Nissan Philippines Inc. (NPI) has given its turbocharged sedan a subtle glow-up. The automaker has just revealed the 2024 Almera VL Sport, a new top-of-the-line variant with an extra dose of sportiness.

From its namesake, the Almera VL Sport gets an exterior upgrade courtesy of a new gloss black front grille complete with a Sport badge, a sleek wraparound body kit that consists of a front lip, side skirts, and a rear bumper upgrade, and a trunk-mounted spoiler that adds to the sedan's sportier appearance.

Inside, Nissan also put black leather seats with Sport embroidery, reddish-orange contrast stitching on the instrument panel, and gray leather door trims. Like the other Almera variants, the new VL Sport comes with NissanConnected Services for extra peace of mind on the road. As mentioned before, it comes with smart features like Walk-Away Lock and Approach Unlock.

“The Almera VL Sport is our way of giving our customers more options when it comes to style and convenience. It's packed with features that make everyday driving more fun and easy. We're excited for our customers to experience it,” Yasuhisa Masuda, president of NPI.

The Nissan Almera is available in Nissan dealerships nationwide in four versions: VL Sport CVT, VL CVT, VE CVT, and EL MT. Pricing for the Almera lineup starts at PHP 845,000 for the EL variant, with the top-of-the-line VL Sport priced at PHP 1,195,000
