The initial feeling upon entering the cabin is one of mediocrity. The use of the real aluminum trim doesn't outweigh the decision to use low-grade plastics throughout the cabin. Soft touch surfaces are used on only the upper dash, door inserts, arm-rest and center console lid. The leather doesn't have a supple feel of a car in this category either. Nissan needs to work on designing an interior that can communicate an upscale feel such as the exterior design does. Simply upgrading or limiting the use of plastics would accomplish this.
