Nissan Grand Livina Malaysia Generations — L10 vs L11
L10 (2006–2013): HR16DE 1.6L or MR18DE 1.8L with 4-speed AT — older, simpler mechanically. L11 (2013–2019): HR16DE 1.6L with CVT — more fuel efficient but CVT adds a maintenance requirement. Both are 7-seaters with 2+3+2 seating. L11 CVT is the better daily driver for fuel economy; L10 AT is simpler to maintain at high mileage. For buying used: check CVT history on L11 carefully; L10 AT is more forgiving of maintenance neglect. Discontinued 2019 — parts still available.
