The {{Nihongo|Nissan Serena|日産・セレナ|Nissan Serena|lead=yes}} is a minivan manufactured by Nissan, joining the slightly larger Vanette. The car was engineered by Nissan's Aichi Manufacturing Division and launched in 1991 as a compact passenger van, and it grew larger with each generation over the years. Earlier versions were front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout with a live axle mounted on leaf springs, while the following generations are front-wheel drive or 4WD.

The Serena is designed to comply with Japanese vehicle class, which means its external dimensions are restricted to 4.7 meters in length and 1.7 meters in width. It slots below the larger Nissan Elgrand in Japan as a smaller, cheaper alternative. Competitors include the Toyota Noah, the Honda Stepwgn, and the Mitsubishi Delica.

Its name is from the Latin word "serēnus", meaning "clear, tranquil, pleasant".

The Serena was rebadged and marketed by Suzuki as the {{Nihongo|Suzuki Landy|スズキ・ランディ|Suzuki Randi|lead=yes}} between 2007 and 2022.{{cite web|url=https://www.suzuki.co.jp/car/landy/|title=ランディ|スズキ|date=January 27, 2021|website=suzuki.co.jp|publisher=Suzuki Motor Corporation|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210113140757/https://www.suzuki.co.jp/car/landy/|archive-date=January 13, 2021|url-status=live|access-date=March 29, 2021}} The Serena based Landy was discontinued and replaced by an all-new version that is now based on the Toyota Noah starting in 2022, when the fourth generation Noah was released.

As with the larger Elgrand, Autech offers a tuned, modified version of the Serena.

Models were manufactured in Japan from 1991 onwards, and many were imported into Australasia and the United Kingdom. Nissan produced many different trim levels - FX, SX etc. Full-Auto (full-time) 4WD versions were also produced providing greater stability and better handling. The naturally aspirated 2.3 L diesel was never manufactured for the Japanese market and its seating arrangement and interior fittings are not the same as the 2.0 L petrol (SR20DE), 2.0 L diesel CD20 and turbo-diesel CD20T models manufactured in Japan for the local market. It was exclusive to Japanese Nissan dealerships called Nissan Bluebird Store.

Throughout its production the C23 model underwent several facelifts although the interior design and body largely remained unchanged, for example, addition of airbags and bench seats for the second and third rows. Each facelift model can be identified by front grille design which was updated in 1994 and 1997.

In European markets, the C23 Serena had 1.6 or 2.0 L petrols, or 2.3 L diesel engines LD23. Trim levels were LX, SLX, SGX and SGXi. Auto Express once named the Serena as the slowest passenger car in the benchmark 0-60 mph (now 62 mph) test, with the 2.3 L diesel version (added in the mid 1990s) taking 27.8 seconds to reach that speed.

Until around 2002, the most common petrol engine was the SR20DE, accompanied by the 1.6-litre GA16DE. A variety of other engines were used over the years, including diesels specifically the CD20 (for the commercial van version), CD20T 1,973 cc Diesel Turbo, and the CD20ET.

= Europe =

The Nissan Vanette was a series of small vans manufactured in Spain by Nissan alongside the European market Serena models. The van was produced in two versions, the Vanette E, which shared the basic body shell with the Nissan Serena people carrier, differing only in not having rear windows and passenger seats, and the Vanette Cargo, which was longer and had a higher roof line from behind the front seats.

In June 1998, LDV Group entered into an agreement with Nissan to sell a rebranded version of the Vanette Cargo.{{cite web|url=http://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/1998/6/24/ldv-to-launch-own-version-of-nissan-cargo-one-tonne-van/3517/|title=LDV to launch own version of Nissan Cargo one-tonne van|publisher=Bauer Consumer Media Ltd|website=FleetNews UK|date=24 June 1998|access-date=27 September 2015}} This was named the LDV Cub and was sold alongside the Vanette in Britain. The model was discontinued in 2001 and replaced by a rebadged version of the Renault Trafic called the Nissan Primastar, which is produced in Luton, England and Barcelona, Spain.

= Reputation =

The Nissan Serena Mk1 is said to have an image problem by some, in particular Fifth Gear presenter Quentin Willson, who remarked in a 1997 Top Gear episode that "...the Nissan Serena was about as seductive as a skip and as desirable as an old shoe."

By 2000, the Nissan Serena was described as the worst new car sale on Britain, by Top Gear's Buyers Guide, with "absolutely nothing to recommend it for".

Although the Nissan Serena handles better than most people expect it to (due to its mid-mounted engine), its power-to-weight ratio is particularly poor, as shown by the 0–100 km/h averages listed below. For those wanting performance cars, the only models with marginally acceptable acceleration are powered by the SR20DE engine, but all models are acceptable for the target family-car user, as shown by sales figures.

= Nissan Largo =

Largo was the model name used for a Nissan passenger van based on the C23 Serena between 1992 and 1998. Unlike the previous Largo, which was essentially a widened C22 Nissan Vanette, the W30 Largo was a totally rebodied, wider Serena with more equipment such as four-wheel-drive. It was exclusive to Nissan Satio Store locations as a large load carrying vehicle next to the Sunny. The Largo was available with either a 2.4-litre petrol or a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel, both mid engined (under the front seats).

The second-generation Serena was launched in Japan in June 1999, ditched the rear-wheel drive layout in favour of front-wheel drive construction. These versions had a facelift with a wider variety of engines and colours. From December 2001 onwards (the time of the facelift) the Serena used the QR20DE and QR25DE. The pre-facelift C24 Serenas all have a 2.0 L engine, with the optional 2.5 L engine becoming available from 2002. With the partnership between Nissan and Renault having been implemented, Nissan MPVs were withdrawn from Europe where Renault products, like the Renault Espace and Renault Scénic were sold and better accepted.

Indonesian-market cars use the 2.0 L QR20DE inline-four petrol engine. The trims available in Indonesia are Comfort Touring, Highway Star, and Autech. The Comfort Touring trim-level does not come equipped with electric sliding door and reverse camera, while the Highway Star and the Autech do.{{cite web|title=Perbedaan Nissan Serena High Way Star (HWS) dan Nissan Serena City Touring (CT)|url=http://www.autonetrentcar.com/2012/04/perbedaan-nissan-serena-high-way-star-hws-dan-nissan-serena-city-touring-ct/|trans-title=Differences between the Nissan Serena High Way Star (HWS) and the Nissan Serena City Touring (CT) | language = id |date=April 2012 | publisher=autonetrentcar.com|website=autonetrentcar|access-date=6 September 2012}} The C24 Serena was also manufactured by Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn Bhd in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.{{cite web|title=Nissan In Malaysia|url=http://car-cat.com/firm-797.html|website=car-cat|publisher=Car-cat.com|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120502200954/http://car-cat.com/firm-797.html|archive-date=2 May 2012|access-date=25 July 2010}}

In 2007, 2008 and 2009, the Serena C25 was the best selling minivan in Japan.

This model was also sold as the Suzuki Landy in Japan, a practice that is continued with the fourth and fifth generation Serena.

The third generation was discontinued in Japan in late 2010 and in Hong Kong in 2011.

The 2011 Nissan Serena was released in late November 2010 to the Japanese market, equipped with a new 2.0-litre MR20DD direct injection inline-four petrol engine.{{Cite web | url=https://global.nissannews.com/en/releases/release-0f2c827fb008119fcd2b85ad7aa2658e-101108-01-e | title=Nissan Releases All-New Serena Minivan | date=7 November 2010 }} This model was sold in Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Indonesia.{{cite web|title=Nissan Serena Terbaru Resmi Diluncurkan|url=http://oto.detik.com/read/2013/01/08/140407/2136183/1207/nissan-serena-terbaru-resmi-diluncurkan|work=detik.com|publisher=detikOto|access-date=9 February 2013}}

In August 2012, Nissan added their newly developed simple hybrid system called Smart Simple Hybrid or S-HYBRID. The Nissan Serena C26 S-HYBRID has its regeneration capacity and output power of the Eco Motor, which is an alternator that is used for Nissan's Serena having an idling stop mechanism and capable of restarting an engine, upgraded. Nissan added a lead sub-battery in the engine room for extended energy regeneration capacity.{{citation needed|date=June 2017}} The Serena has a fuel economy of 15.2 km/L (approx 35.8 mpg) under the JC08 test mode.{{cite web | url = http://techon.nikkeibp.co.jp/english/NEWS_EN/20120720/229513/ | title = Nissan Mounts Simple Hybrid System in New Minivan | work = Tech-On! | publisher = Nikkei Business Publications Inc | first = Yoshiro | last = Tsuruhara | date = 20 July 2012 }}

In Indonesia, the C26 Serena was locally assembled and went on sale in January 2013. The Autech version of the Highway Star trim was added in September 2013. The facelift version of the C26 Serena was launched on 13 March 2015.

Nissan unveiled the fifth generation Serena on 6 July 2016, and sales began in Japan on 24 August 2016. The all-new Serena received the ProPilot technology, which does lane centering. The system is designed for highway use, and will only be used in single-lane traffic as a means to keep a car between the lines of a lane on the highway. Nissan's system is operational at speeds between {{convert|30|km/h|mph|abbr=on}} and {{convert|100|km/h|mph|abbr=on}}, and is designed to hold the vehicle in the middle of a lane by reading markers and controlling steering. Propilot can follow curves, and it automatically controls the distance between the vehicle ahead.{{cite web|url=https://www.autoevolution.com/news/nissan-introduces-japan-first-autonomous-drive-feature-on-serena-minivan-109412.html|title=Nissan Introduces Japan' First Autonomous Drive Feature On Serena Minivan| first = Sebastian | last = Toma | date = 13 July 2016|website=autoevolution|access-date=24 June 2019}}
