Shadowing Practice: All-New Nissan N7: It's Shockingly Good! - Learn English Speaking with Video

so let's start from the top we have the windshield here

and as you can see integrated in the windshield are some cameras i see two cameras

and a sensor on the side

and we come down to the windscreen it has a very wide windscreen

which is nicely slanted and let's take a look at the wipers

so the washer fluid is integrated in a pipe hidden under the wiper blades and

so it's not going to spray water from anywhere as you

can see there is no outlet for wiper fluid it's all integrated

and so it's going to wipe just the area

that is wiped by the wiper blades so that's really nice

and if we take a look at the bonnet the bonnet has a very nice flat surface

and it only slants on the edges which is normal

and we come down here we can see the chassis number nicely displayed there

and let's look at the headlamps so the headlights are very interesting

so you have daytime running lights from here

and then the middle all across to the other side and you also have this multifunctional

led screen area and you can make changes on the screen

and that will display here like a message like hi

or any other message that you want to send across

and integrated in this bonnet area is a speaker

that you can use to call or announce to somebody outside the car

or talk to somebody outside a car so that's really nice

and then you have your headlamps here very very flat

but it's going to illuminate the road really really well

because they're all leds and then we come down here you have some nice grill down here

which is going to allow air in to cool the radiators for the battery cooling system

or and all that kind of stuff the ac as well

and then we come to the front here

and we have your number placement area right here you get a camera here

and you get an illuminated beautifully illuminated Nissan badge the new

badging that's going on for Nissan we got some piano black material plastic here

and then you got your parking sensors down there

and you have a radar sensor down here as well all

looking really really nice I like the front of this car what do you think leave a message

and share what you think of it when we went to the side

and you have integrated in there is Nissan Badging they want you to know

that this is a Nissan and they are changing

and we come to the tire department

so this comes with 19 inch rim tire as you can see right there

so 255 45 rim 19 and the speed rating is 96 v

so some power speed right there

and you have a very nice wheel i like the design

of this wheel it's not air suspension it's conventional suspension

but looks really nice and the tire size just fits this car perfectly so we go on to the side.

Pardon me if it's noisy.

Let me just step back so we can see the profile of this car.

This car is quite popular here so people are looking at it

and then we have a camera here under the rear view mirror.

We have a turn signal indicator here

and we have a conventional style rear view mirror

which is integrated with blind spot monitoring as you can see right there

and you can see that the windows are slightly tinted from factory

and just like many cars now it has this pop out style door handles

which is really nice i'm just going to go around the car first

and come back to the interior so

if i open you can see it comes with frameless windows really really nice

and then we go on to uh the bottom so

when i open the door it doesn't go all the way down

but it goes just enough to have uh you stepping in the car without soiling your your clothes

but it would be nice if it was

if it would go much lower but as you can see

if the electronics fail you can actually still use the key

which is nice

and then we go on to the back as we go

on to the back you can see the car is getting bolder

and we have the rear door which opens really really wide as well

and we come down to the rear

and it also comes with a 19 inch rim and tire

and then you have this area for charging

so you press to open nothing electronic here which i really like

so you got fast charging here a fast charging port

and a slow charging port right there which is really nice

so this car charges from 20 to 80 percent in 14 minutes that's one full

and then from 10 to 80 percent in 19 minutes

so that's some really fast charging there

and we come to the back as you can see it has a very wide body in the back

and I like the styling it looks really cool we're going to look at the boot space in a minute

and see why that is important

but let's look at the lighting display on the rear looking really really nice some animation going on there

integrated in the light bar the rear light bar i of reverse lights

and you can see the nissan badge is illuminated as well

and there's this nice badge this nice brake light bar

or daytime running light bar across from the left to the right just like the one in front

and then we come down here you have a button here for opening the boot

but you can also do it from inside the car

and you come down here the number plates placement rather than

being put on the bonnet is put right below it

and there is a camera there as well

and you have your parking sensors all integrated in this wide piano black plastic on the bottom

and you have some reflectors on both the left and the right so

if i just step back we can see what the rear

looks like i think it looks beautiful what do you think

and if we come up here we have the usual brake light integrated there

and we also have a camera up there as well to help with the autonomous driving

and safety stuff and if we go on to the other side

so the other side is going to be similar to the driver's side

that i just showed so i'll just step back

so we can take a look at the profile of this

car i think it looks really really beautiful it almost doesn't feel like a Nissan everybody's stepping up their game so

100

let's look at the interior now I'm just going to start

101

from the boot he's opening the boot electronically through voice activation

102

because this is a showroom display a lot of functions are turned off for safety

103

so when you open the boot it's not a hatch it's a sedan style boot but it opens quite high

104

and so you're not going to hit your head

105

but let's take a look at the room in there it's very very deep

106

so that's really nice for loading up stuff for the whole family

107

and the car itself is not too low so it's not too bad

108

if you're loading things up but it has this ridge lip here

109

which is going to make it difficult to drag heavy things out

110

but it's all just torque i believe it's possible to just pull things out

111

if you really mean to and then in there you have some extra storage space.

112

What I like is it's also lined with filters.

113

Well most cars will just have some sort of flingy material

114

or metal but it's come with some carpet material where you can store extra stuff so that's really nice.

115

The boot space itself, the boot compartment itself is really really wide

116

and that's really nice and as you can see you have a speaker grill right there.

117

Your subwoofer It's not covered, but I think it will do just as good.

118

I would have preferred it to be covered in a way, but it's just bare with no covering at all.

119

And then you get your lighting in there, just one light on the other side.

120

So you get a subwoofer here and you get some speakers on the left and on the right.

121

This car comes with 14 speakers in total.

122

So that's going to give you some really nice, amazing sound.

123

I heard the sound earlier and it was really amazing.

124

And it's a good thing that they have push button to shut it.

125

So I just push it and then it shuts.

126

You don't have to do it manually.

127

So that's a really nice touch to it.

128

So after looking at the boot, let's look at the interior.

129

Let's go into the rear seat.

130

So you just pull to open.

131

The doors are not too heavy, but it shuts quite nicely.

132

not like traditional Nissan doors

133

so the door also this the rear door also opens to about 65-70%

134

but that's not a problem because as you can see it has a wide opening

135

so it doesn't have to go more than that but

136

if you look here this is not a double glazing glass

137

but it's thick enough so it's going to stop a lot of noise from coming

138

and as you can see here in detail the sound deadening seems to be quite nice

139

so let's look at the door and how it looks

140

so up here you have some nice material I'm not sure

141

if it's an upper leather but it's kind of soft

142

and then you come down here and have very soft material in this nice stitching

143

and as you can see in there there's some ambient lighting coming from in there

144

but this is plastic but it's some kind of nice soft plastic

145

that goes when you press it

146

and you have your window opening button you have your handle to shut the doors

147

and then you also have a button here to push to open the doors electronically

148

but when that fails you have a lever here you press in

149

and then there's a pop out and you can pull it open the door

150

and as you look as you go down you will see

151

that this part is plastic but it's i think it's nice to have plastic here

152

because when you're getting it out of the car you're gonna hit your hair your feet

153

and your shoes are gonna make it dirty

154

so it's not advisable to put some nice soft material there

155

and then you have a speaker grill here really nice so

156

and down here as you can see it has a wide opening

157

and before i get in let's take a look at the seats

158

so the seats have very nice head rests very very soft

159

and supportive and when you come down here you have some very thick alcantara

160

and then here you have perforated napa leather and you go to the bum area you have perforated

161

napa leather as well and on the side you have some supportive leather going on

162

and you have your seat belt and

163

if you can see the seat has been extended to overlap the plastic

164

and so it's going to give more room to the passenger sitting in the back

165

and let's take a look at the leg room

166

so you can see that it's very very spacious

167

and the floor is completely flat so passengers are going to be comfortable in here

168

and the driver's seat is configured for my driving position

169

and I'm 183 centimeters tall

170

and as you can see I'm riding I'm wearing my riding boots

171

but they fit under the seat

172

and I have way more room to relax in the back it's really comfortable

173

and as you can see no need talking about the knee space it's just calvinus

174

and the seats are quite elongated as well and

175

so i have a lot of thigh support

176

and they are they're one of the most comfortable seats i've sat on in the car in quite a

177

while very very soft seats very comfortable to sit in

178

or to sit on and the center the middle seat is is a flat bench style seat

179

and so there's a lot of space

180

and it's flat as well

181

so the middle passenger is not going to complain my only thing is

182

when you drop this hand rest the center hand rest it

183

doesn't stop above the seat it sits on the seat and

184

so after a while you're gonna have some markings of the seat

185

but hey I guess the engineers

186

that they're working they know over a long period it's not going to be a problem

187

but when you have this down you have two cup holders very conventional

188

but I just like the color of the interior looks really nice

189

and the area where you rest your hands is very very soft

190

and squishy it's almost like a mattress a sleeping mattress very very nice I like

191

that and if we just push it back you have your headrest for the middle seat

192

and let me show the opposite side to appreciate the rear seats better

193

and if you look up there you can see

194

that there there's a nice bar going all across from the back

195

and it's all alcantara as well

196

and before i say anything else let me look at the panoramic sunroof

197

so it's a whole glass piece one piece stretching from the

198

rear all the way to the front you have isofix anchor points hiding in there

199

and my finger can reach it it's hidden away from this level down is all plastic

200

but once you get up there it's all alcantara

201

so as you can see alcantara on the side of the roof

202

and you have some grab handles

203

and you have interior lighting here you have this microphone right here

204

and if i just sit in the middle

205

so we can take a look at the the back of the front seats

206

so you have this massive headrest for the driver we'll see in a mini why the driver's headrest is important

207

but it's got the same design as the front passenger seats

208

and then if we look in the rear there's this plastic here very soft material the same material

209

that is in the door

210

that i talked about earlier is also here in this rigged design

211

and it feels good to the touch and you have a hole here

212

so you can look through to the front it's not going

213

to be close it's going to help with claustrophobic people with that condition

214

and now you come here you have the same alcantara material also continues to the back here

215

and then in the middle here you have napa leather

216

and then you go down here and it's plastic and you have some

217

storage area behind the seats as well

218

and as already mentioned the floor is completely flat and

219

if we look here we have one u type c charging port

220

and then you have conventional air vents for the rear passengers two-way

221

so that's going to be comfortable for every passenger so

222

if you're sitting at the back this is what you're going to see i'm sitting in the middle seat and even

223

if i sit on the seat near the door i can

224

see as an adult i can see the screen in front very clearly

225

so if the car is packed and you have some entertainment going on on the screen even kids

226

just move your heads a little bit and they can see what's going on

227

so that's really nice very very spacious rear seats now let's move into the front

228

and take a look at what the front looks like

229

and now we're moving into the front area

230

so same thing i open the door

231

and then the door configuration is very similar to

232

that on the rear but you have extra functions obviously for the driver

233

so four buttons for controlling all the four windows

234

and then door lock unlock button

235

and then also a button for locking the rear windows especially for kids

236

and then you have your button for opening the door

237

and you have the redundant one for a true lever for opening the door also opens to about

238

80 for the driver so a little bit wider but as you can see it has a very wide opening

239

and before I step in let's take a look at it it's

240

so wide it's going to be comfortable for any size to get in this car

241

so you have all your buttons here for controlling the seats the lumber support

242

and all those are right there so this one for moving forwards

243

and backs is very very quick and the motor is not noisy

244

so that's nice and then you also have this one for controlling

245

the seat forward and back the backrest and you also have thigh support here

246

so this thigh support instead of an overlapping seat

247

that pops out this one has sort of balloons in there

248

that will inflate and deflate to configure according to your input from the buttons.

249

So that's really nice.

250

And as you can see, you have your conventional accelerator paddle and your brake paddle right there.

251

And it's very, very spacious in there as well.

252

And you have a button here for popping up the bonnet there's no space in the bonnet

253

so I'm not just going to go there it's all covered in plastic where you have your fluids

254

and all that but let's take a look at the seat

255

so I mentioned earlier why you will see the importance of the why the headrest is huge

256

so the drivers is integrated in in the driver's headrest are integrated some speakers

257

so when you don't want the whole car to hear the announcement of the navigation

258

or things like that you can direct the sound to the driver's headrest

259

and only the driver can hear that so that's really nice

260

but look at this seat it's so

261

so beautiful beautifully done in these beautiful colors

262

so you have the Nissan badge in there get some aluminum

263

in there you have your Alcantara good for no sliding around you have your perforated

264

napa leather seats and on the side you have very nice soft support

265

and this seat comes with some ai function that can actually hug you

266

and depending on your size it's all done on the screen there

267

and it can be set

268

so once you sit in the car it hugs you all these side supports will inflate

269

and deflate to configure your body size and that's a really neat function so if i just step in this car

270

and so the seat is moving me towards to the setting

271

that has been set but this is too close

272

because it's not my car

273

so i'm just going to move myself back let's start the front door from the top

274

so if we look up here we have a very wide sun visor and i like that with the

275

vanity mirror you just pull down this plastic tab

276

and it it opens to this nice mirror with lights on the side to illuminate your feet your face

277

and the panel here is very very wide i don't know

278

if it's necessary to be this wide because on the side is plastic

279

and plastic but hey the designer knows what you're doing

280

and then you just push it back very very easy

281

and then you push it it's all very nice to touch

282

it's all alcantara all around the top of the vehicle

283

so that's really nice and

284

if you look here you can see it has this circular sort of design language

285

which gives it more space so it's very very spacious to move about this car

286

and we come down to the dash area

287

so the dash has plastic on the top with a speaker grille in the middle

288

and as you come down you have

289

you come down to this nice squishy material

290

and we come to the speaker area so these are pop up

291

or pop out speakers so when the car is off they shut down they go down

292

and when you turn it on the rise to allow the sound out really really nice

293

and then you have some nice conventional air vents here

294

and air vents on the other side in the middle too

295

and from the dash you come to the middle

296

so this car has no hud

297

but this screen is just nicely placed in your line of your line of sights

298

and so you can see your speed right in the middle

299

and your gear right in the middle and time

300

and there's nothing blocking the view so you can easily read whatever is going on

301

and get all the information you need so that's really nice and it gives you all your charging information your

302

range that is left

303

and you have these screens here just like many other cars now to read the driver's level of tiredness

304

and other functions there is also another camera here

305

that does similar functions to read the driver's level of tiredness to monitor what's on in the car

306

and to notify you when there's a kid

307

or an animal left in the car and stuff like that

308

and i mentioned earlier that there's a speaker in front beneath the bonnet

309

and so if you leave your phone i was told

310

if you leave your phone on the charging pad

311

and you leave in the car after a few seconds the car will notify you through the loudspeakers

312

that you've left your phone on the charging pad

313

so you come back for it or if you leave a pet

314

or a baby

315

or somebody in the car it will notify you just to make sure the person is safe

316

so that's really nice

317

so from this screen let's come to the steering let's start with the lever

318

so conventional levers here for turn signals and your wipers

319

and things like that and then on the right is a gear lever stock very conventional

320

and you just press p to park

321

so reverse is up neutral in the middle and drive is down

322

and we go down to the steering itself

323

so it's a very nice conventional size steering wheel but it has a slight

324

are flattening at the bottom and on the top

325

and it feels very good in the hand

326

and i like this two-tone design of this so it's got dark gray

327

and light gray very very nice and pleasing to the eye

328

and you have your nissan badge in here with the horn with airbag of course

329

and then you have this tesla style routers

330

which most brands are doing for controlling different functions

331

but as you can see you have your drive mode here

332

you have your some other external extra modes you have your

333

voice activation favorites button navigation buttons all really really nice

334

and i like how the steering looks steering wheel looks

335

and feels very nice stitching here as well

336

and it's very very soft to the touch all very very nice i might be saying lots of very nice

337

but i just i'm just

338

enjoying the beauty of this interior and then we go onto the screen

339

and we have a slightly above 15 inch we can see 15 inch screen there's still plastic on it

340

so you you might not see how crisp it is but

341

if i go to so if i press

342

that it pushes out all the windows

343

and then it continues all the functions from where it left off

344

so i can close this also movie right there

345

and then you have a home button here so you're usually

346

or mostly use functions you can populate them down here for easy access

347

and then you have your navigation button here also looking really clear and then you have

348

this one that activates the radar to be able to read your surroundings

349

and then you go here where you can do changes for

350

all the functionality of the car Nissan also has in-house child seats

351

that can be controlled on the app and on this screen as well

352

but that's for those who have families not everyone will need

353

that so you do all the car controls from here so you have

354

this button will bring you information about the windows the lighting

355

and things like that and this one those screens

356

that i showed in the beginning on the bonnet you can

357

control them from here you can write your own message somewhere

358

so window controls you can have seat controls

359

and over here you have controls for the fridge

360

which i'll show you in a second

361

so there's a fridge in this sedan ev and you can control the temperature from here

362

for the fridge and down here you have controls for the steering wheel the driving mirrors

363

and over here controls for your surroundings

364

and you go down there for the child seats function

365

so all really nice and you have your button here to populate all your apps

366

that are installed in this car

367

and as you can see you have your camera interior camera

368

that i spoke about just a while ago

369

and let's see you have your music you have all the apps that you need for

370

this vehicle so that's really you have apple carplay hi car from huawei

371

and many other functions so

372

if you also have another button here for you can actually switch things around

373

which is really really nice

374

and you can actually split the screen as well to give you some extra functionality

375

and you just press this to go back home

376

and your i like that the temperature controls are placed right in the middle

377

so even the passenger can control them whilst driving really nice

378

and they are always there so it's very easy to hit

379

that and then you also have a hot key for

380

or hot button for controlling your ventilator seats heater seats

381

and stuff like that massaging and all that

382

and you also have this button that i just spoke about you can split the screen

383

and use switch it from side to side to change the size

384

and you can hit it to go back to one screen mode

385

and then you also have air circulation air in the car

386

and stuff like that to direct the flow of air

387

and then you have the windshield heating or defrosting

388

so lots of functions on the screen

389

and up here you can see your profile lock unlock bluetooth 4g is 5g ready

390

but currently showing 4g and you can see the car is connected to wi-fi for updates

391

and stuff like that and it also has a ktv function

392

so when you want to sing you can have a ktv function

393

and you don't needs to connect speakers it'll pick the sound from the speakers in the car

394

and down here you have i could talk about this screen all day so let's move on you you have nice

395

events coming from uh they're very very slim

396

but they look really really nice and they're blowing out some nice cool air

397

and as we could go to the front passenger area it's basically the same configuration

398

and then you also have a glove box it's not lined with felt

399

but if you want you can just buy some nice felt

400

and put it in there but i don't know if that's necessary

401

and i like that it's not open by any electronic means

402

but you just press a button to open it

403

so let's take a look at front passenger seat real quick

404

which is configured similar to that of the driver's seat

405

and the only difference here is it doesn't have the speaker of course only the driver has it

406

but as you can see it's plus it's alcantara all the way here

407

and then from here it's all plastic down

408

but as long as they don't rattle it's good enough

409

and you can see

410

that the front passenger has a nice foot well for their feet now let's come to the center area

411

so this is a 50 watt wireless charging pad and

412

it also comes with air vents to cool the phone

413

while charging and you have another area for placing another phone

414

and then in the middle you have some cup holders

415

and it has these rubber materials on top of it to stop things from moving about

416

but when you insert a bottle or any cup

417

or whatever you can push it down and it clicks in place

418

when you're not using it you just press these buttons here

419

and then you're going to come up and then you can place something here

420

so it doesn't fall in so that's nice to give it a very nice clean look

421

and this is the fridge area

422

so unfortunately the passenger cannot open only the driver can open from this side

423

so you press this to open

424

and like i showed you earlier you control the temperature of the fridge from the infotainment screen

425

and it's already very cold i feel cold in here i don't know if you can see my hands are

426

wet from the fridge and it's heated and cooled as well

427

so the temperature can go from minus six to plus 55 degrees

428

so it doesn't matter if you want hot

429

or cold you can use this fridge for that

430

and you can see they're storing some advertisement drinks here and it's not the biggest fridge but

431

little little drains or baby feed or feeding bottles and things like

432

that small bottles of water will be enough to cool

433

or heat here

434

so that's really nice the only downside is the passenger front

435

passenger cannot open from their side it's only openable from the driver's side

436

but hey if the passenger wants to you can just move your head

437

and grab something and shut it so

438

that is not a deal breaker in my opinion

439

and down here you have some extra storage

440

which also comes with a shared type c port where you can connect extra accessories

441

or usbs to download or install stuff

442

and you have another one dedicated for charging and you have extra space storage here as well

443

so overall done really really nicely

444

and up here we have touch sensitive interior lighting buttons you have an sos button right here

445

and you have the hazard button here

446

and this hole here two holes here serving as microphones so that's really nice and you have your nice

447

rear view mirror so it's just a conventional rear view mirror with a switch here for when

448

high beams are coming from the back. so so

449

all right guys so

450

that was a quick tour of the brand newly released Nissan

451

N7 Nissan's attempt at getting back at the Chinese brands for the advancement in the EV technology

452

that the Chinese cars are coming up with now.

453

I think this is a very very nice entry by Nissan in the Chinese market

454

and I hope this car goes global as well

455

but for now I'm told it's only being released in the Chinese market

456

and already I'm told there are about 20,000 orders for this car and deliveries will start soon.

457

So yeah I hope you like this video.

458

I really really love this car.

459

Tell me what you think in the comment section.

460

Is it a kind of car you would like to get?

461

I've always known Nissan to be a good brand

462

but I've always known them also to make cars

463

that are a little bit boring especially on the inside

464

but this one I have to tell you looks

465

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
