Nissan Primera Third generation dimensions 2001–2008

The Nissan Primera Third generation (2001–2008) is 456.5 cm long, 176 cm wide and 148 cm tall, with a 270.4 cm wheelbase. That makes it about 7 cm shorter than the average estate in our guide (463 cm across 123 versions). In size it is closest to the Škoda Octavia Estate (2004, same length), the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate (2007, 1.7 cm longer) and the Audi A4 (2000, 2.1 cm shorter).

Will the Nissan Primera fit?

UK parking bay 4.8 × 2.4 m

Fits, but tight

It fits inside the lines (23.5 cm spare in length), but at 196 cm wide (est.) including mirrors only about 22 cm is left each side — expect to squeeze out if cars park either side.

UK single garage 4.8 × 2.4 m, 7 ft door

Fits, but tight

Little room to walk round; not enough width to open the doors fully. Height 148 cm vs a 198 cm door.

Will it fit my garage?

Assumes a UK standard parking bay of 4.8 × 2.4 m and a typical UK single garage of 4.8 × 2.4 m inside (2.1 m high) with a 7 ft × 6 ft 6 in (213 × 198 cm) up-and-over door. Where we have no width-with-mirrors figure we add 20 cm to the body width. “Comfortably” leaves about 60 cm to walk round and open a door; “tight” means it goes in but getting out is awkward. Garages and bays vary a lot — measure yours and use the garage fit checker. For guidance only.
