The changes made to the Serena Nismo is claimed to offer "head-turning styling and exhilarating performance without sacrificing the base model’s family-friendly, utilitarian nature". It features the typical Nismo body kit that comprises of an aggressive front apron with custom aero parts and signature red accents, a larger V-motion grille, side skirts, larger diamond cut alloy wheels, and a bold rear bumper with a diffuser.
