NEW NISSAN MICRA : DETAILED REVIEW AND TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS





The release of Nissan Micra in India was much awaited by car maniacs allover the country. The reason behind this was infact Nissan's reliability and superiority. Perfection in manufacturing, easy-handling and less maintenance cost altogether makes Nissan Micra a top class City car. That itself is the reason why Micra got booked by 1049 customers before its release in India. In India, Nissan has marketed the fourth generation Micra.

The competetors of Nissan Micra in the B+ hatch-back segment are not so weak; they are: Ford Figo, Hyundai i10, Maruti-Suzuki Swift. Whether Micra can withstand the competition from these cars depends upon how Micra performs in the Indian roads.



Today, I'm posting a detailed review of Nissan Micra. Now, let's begin with the design.









Design

The new Nissan Micra is manufactured on the new V-platform which maintains the similarity with the previous generation. The new Nissan Micra is cute and smart with oval shaped headlamps and small clear lens tail lamps. The new Micra has a 'wheels-at-each-corner' stance, which increases its wheelbase to 2450mm and ensures better stability at higher speeds. Compared to the 3rd generation Micra, the wheelbase has been increased by 20mm and the overall length has been increased by 50mm. Thus, the Nissan Micra is 20mm longer than Maruti Swift and has same length as that of Ford Figo which is 3780mm long.

In Nissan's language, dashboard of Micra has 'twin-bubble' design. This refers to the circular instrumentation binnacle and the similarly shaped glovebox compartment on the passenger side. This gives a unique and fresh look to the dashboard. The interior theme of top end model is biege and that of other models is grey. The driver information display in the instrument pannel contains details such as average mileage, distance that can be travelled by the quantity of petrol currently available in the tank etc. The base model of Nissan Micra has Air-conditioning and Power steering.

Nissan cares a lot about the safety of the passengers in the car. Even the base model has airbag. But only the top model features Automatic Climate Control system, Power steering, Power windows, Remote central locking, Steering mounted controls, MP3 music system, Dual SRS Airbags, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and EBD (Electronic Brake Distribution).

The new Nissan Micra has a lot of leg space, ie, about 226Liters. So even a taller person can travel comfortably in it.

The 3 Cylinder engine of Micra is very smooth with lesser noise. The car can be driven at a speed of 20km in the 3rd gear with out knocking.

The compact body and a lower turning radius of 4.65m makes Micra a perfect city car.
