Road Test Review: 2010 Nissan Micra K13 for India with price, specs, performance figures and other details
First Impressions
With an on-road price that will range between Rs. 4 lakh to Rs. 6-lakh (Pune), the Micra seems to be a worthy competitor in the bunch of heavyweights that are dominating the evergreen small car segment in India. It is pretty evident with the 1,500 pre-launch booking of the car! However, the tax bracket has once again taken a toll on what could have been an enthusiast’s car, and what we are left with is yet another small car with a puny 1.2-litre engine. However, the Micra holds its ground (and rather strongly) with a fresh unisex design, a lot of functionality and features cleverly packed throughout its variants and more importantly – the trademark Japanese reliability that you can expect form a brand like Nissan. And since it’s the Japanese giant’s first (and most awaited) mass-production offering for India, all of us can rest assured that the Micra could be a serious game changer in the times to come. Or will it? Stay tuned to Motoroids.com as we soon announce the Micra’s battle with its cheapest nemesis – the Ford Figo!
