  • The Nissan Micra has had a lot of transformations its 30-year life - but the latest could be the most radical yet. Yes, the formerly cheap-and-cheerful small car has gone upmarket, so does it now mix it with the best in class?

    I have the 0.9 Acenta turbo and choose it over the Polo which it also replaced. The road handling is superb and once that turbo kicks in it is pretty rapid. The Polo is a bit bland in its looks which is something you can not say about the Micra. It also has impressive features like cornering assistance which lightly brakes the inside wheels when cornering at speed. Automatic lights, wipers and collision avoidance together with lane departure warning and assistance, road sign recognition, emergency brake assist and cruise control. It regularly returns over 45mpg over mixed driving and I have managed just under 60 on a long run through the B roads. To me the rear seats are not an issue as I don't carry passengers. The Micra was also quite a lot cheaper than the Polo and comes with more kit. It's pearlescent orange paint looks fantastic and is a real head turner especially with the large black alloys and black trim panels.
    So for someone who had the Polo and looked at a replacement, the Micra was definitely a very good choice. Do not rule this little car out.

    I've tried the 1.5 litre DCI of The Nissan Micra DCI 2008 model and it's fantastic. I would recommend The 1.5 DCI turbodiesel today. A small car which you can take from The Highlands to Hampshire easily and park in any NCP bay.

    I got my 2018 micra n connecta a few months ago after test driving it for a week and loved the way it drove! I have the 0.9 turbo and it is very quick and nippy around town and nice to drive on motorways. Definitely does 0-60 quicker than is said and the mpg is good. And it is a nice car to look at. I found the vw polo very boring and looks wise it hasn’t changed in years!

    2 year user here. I'll go straight to the point.
    Pros: fuel economy, power, handling, seating comfort, AC for making the car cooler during summer, braking, reliability.
    Cons: internal noises [plastic, vibrations], very slow internal heating, cannot use electrical windows without turnin on electrical power with the key, wind noise [recently], license plate holder [vibration and noise, i've changed with anoter model's one].
    I'll buy this car again: HELL NO, i hate plastic vibration on a new car.
    Buy if: you are a young boy who runs a lot with the music at max volume and wants to have style without busting the bank. Or if you make A LOT of km, always with high music on.
    Avoid if: you enjoy silence and chill travel [like me 😢]

    • @damianit
      @damianit 4 роки тому +1

      There is one big reason why not to buy a Mazda 2: They deactivate the touch function of the display during driving and you have to control the media system most of the time with the middle console... For me it's a no go. BMW already failed with this idea. On top of that the Mazda 2 drives too linear (to be more co2 efficient = less fun).

    It just looks like the Nissan Kicks that is available in North America, but in a smaller package. We have the Micra here in Canada, but it is only the K13 model with a 1.6L 4cyl engine, not this newer one. Also, I find it strange how many of these European budget cars have power windows at the front, but only manual windows at the back, even on top-trim models.

      Ashwin Narasimhan yeah but how many of them do you see ? Here in Europe you see Fiat 500’s everywhere where as in the us you barely see any . That’s also because they have small engines that just can’t keep up with American traffic

    • @crashbox7130

    • @ashwinnarasimhan2729
      @ashwinnarasimhan2729 5 років тому

      Even within Europe there are differences in local markets. In Rome Fiat 500s, Smart Cars, and Mini Coopers were the norm but in smaller cities and suburbs like Verona and Pescia del Garda I saw way more SUVs (Nissan Qashqai seemed most popular) and large wagons/sportbacks like Panameras and Subaru Outbacks.

    The New Nissan Micra is the replacement for the old Micra AND the Nissan Note and is intended to compete with the Fiesta.
    This review says it fails in all but looks.
    The Note in particular was a 'tardis' with so much more space. It had electric rear windows on most models and a wonderful 1.2 supercharged engine. Neither are available on the Micra, which will cost more than £22,000 for a so called 'fully loaded' version.
    I'm bewildered that intelligent people inside Nissan's management went this way, and seem to have concluded that 'looks are all that matter'
    Quite an insulting attitude to people with brains.
    How do you get it right? New Seat Ibiza! (or 2018 i20)

Looks ugly as shit though which is why i wouldn't buy one. And i do agree with the gears, i get its a 1 litre but fuckin hell its slow in 4th. Personally like the previous model and no real complaints with that.
