Micra's looks

Nissan has tried to make Micra as stylish a small hatchback as possible. Dashing headlamps and fog lamps placed next to the front grille, body coloured bumpers, body-coloured door mirrors, alloy wheels, silver finish door handles and tinted front headlamps covers, etc lend Micra great looks.

Micra's fuel efficiency

The petrol variants with a 1.2L, 1240cc petrol engine will provide a 13.5kmpl mileage in the city and 18.6kmpl mileage on highways. The other petrol variant would give a 12kmpl mileage in the city and 16.5kmpl mileage on highways.
