Nissan India today launched the New Micra with a host of intelligent features and sporty enhancements. The New ‘Intelligent & Sporty’ Micra is available at a starting price of INR. 5.98 lakhs, ex-showroom Chennai.
The Nissan Micra, known in India for its European styling and driving comfort, now comes loaded with class-leading features such as auto headlamps, rain sensing wipers and ‘lead me to car’. These newly-added features in the New Micra augment the intelligent and premium attractiveness of the car, which offers outstanding driving comfort and confidence to Micra customers.
The New Micra’s interior accentuates the car’s sporty side with its striking new European black theme with enhanced piano black finish accompanied by orange accents on the seats, dashboard and arm rest. The ambience of the New Micra was conceived to energize the mood of its occupants.
