Run In

Hi I am a proud owner of Nissan Micra Active XV. Its been hardly a week since I got my car delivered. I know its too early to post a review with my limited hands on experience with my car. Still I am posting this with a concern over the performance.

Exterior Mine is an Onyx Black XV Version. I must say Nissan Micra has a huge brand name, especially for the Japanese engine. I believe black is the only variant which has same body and mirror colour. The headlamp are too peppy and adoreable.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I am in the well fed class, weighing a little over 100kg and tall enough. The head room is very much impressive. I stretch the drivers seat pretty much behing to make myself comfartable. Even with that the passenger at back seat gets extra leg room which is highly remarkable. Seating is pretty much comfortable.

Stearing is one among the best things I like about this car. Its too smooth and i can easily turn with one hand.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Now this is the major segment which scores, and which has raised my concern a lot. I have hardly run 150kms. My mileage shows 10.5 km/Litre as avg. The pulling is terribly low that at times i felt like car was over loaded with 6 people.

Ride Quality & Handling Gear box just spoils my day!! The moments i release my foot from accelarator when im in 2nd gear, the car kind of goes wacky!! Pulling hear and there. I dont know if its just with my car or you all are kind of used to this thing.

Final Words Can someone enlighten me on run in period? Will the mileage get better. I hope it would, coz i dont have any other go. Cant even think of a new car, atleast for a 5 years from now.

Areas of improvement Power, Interior parts, Gear shift shud have been made more comfortable, which atleast would have satisfied me as a new buyer.
