Nissan Micra [2013-2018] User Reviews

Very bad experience with Nissan India. After 2 years it will start giving you trouble for expensive parts. They have very cheap quality of parts which starts failing after 2 years so make sure you buy extended warranty. It is push button start (key less) so you can enjoy starting/locking car without key but when it fails for electric part then you will be in pain of expenses. 

I will give recent experience example.

Recently 10 days before when I tried to start my car using push button start and it didn't start. Nissan service center guys diagnosed car and said that Electric Steering Lock Unit failed and we have to replace it. 
That part is also very expensive (cost me 45000 INR) so I asked what could be the reason of failure of such an expensive part. They said that might didn't get sufficient voltage due to battery issue.

 

That answer didn't satisfy me because flat battery can happen anytime and it doesn't mean that it should screw  such an expensive part within 3 years of life of car. And one more thing is that my car went for service in Nissan service center just 15/20 days before. Then during service why they couldn't identify any battery issue if there is any. 

NonePoor service centers, expensive parts quality, electric parts frequent maintenance

I have very bad expericence with Nissan India. There Customer Care service is useless. I didn't get any reply on my online complaint. Car is good but service from both the dealer & company is not upto the mark. Recently there was starting problem in the car I had approached the dealer, aster nissan. My car was under extended warrenty still they did not replace the engine parts giving reason that the fuel quality was not good & hence  its repair/replacement was not covered in extended warrenty. I was told both fuel line & fuel inector nozzle were blocked due to kerosene mixed in Dieasl. First of all who will mix kerosene in diesal!! I was filling diesal from single pump on regular basis. I am not getting any reply from Nissan India I Suggest NEVER TAKE NISSAN VEHICALS IF THEY ARE NOT INTRESTED TO GIVE SERVICE AFTER SALES.

GOOD CAR BAD SERVICE -NISSAN SERVICE

Exterior Nice exterior looks like tall boy. chrome finish is good headlamps are excellent black colour is lookimg awesome.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Features are amazing all are good seats are good space is ok for 3 290 litre boot may seem puny.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent mileage pickup riding is excellent, bought it from orion nissan navi mumbai gearbox is quite good clutch is light weight is ok.

Ride Quality & Handling Ground clearance is not good, in indian roads 160 mm is required, handling is good.

Final Words Car was excellent pickup is amazing all are good nissan is reliableOrdinary three-cylinder petrol engine. Dull to drive.

• ABS brakes removed from the diesel Micra
• Inexistent under-thigh support from the rear seat
• Quirky design may not be to your taste

• Cheeky styling. A touch of retro too
• Quality, well-designed, interiors
• Driver airbag standard across the range (including base variant)
• Diesel engine offers stunning driveability. Fuel efficient as well

Areas of improvement Need to improve ground clearance a lot suitable to indian roads remaining all are good nvh levels are ok they could improve.

ac, pick up, music system, spaceground clearance

Exterior

 Awesome!!in Brick Red Colour..😊

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Awesome!! good for middle class family in this segment😉

It has Dual Air bags, Automatic climate control. super AC chilling after 1 to 2 kms, Keyless entry. remote boot release. built-in music player. comfortable leather seats. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Good, but we need to change gear frequently which is irritating and the fuel economy shows 30kmpl if we drive smoothly without accelarating or pushing hard.(I m bit confused , why it is showing as 30kmpl if we drive smoothly) overall it gives me average of 19kmpl to 22 kmpl.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride and handling are great with this car. it has very short turning radius.

Final Words

 Good for person who is really looking for puredrive and know more about nissan's engine's

You will love only when you drive it and maintain it in gud condition.

Areas of improvement  

Clutch needs to be fixed( its too hard) Ground clearance should be increased.

driver Arm rest should be made available atleast as an option..

XV doesnt have ABS.

 

Great Looks, fuel economy, keyless entry, climate control A/C and shortest turning radiusLack of Arm Rest for driver, Low ground clearance.

Exterior Gud, but paint quality is not upto the mark.. i like the design and mini car with lot of cabin space.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Clever interior, premium look, easy to clean and maintain. im happy with the automatic climate control(cools Awesome). has dual airbags.

Plastic quality is okay!!

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Gud to drive in city and highway, fuel economy is also gud compared to other diesel motors, gear shift is too frequent(i dint like that) you have to shift the gear frequently which makes you unhappy.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling the car is impressive, ride quality is also gud. feels stable upto 120kmph only.

Micra will make you smile on Four lane express ways.. i have driven 600 kms for just 1500Rs Diesel.

Final Words Value for money only when you compromise in few things..fuel economy is okay.

Areas of improvement Hard clutch,,feels like you r driving Truck..clutch needs to be replaced. ground clearance needs to be increased to 170.

Good AC, Driving control, style, cabin spaceHard Clutch, low ground clearance.

My review comes from the experience of 6 years and 1.5lac I'm ownership.

Exterior Micra's design is a very personal choice, you either love it outer loathe it. In my case , it is the former. Exterior parts are quite cheap compared to let's say Hyundai or in some cases even Maruti.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space In the inside is good. Something over doesn't expect looking at the compact exterior design. Mind you it was the first car under 10 lac category giving you push button start and keyless entry, so it's a feature rich car.

However the downside are the seats, the bucketing and bolstering is bad. The seat feels like flat back without much lumbar support which is a problem for long journeys. It's AC is A GRADE. Air circulation from vents is phenomenal.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox It's a tight engine, done 1.5lacs on the car without any issue with engine and electricals. As far as performance is concerned, it's a very good city car without any lag in shifting gears. That way you will feel you are driving a petrol car. It doesn't have good chassis and power to become highway car, you can leave that to Europeans. Fuel economy is good in city, till date I get around 21km/l with AC. On highway if you limit yourself to 80kmph, it will give return you 25km/l. These are realtime figures!

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is ok if not great, that is mainly due to weak chassis. Handling is ok as the steering is responsive. It accumulates as per speed.

Final Words It is a very good and reliable car which makes me wanna buy a Nissan again.

Areas of improvement Chassis, engine power for highways, seat comfort.

Solid engine, great mileage, low cost of maintenanceChassis are not inspiring, seat bolstering
