Nissan Micra Active [2013-2018] User Reviews

Exterior

Mine is a Torquise Blue. The paint quality is very good. Body is tough. Many of my friends have tested my car on very bad roads and they are very satisfied with the ride. Mine is only 4 days old and odometer showing 190km+, no metal sound on bad roads.  

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Speacious interior. The dashboard is simple, but good. Front seats are comfortable. Being a 5'10", I am confortable with the legroom in both rows.   

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Being a new learner, I feel the engine quite and gear-shifting is easy. My friends who won Swift, i10, Santro etc., found the car very interesting and driving it fun. The actual fuel economy I got from Itanagar to Gogamukh (150km approx)  16.4km/ltr.

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride quality & handling is very good and I find it very easy and fun.

 

Final Words

Its a power-packed car with lots of Safety feature under 5 lakhs. I have bought this car because of its fresh look and safety features it offer to me and my family. 

Areas of improvement  

The antenna is very long and there is only one reverse lamp (left side).  

 

SAFETY FEATURES, SPACE, LOOKS, BUILDLONG ANTENNA, SINGLE REVERSE LIGHT

Poor service poroviders MANUMATIC NISSAN KANNUR. Car was good. Got milage only 12 per litre . Local quality service dealers. Competitors are are too good. Only 3 star rating can give

As this car came in market to beat Swift so not so good looking but does the job.

Exterior Body structure is good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Instant cooling AC, Dashboard is full of plastic feel, Missing the handle bar.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I've encountered that my reverse gear stucks from the beginning, Gives the sufficent average of 18-20 on highway. Performance wise is okay runs smooth, no engine noise at 120 - 140 kmph speed (On AC).

Ride Quality & Handling Doesn't handle cornering at high speed, Lacks stability.

Final Words I own Nissan Micra Active XV(Petrol) June 2013 and driven only 13,000 kms. Till date I've not spend a single rupee on car (as it's all depends on how well you maintened car). So 0 cost maintenance. Spare wheel as it is no single puncture yet. Driven mostly on NH and SH. I've only 2 problems 1) Reverse gear stucks sometimes 2)Boot door manually I've to lock. It's not simply you close and the door gets locked. Everytime.

Areas of improvement The executive of IB Nissan Jamnagar named Sanjay troubled us a lot. He always bring new customer to see our car and approach us to see, even some has taken the test drive. Because of my father's humble nature that sales executive took thi advantage(by the time I wans't present in my city).

Budget car, Power full AC, Good for 5 person, Turning Radius 4.65MManually have to lock boot door frequently, plastic cabin, too much cost cutting, no vanity mirror

Exterior Looks are good. Looks fresh and stylish.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Intrior space is decent. Rear under thigh support is poor though. Boot size very good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 2nd gear is especially notchy, Changing gears 2nd at 20, 3rd at 30, 4th at 40 and 5th at 50 is utterly irritating. Despite this, mileage is just so so..around 12-12.5 in city with AC. On Highways, its 16 or so with AC.

Low end torque is poor. So once u slow down the car, regaining speed takes hell lots of time. On slopes and even slightly rough roads, car gives up, so u have to downshift to continue at same speed.

But even with full load, once you are past low speeds, car drives and accelerates well, even past 120. Its stable and comfortable and feels like a sedan. Full marks here. Highway driving the car is fun.

Noise insulation is again not good. You can make out the kind of road you are driving just by listening to the tyre-road sound.

Ride Quality & Handling Its decent. Shockers are also not bad. Of course, its not as good as a sedan but works. Body roll is not much and car controls well.

Final Words It was cheaper than grand i10 and Swift by 30k minimum when I bought it, and then too came with a driver airbag standard. So in that sense I am satisfied. Swift, despite being a superb car has a poor boot space. Also airbag is not given. Grand i10 can be a better alternative I guess since prices have converged now. If boot space does not bother anybody, Swift is clear winner among the three. It drives just beautifully.

Areas of improvement A lot. Frequent gear changes are irritating. Mileage is so so. Low end torque, Notchy gears, Noise insulation, Performance on slope/rough roads. Rear seats. And current price. I would love to have this car with a Swift Engine!

Stylish Looks, Mid to high end torque, boot space, highway driveability, decent shockers, 1 airbagFrequent gear change, Mileage, Low end torque, Notchy gears, Noise insulation, On Slope/rough roads

Exterior

Great looks an head tunner style. Gives a bigger looks for small car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Well made n neatly presented. Interiors feels shophesticated and not a compromise made to quality of products.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Good performance, hope potential to increase milleage.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Been riding for an year close to 10k km and feels Comfort, Smooth as you drive more it adds interest to still continue driving. Descend braking system even in power drive.

Final Words

Car you would love to own. Pretty car with value for money. Great dealership n service by Avenue Nissan, Chennai.

Post sales service and experience is too great. Right choice of Company would be Nissan and Dealer would be Avenue.

Right choice for whoever wish to buy a small car.

Areas of improvement  

 Nothing for now.

Wish to have : Probably top end model can have few gadgets like rear parking senses, better music system panel however current speaker system are good though.

Style. Design. Comfort.Nothing.

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.

Looks and Brand NameLagging, Low mileage

Exterior The exterior is quite good, looks unique, and the design of car was aplauded by many collegues and friends.It has a very big boot space almost 285 lt. which can eat all the luggage.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The instantaneous fuel effiency is great, and gives accurate fuel effiency, thanks to the drive computer in the speedo.

Interiors could be made much better ,the interiors are not that appeling as the exteriors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very smooth engine, there is no hurdle in shifting the gears, the power delivery is great, thanks to the 1.2 l engine. I get a fuel effiency of 17.2KMPL in city and close to 20 on crusing the highway.

Ride Quality & Handling Great braking. the ventilated disk brakes are the reason for this, the car is quite stable even at the speed of 130kmph.

This is best car for the drive in city since the turning radius is 4.5m it actually makes easy to drive through the small streets in My place. I purchased this car three months ago from SURYA NISSAN marathalli, A silver micra active, Here is my first review after 3500 Kilometers!

Final Words Overall its a great car for the price, and a must buy for people who is gonna buy their first car!

Areas of improvement The interiors need tto be improved(Compared to the new i20), The ground clearance need to be improved.

Comfort, Performance, Branding, Build quality, Low maintainenceNot much service centers, less ground clearence

Exterior Looks are really superb i love it. The tyres are wider good grip.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are good comfor seating. Nice power stearing we can handle good in city.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The main drawback id the power and pick up is little less eventhough it is 1200 cc engine. I use my vehicle twice a week. it gives good mileage (aprox 15 after one year or the engine is tuned).

Ride Quality & Handling Driving is very smooth than compared to other vehicles. its moves with lesser noice. power steering is soo good. I feel very Handy with car. A/C is good. music sstem is good enough to listen in the car. It has ABS and Air bags . Whos gonna get these features around 5.8 L.

Final Words Its worth to buy Nissan micra.

Areas of improvement Engine has to be tuned to get good pickup. It needs more power to climb little inclination.

looks, features, domfortpick up is less rest of the things are fine

It's has an awesome design looks and feel. The shape is different and appealing from other competitors in the market. Body is tough and makes this car strong and bold. Interior features are again very beautifully crafted. 1198cc engine is very quite and there is no noisy engine sound and thus very smooth. The sound quality of inbuilt music system is very good and natural, the boot space is really very good. I suggest others to buy this car to ride the best design and technology.
