First Drive Report: Datsun Redi Go 1.0 T (O) by Shibu Chakraborty.

Datsun’s third offering in India was pitched as an urban crossover called redi Go. We also voted it as our choice for the second car that we will be using in addition to the tried and tested master – Alto 800.

After taking delivery of our Redi Go in ruby red colour (christened as ‘Red Ridinghood’ by our daughter Yukti), me and my wife started our journey back home from the Ritu Nissan Datsun showroom located near Hiranandani Estate, Thane. We had decided to take the route via Mulund Airoli link road that would then pass via the Thane Belapur road, then Mahape Shil Road and finally Kalyan Shil Road to reach Palava city where we reside. Though this route has two tolls, it was our preferred route as the drive is through highway and several flyovers with road conditions being pretty good.

As we sojourned our drive, the first task was to fill some petrol since we were to drive for about 35 km through the above route. Datsun Redi Go houses a 28L petrol tank on the right hand side. The first few minutes while driving the car made me a bit nervous since I have been used to only driving our Alto800 since the last four years. After the Redi Go test drive about three weeks ago, this was my first major drive across the city roads. This variant houses the 1.0L iSAT engine and though it is much more refined as reviewed by experts when compared to the 800cc model, there has been a lot of discussion on the engine’s capabilities at relatively lower rpm levels.

My focus too remained on similar lines as I was constantly trying to hear the engine and read its response when starting from idle, creeping the Redi Go at bumper to bumper traffic and while on the climb. The refinement level is relatively good though but it does shudder a bit and even the co-passenger on the front seat can see the dashboard vibrating at the start unless we apply a little throttle and hear the peculiar sneezing noise of the engine at the start. Once it starts cruising, the ride quality and feedback is really a pleasure from an entry level A segment car. I too felt that it is best to drive the car at a little less than 2000 rpm. Around the corners and turns, a bit of body roll due to its tall boy structure is also experienced but still not enough to scare and maintain a decent speed.

Reversing the car is also an unique experience since it needs a lever below the gear knob to be pulled up whilst slotting it at extreme left top past the first gear. When the gear knob is returned to neutral, the lever automatically comes down and while it is in this position, we move to the standard first gear.

Few issues related to ergonomics are worth mentioning. Due to the high stance driving, the driver has to reach down while using the parking brake. Same happens when trying to close or open the glass through the power window buttons which are located too far ahead. The left and right turn indicator arrows are not very clearly visible when driving under bright sun light.

Leaving these issues aside, the bright spots include better cabin space, head space and decent features like central locking, child safety lock door and relatively sound suspension. The clutch is really very light and engages early, while the acceleration is extremely responsive to light throttle push. A tight turning radius also is a boon during U turns.

The overall experience of driving the RediGo for the first time at length was at the end enjoyable. As I spend more time with it, the handling and manoeuvrability is bound to improve.

Nissan is oldest & fames in the world car maked very experienced company. Design & model is good all variants good performance.

The datsun redigo made every common man's to drive a car in thier life. Redi-Go is wonderful as many children near my Locality touch the car in a very curious manner. I feel blessed when i see the children touching the car. Good mileage and in hindi i will call it as "Saste mein Maska" .. Maska-: becuase it runs smoothly like amul maska(butter) Also launch more varieties of Matte colour..

I wanted to buy second car for my wife and an automatic. We considered alto, wagon r, celerio, i10, tiago and ignis. Ignis and tiago were best but budget was an issue so took test drive in redigo. I am 6.2 and found space to be great compared to alto at par with celerio. Size might not say but very spacious. Drive is smooth in terms of amt gear change. Jerk level similar to ignis so big plus. It also had remote locking, Bluetooth phone and basic music system. Was also available with zero down payment. Noise levels are high and cost cutting very evident inside. Build is very light. We were also extremely concerned about reliability but anyhow bought it. Now after 21000 km in 8 months and one road trip to mussori all apprehension gone. Service people are prompt and it came with 5 year unlimited km warranty and three year roadside assistance all in 4 lakh on road. We have a ciaz as another car but this is favorite in family for city use. Very comfortable, spacious and handy. Service cost of 2700 per service and mileage is constant at 16 to 16.6 in city and 18 plus on highway. One issue is small petrol tank results in multiple pump visit. All in all I love the car for no nonsense Performance and convenience. There are no rattling sound even after such light build quality. Brakes and handling are matured and never feels out of power till 100 kmph on full load. Post 100 it feels uncomfortable and doesn't inspire confidence. Gear changes will need light foot and are delight without any noticeable head nod. If considering an automatic under 5 lakh this is a strong contender.

Excellent car for 5 people and very stylish from outside and inside also interior is awesome and also smooth to driver having greater leg space and I always go for a daily ride with excellent mileage

His awesome car ..... I think he's good for me personally used as a good car..he is most reliable car ..any one to use this car so lucky chance low budget car or low maintenance car they are totally fit in the budget
