More Micra: Nissan widens powertrain range to better meet customer needs

  • Expanded Micra range now features all-new 1.0-litre IG-T 100 PS petrol engine, with manual and Xtronic automatic transmissions
  • 'Warm hatch' IG-T 117 PS petrol unit creates new range-topping Micra with lowered ride height, revised suspension and sharper steering
  • New Micra N-Sport special version delivers exclusive design upgrade
  • All available to order through Nissan retailers across Europe

LISBON, Portugal – The Nissan Micra is now more appealing than ever thanks to an extensively revised powertrain line-up.

Three new customer choices have been added to the Micra range – an all-new upgraded and more efficient turbocharged petrol engine with 'world-first' technology; the debut of an Xtronic automatic linked to the same engine; plus the arrival of a more powerful 'warm hatch' flagship with lowered ride height, revised suspension and sharper steering.

In addition, Nissan has also launched an all-new special version, the Micra N-Sport, which delivers and exclusive design upgrade both inside and outside the car.

As well as delivering 'More Micra' than ever before, each new version offers improved powertrain refinement and response on all road surfaces and in all driving conditions.

Helen Perry, general manager, small cars, Nissan Europe, said: "With a greater focus on efficiency and performance, these new models further broaden the appeal of the Nissan Micra. We are now in a position to better meet the needs of Europe's compact hatchback customers."

The three new powertrains have been developed through the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance. By using the strength and resources of the Alliance, Nissan can deliver synergies which push the boundaries of what is possible from a three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine. Each offers the highest levels of performance and refinement to customers, meets the strictest standards of reliability and durability as well as reduced CO2 emissions.

The new Micra powertrains are now on sale at Nissan retailers across Europe, joining the existing 1.0-litre 71 PS naturally aspirated petrol engine and the 1.5-litre 90 PS diesel engine.
