2017 Nissan Micra (teaser)
Nissan has released the first teaser of the 2017 Nissan
Micra and announced that the car will have its world premiere
at the 2016 Paris Motor Show.
Seeing the front-end, it’s evident the fifth
generation Nissan Micra draws its design from the Nissan Sway Concept. The
prominent V-motion grille and sleek new headlamps clearly define the Micra has
moved from a chic character to a sporty and aggressive character.
The fifth-gen Nissan Micra will be underpinned by
the CMF-B (Common Module Family for B cars) platform. The all-new model will
grow to be repositioned for a wider coverage of the market. To get a rough idea
of the dimensions, the Sway Concept measures 4,010 mm in length, 1,780 mm in
width and 1,385 mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2,570 mm.
The 2017 Nissan Micra, as per media reports, will
launch with petrol and diesel engines with displacements ranging from 0.9- to
1.6-litre. The redesigned model will enter production at Renault’s plant in
Flins, near Paris, by the end of 2016 and likely go on sale in early 2017.
The AMEI (Asia, Middle East and India) region’ new
generation Nissan Micra will be different from the one to be unveiled in Paris
this month, and it will be manufactured at the French-Japanese alliance’s
facility in Oragadam, near Chennai.
