Nissan announces Micra CVT auto at Rs 5.99 lac
Claims to be the most affordable premium hatch with a CVT gearbox
Orange is the shade du jour these days, and Nissan isn’t being left behind. The refreshed Micra hatch is now available in “Sunshine Orange” across the range, including on Active variants. The interior trim is all-black, and prices remain the same, starting at Rs 4.55 lac ex-showroom. But if you thought we’d waste space shilling a new colour, we thought you knew better. The bigger news is that the Micra is now available with a CVT automatic gearbox, and it comes in at Rs 5.99 lac ex-showroom. Nissan claims this is the cheapest hatch with this sort of gearbox in India. We can’t think of too many CVT hatches in the country, so that must be true.
The interior will be all-black, including the upholstery with blue contrast stitching. The release also mentions “piano black finish” on the centre console, which we’re not fans of. The Active variants get a black instrument panel cluster, black seats and silver door trim.
Nissan claims their X-tronic CVT system is more efficient than a manual, and is available now in the Micra CVT in 252 Nissan showrooms across the country.
