It comes with two petrol engine options a 0.8-litre engine producing 54PS and 72Nm of torque, and a 1.0-litre engine producing 69PS and 91Nm of torque.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Datsun Redi-GO T is a practical and stylish option in the entry-level hatchback segment, but it comes with some significant drawbacks. While it offers user-friendly dynamics and the best-in-segment ground clearance, making it easy to maneuver in tight city spaces, its safety record is a major concern. The car scored only one star in the Global NCAP crash tests, with particular issues noted in adult chest protection and the lack of rear seatbelts with pretensioners and ISOFIX child seat anchors. Despite these safety concerns, the Redi-GO T is affordable and comes with features like ABS, a driver airbag, and rear parking sensors. However, the build quality and overall safety make it a less desirable choice for those prioritizing safety.

Price

The Datsun Redi-GO T is priced competitively in the Indian market, with the ex-showroom price starting at around Rs. 4.26 lakh. On-road prices, however, can vary depending on the location and additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other taxes, typically ranging from Rs. 4.8 lakh to Rs. 5.2 lakh. This pricing makes it an attractive option for budget-conscious buyers, but its essential to weigh the cost against the compromises on safety and build quality. The price difference between the manual and AMT variants is also noteworthy, with the AMT version costing around Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 30,000 more.

Latest Updates

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 03:07 AM Datsun has discontinued the production of the Datsun Redi-GO, including the T variant, marking the end of an era for this affordable hatchback in India. The last recorded prices ranged from Rs. 3.83 lakh to Rs. 4.96 lakh, depending on the variant. I think this move might open up space for new, more advanced models in the entry-level segment.

Thursday, 24 June 2021 02:38 PM The Datsun Redi-GO T(O) 1.0 AMT was the top model in the lineup, featuring a 1.0-liter engine producing 67hp and 91Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed automated manual transmission. It also came with dual airbags, a reverse parking camera, and ABS with EBD. This variant was priced at around Rs. 4.96 lakh. I believe the AMT option made it a convenient choice for city driving.

Wednesday, 20 March 2019 06:21 PM In 2019, Datsun updated the Redi-GO with additional safety and convenience features, including ABS across all variants and a driver-side airbag on the top trim. The T variant also received enhancements like LED daytime running lamps and an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. This update made the Redi-GO more competitive in its segment.

Tuesday, 23 January 2018 05:17 AM Datsun launched the Redi-GO AMT in January 2018, which was priced at Rs. 3.80 lakh for the introductory period. This addition made the Redi-GO more appealing to buyers looking for an automatic transmission in the entry-level segment. The AMT variant was about Rs. 22,000 more expensive than the standard manual version. I think this was a smart move to cater to the growing demand for automatics.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 07:55 AM The Redi-GO T variant was known for its tall boy design, providing ample ground clearance of 187mm and riding on 14-inch wheels. The exterior featured a large grille with chrome borders, neatly designed headlamps, and large L-shaped DRLs. This design made the Redi-GO stand out in its segment.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 05:42 PM Datsun introduced the 1.0-liter variant of the Redi-GO in July 2017, which added more power and driveability compared to the 0.8-liter engine. The pre-launch bookings started at Rs. 10,000, indicating strong interest in the more powerful version. I believe this move helped in boosting sales and customer satisfaction.

Wednesday, 26 October 2016 06:30 AM The Redi-GO T(O) variant came with a range of features including keyless entry, central locking, Bluetooth connectivity, and a digital tachometer. The interior featured a black and dual-tone theme with fabric upholstery, making it a comfortable and feature-rich option in its class.

Wednesday, 26 October 2016 04:11 AM Datsun ramped up the production of the Redi-GO Sport, a limited edition model, to meet the growing demand in October 2016. This move indicated the popularity of the Redi-GO among Indian buyers. I think the limited edition models helped in keeping the interest alive in the vehicle.

Wednesday, 15 June 2016 05:33 AM The Redi-GO T variant was praised for its practicality and style, offering the best-in-segment ground clearance and user-friendly dynamics. Although it could have benefited from better engines, it remained an enticing buy in the entry-level space.

Friday, 15 April 2016 11:39 AM The Datsun Redi-GO T was part of a lineup that competed directly with the Maruti Alto and Renault Kwid. Its competitive pricing, starting from around Rs. 3.83 lakh, made it a viable option for budget-conscious buyers. I believe its affordability was a key selling point.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 10:33 AM The Datsun Redi-GO T offers decent mileage, which is a crucial factor for many Indian buyers. The manual petrol variant of the Redi-GO T provides an ARAI-certified mileage of 21.7 kmpl, while the AMT variant slightly better at 22 kmpl. In real-world conditions, users have reported mileage close to these figures, making it a reasonable choice for daily commuting. However, the actual mileage can vary based on driving conditions and maintenance of the vehicle.
