Datsun Redi-GO A Updates

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 06:01 PM The Datsun Redi-GO A, with its 0.8-litre petrol engine, is priced aggressively in the Indian market, ranging from Rs. 3.97 lakh to Rs. 4.95 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). This pricing makes it a competitive option in the entry-level hatchback segment. I think the pricing is a key factor in its appeal to budget-conscious buyers.

Wednesday, 20 March 2019 10:57 PM Datsun has updated the Redi-GO A with additional safety features, including ABS across all variants and a driver-side airbag on the top trim. This move is expected to enhance the vehicles safety credentials, although the Global NCAP crash test results still show room for improvement. I believe these updates are a step in the right direction.

Tuesday, 23 January 2018 12:44 PM The Redi-GO A comes equipped with a range of convenience features such as an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, LED daytime running lamps, and keyless entry. These features make the vehicle more appealing to modern buyers who value connectivity and convenience. I think these features are a great addition for an entry-level car.

Tuesday, 23 January 2018 09:14 AM Datsun introduced the Redi-GO AMT in 2018, which is about Rs. 22,000 more expensive than the standard manual version. The AMT option is available only with the 1.0-litre engine and is aimed at providing ease of driving in heavy traffic conditions. I believe this is a good move to cater to urban drivers.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 05:43 AM The Redi-GO A is available with two petrol engine options: an 800cc unit producing 54hp and 72Nm of torque, and a 1.0-litre unit producing 67hp and 91Nm of torque. Both engines are mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, with the 1.0-litre engine also offering an AMT option. I think the engine options provide good flexibility for buyers.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 07:52 AM In terms of safety, the Redi-GO A has scored one star in the Global NCAP crash tests for adult protection and two stars for child occupant protection. While this is an improvement over its sibling, the GO, there is still room for enhancement, particularly in terms of rear seatbelts and ISOFIX child seat anchors. I believe safety should be a top priority for any vehicle.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 09:44 AM The Redi-GO A offers a mileage of 20.71 kmpl for the 800cc engine and up to 22 kmpl for the 1.0-litre engine with AMT, making it a fuel-efficient option in its segment. This is particularly beneficial for daily commuters. I think the fuel efficiency is one of its strong points.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 06:09 AM Datsun started pre-launch bookings for the 1.0-litre Redi-GO A in July 2017, indicating a strategic move to generate interest and sales. The pre-launch bookings were priced at Rs. 10,000. I believe this strategy helped in building anticipation for the vehicle.

Wednesday, 26 October 2016 01:02 PM The Redi-GO A has a tall boy design, which provides decent ground clearance of 187mm and makes it stand out in its segment. The exterior features include a large grille with chrome borders and L-shaped DRLs, giving it a distinctive look. I think the design is quite appealing for its class.

Wednesday, 26 October 2016 05:31 PM Datsun has ramped up production of the Redi-GO to meet growing demand, particularly after the success of the limited edition Redi-GO Sport. This indicates strong market acceptance of the vehicle. I believe this is a positive sign for Datsuns presence in India.
