Our take on this /// Verdict

The Datsun Redi-GO is a budget-friendly hatchback that offers several compelling features, but it also comes with some significant drawbacks. On the positive side, it boasts a spacious cabin, class-leading ground clearance of 185mm, and a generous 222-liter boot space, making it a great option for city driving and short road trips. The car is available with two engine options - a 0.8-litre and a 1.0-litre unit - both of which provide decent performance, especially the 1.0-litre variant which feels more refined and responsive. However, the AMT transmission can be jerky, especially in heavy traffic, and the build quality and cabin insulation are below par. Safety features are limited, with only the top variant offering a driver airbag and ABS with EBD. Overall, while the Redi-GO is a good choice for those on a tight budget looking for a compact and easy-to-park vehicle, it may not be the best option for those prioritizing safety, comfort, and long-term reliability.

Price

The Datsun Redi-GO is priced competitively in the Indian market, with ex-showroom prices ranging from approximately 3.97 lakh to 4.95 lakh in Delhi. When considering on-road prices, you can expect to add around 50,000 to 70,000 for registration, insurance, and other costs, bringing the total to around 4.47 lakh to 5.65 lakh. This pricing makes the Redi-GO an attractive option for first-time car buyers or those looking for an affordable city car. However, its important to note that the prices can vary slightly depending on the city and state due to different tax rates. The discounts and offers available from dealers can also impact the final price, making it a good idea to check with local dealerships for the best deals.

Latest Updates

Thursday, 14 November 2024 10:36 AM Datsun has announced the cessation of redi-GO production at its Chennai plant, marking the end of the models production. This decision comes as the company aligns its product lineup with market demands. The Datsun redi-GO D, once a popular entry-level hatchback, will no longer be available in the market. I think this is a significant move, indicating a shift in consumer preferences towards more feature-rich and safer vehicles.

Thursday, 24 June 2021 05:48 AM The Datsun redi-GO D was part of the lineup that received a facelift, which included new colour options such as Vivid Blue, Ruby Red, and Sandstone Brown. The update also brought in features like LED daytime running lamps and an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. These additions made the redi-GO more competitive in the entry-level segment.

Thursday, 24 June 2021 04:07 PM The Datsun redi-GO D was criticized for its safety performance, scoring only one star in the Global NCAP crash tests. However, it did better in child occupant protection with a two-star rating. The lack of rear seatbelts with pretensioners and ISOFIX child seat anchors was a significant drawback. This highlighted the need for improved safety features in entry-level vehicles.

Monday, 07 June 2021 03:17 PM Nissan Motor India announced subscription plans for Nissan and Datsun cars, including the redi-GO D, in partnership with Orix. This move aimed to provide customers with more flexible ownership options, which could appeal to those who prefer not to commit to full vehicle ownership.

Wednesday, 20 March 2019 09:43 AM The Datsun redi-GO D was recently updated with additional safety features, including ABS with EBD, a driver-side airbag, and rear parking sensors across all variants. This move was aimed at enhancing the safety profile of the vehicle, which had previously received a one-star rating in Global NCAP crash tests. This update was a step in the right direction, but more could have been done to improve safety standards.

Wednesday, 20 March 2019 05:37 AM Datsun India updated the redi-GO D with additional features such as a digital tachometer, new dual-tone 14-inch wheel covers, and keyless entry. These updates were aimed at enhancing the vehicles appeal and providing better value to customers. I believe these small updates helped in keeping the model relevant in a competitive market.

Saturday, 20 January 2018 02:14 PM Datsun introduced the AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) variant of the redi-GO D, which was a welcome addition for those who prefer the convenience of an automatic transmission in heavy city traffic. The AMT option was available only with the 1.0-litre engine and was priced at a premium of around Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 30,000 over the manual transmission models.

Tuesday, 11 July 2017 09:47 AM Datsun India introduced the redi-GO 1.0-litre variant, which included the base D model, offering more power and driveability compared to the 0.8-litre engine. The 1.0-litre engine produced 67hp and 91Nm of torque, making it a more appealing option for buyers looking for better performance. I believe this upgrade helped in attracting more customers to the redi-GO lineup.

Wednesday, 26 October 2016 06:06 AM Datsun India ramped up the production of the redi-GO Sport, a limited edition model, to meet growing demand. The redi-GO Sport was well-received by customers, leading to the initial 1000 units being sold out within a month. This was a positive sign for the models popularity.

Thursday, 14 April 2016 09:36 AM The Datsun redi-GO D was launched with a starting price of Rs. 3.84 lakh (ex-showroom), positioning it as one of the most affordable cars in India. The vehicle boasted a tall boy design, high ground clearance of 187mm, and a spacious interior, making it an attractive option for first-time car buyers. I think the pricing strategy was key to its initial success.

Thursday, 14 April 2016 01:03 PM The Datsun redi-GO D came with a 0.8-litre three-cylinder engine producing 54hp and 72Nm of torque, paired with a five-speed manual transmission. This powertrain was tuned for fuel efficiency, offering a mileage of 20.71 kmpl. The engines performance was adequate for city driving, but it lacked the punch for highway cruising.

Mileage

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 11:16 AM The Datsun Redi-GO offers respectable mileage figures, which is a crucial factor for many Indian buyers. The manual petrol variant provides a mileage of 21.7 kmpl, while the automatic petrol variant offers 22 kmpl. These figures are based on ARAI certifications and can vary slightly in real-world conditions depending on driving habits and road conditions. However, overall, the Redi-GOs fuel efficiency is on par with its competitors in the segment, making it a viable choice for those concerned about running costs.
