Our take on this /// Verdict

The Nissan Micra XL Automatic is a solid choice for those seeking a reliable and efficient urban hatchback. While it may not stand out in terms of raw performance, its CVT transmission makes it a smooth operator, especially in city driving conditions. The Micras ride quality and handling are commendable, with a soft steering that becomes heavier as speed increases, although there is a slight body roll during sharp turns. However, the three-cylinder petrol engines average performance and the lack of engine braking in the CVT can be drawbacks. Overall, its a good city car with decent features, but it falls short in comparison to some of its rivals in terms of overall package and freshness in design.

Price

The Nissan Micra XL Automatic is priced competitively in the Indian market. As of the latest updates, the Micra XL(O) variant, which is the closest to the XL Automatic, is priced around Rs 6.62 lakh ex-showroom in Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes, registration, and insurance, the price can go up to around Rs 8-9 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing makes the Micra XL Automatic one of the more affordable cars in its segment to offer a CVT transmission, making it an attractive option for those looking for an automatic hatchback without breaking the bank.

Latest Updates

Friday, 08 November 2024 01:09 PM Nissan has recently introduced the CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) on the Micra XL variant, making the automatic version more accessible and affordable. This move is in response to the increasing demand for automatic transmissions in the Indian market. The Micra XL CVT is priced at Rs. 5.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), making it one of the most affordable automatic cars in India. I believe this is a great step by Nissan to cater to the evolving preferences of Indian car buyers.

Friday, 08 November 2024 08:15 AM The new Nissan Micra XL CVT comes equipped with a 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine, producing 75 bhp of power. This engine is mated to Nissan’s Xtronic CVT technology, which enhances the driving experience by providing smooth and seamless gear shifts. The car also boasts a mileage of 19.15 kmpl, as per ARAI tests. I think the combination of this efficient engine and CVT transmission makes the Micra XL a compelling option for those seeking a hassle-free driving experience.

Friday, 08 November 2024 07:24 AM Nissan Motor India has emphasized the benefits of producing the Micra locally, allowing for faster delivery and improved localization levels. This has enabled the company to offer the Micra CVT at a more competitive price, passing the benefits directly to the customers. The companys Managing Director, Arun Malhotra, highlighted that this approach helps in serving the market more efficiently. I believe this strategy will help Nissan gain more traction in the Indian auto market.

Friday, 08 November 2024 07:27 PM The Nissan Micra XL CVT is available in six different colors and features a range of comfort and convenience options, including keyless entry, front and rear power windows, and a comprehensive entertainment system. The car also comes with essential safety features such as dual airbags and ABS. I think these features make the Micra XL CVT a well-rounded package for buyers looking for a reliable and feature-rich automatic hatchback.

Friday, 08 November 2024 11:43 AM Nissan’s decision to introduce the CVT on the Micra XL variant is seen as a strategic move to compete with other automatic offerings in the market, such as the Tata Nano GenX AMT. This expansion of automatic variants is expected to increase the appeal of the Micra among buyers who prefer clutch-free driving. I believe this competition will drive innovation and better options for consumers in the Indian auto market.

Mileage

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 09:45 AM The mileage of the Nissan Micra XL Automatic is respectable, especially considering its CVT transmission. According to ARAI figures, the petrol CVT variant offers a mileage of 19.15 kmpl. In real-world conditions, you can expect around 15-18 kmpl in city traffic and up to 20-22 kmpl on highways. This makes the Micra a reasonable choice for those concerned about running costs, although actual mileage can vary based on driving conditions and habits.
