Auto India, Car India

Welcome back!

First things first!

Nissan Micra’s petrol and diesel variants came, saw and conquered! The impact of the car even before its launch was so intense on the Indian automobile market that a potential auto buff had booked it well in advance.

Yes, the advance booking of Micra’s petrol edition was a good 4000 while the diesel version touched a phenomenal 3000 bookings, making the car the most sought after in its category.

The main mainstays of Micra for making it such a swashbuckling success were excellent design, attractive interior features, tempting price and not to forget the endorsements being done by none other than the young heart throb Ranbir Kapoor.

Continuing its tryst with the same, Nissan seems to have studied the potential of the Indian automobile market and is leaving no stone unturned to turn things in its favor. Yes, the auto major is ready to bring a sedan specially made for India.

The company was still in the think-tank mode, as they were not willing to provide insights on what would be the name of the sedan. However, the only information that could be chalked off was the launch of the model in petrol and diesel versions, just like the Micra.

We are still working on what name to give but we will be launching both the petrol as well as the diesel variant soon.

We have the technology in place now but it is too soon to reveal the configurations of the engines. We feel that the sedan too will be brought to life by the Logan engine but of course it will be more refined and with a larger output.

An official from the company was quipped as saying.

To provide you a peep, the Nissan Sedan would compete with the Volkswagen Vento and Honda City and is destined to make way on Indian roads late next year. The Sedan is set to be manufactured at the Renault- Nissan plant in Chennai.

With expansion plans looming large on the horizon for the company to surge and slope up its dealership network all across, time till the launch of the Sedan would just be apt for the company to resurrect its hiccups and come out clean to win the targeted section.
