Nissan Micra EV

The Nissan Micra EV is an upcoming electric hatchback from the Japanese car maker. It will come with a futuristic and minimal look, and is expected to have a feature-rich cabin with comfortable seats. The hatchback can easily seat 5 people, including the driver.

Price 

The Nissan Micra EV price in the UAE has not yet been announced by the brand. Considering that the upcoming model will be an EV, it will cost significantly more than the previous-gen Micra. However, we expect it to rival other electric hatchbacks like the Chevrolet Bolt EUV and should be priced similarly.

Variants

The Micra EV could be available in multiple variants in the UAE, depending on the battery pack, range, and other features. 

Engine and Performance 

The Micra EV will be powered by an all-electric powertrain. Reports suggest that the electric hatchback will be available in two battery pack options: 40 kWh and 52 kWh. The model equipped with the 52 kWh battery pack should offer a range of about 400 kilometers per charge. It should also support fast charging.

Safety

The Micra EV is likely to be equipped with top-notch safety features like a reverse parking camera, lane assist, anti-lock braking system, cruise control, automatic emergency braking, traction control, hill descent control, among others. The electric hatchback will also have water and dust-proof battery packs to help it survive in the harsh weather and driving conditions of the UAE and the Middle East region.

Features and Specifications

We expect the Micra EV to come with a feature-loaded and comfortable cabin. With a digital instrument console, the electric hatchback should also feature a big multimedia touchscreen. It could also feature a head-up display (HUD) for the driver. 

The Nissan Micra EV interior could get microfibre or synthetic leather seats. The cabin has enough space to easily accommodate 5 passengers, including the driver. The boot space at the back is likely to have enough storage to carry luggage of a small family (at least 250 liters)

The Nissan Micra EV exterior design looks futuristic and stylish, but still seems familiar as the electric hatchback derives its design inspiration from its discontinued petrol-powered sibling. It has a sculpted body with minimalistic and modern design elements. The Micra EV will get slim LED headlights with LED DRLs (daytime running lights) and matching tail-lights. It also has chunky alloy wheels and big rear-view mirrors.

Why Choose the Nissan Micra EV?

If you are looking for an electric hatchback for your family or as your daily driver, then the Nissan Micra EV can be a great option. The hatchback has good looks and is likely to have a feature-rich and comfortable cabin. 

Being a compact hatchback, the Micra EV should be easy to drive in traffic, just like its petrol-powered version. However, if you want to add the upcoming Micra EV to your garage, then you might have to wait for a few months for the hatchback to be launched in the UAE.
