2015 Nissan Micra: It's good. It's really good. (Autofocus.ca)
Writer Jil McIntosh wonders aloud whether she's actually gushing over the new Micra.
Answer: yes, she's actually gushing. I don't think I've ever read such a glowing review of an entry level car before.
Likes...
- peppy performance, sharp steering
- unexpectedly good handling and smooth ride
- 4 speed automatic well suited to the car
- value for money
- supportive seats
- solid highway feel at 120 km/h, despite city car mission
Dislikes...
(Not much, really....)
- lower fuel economy than the competition
- sparse interior
- seat height issue for taller than average driver
- have to remove the rear headrests to fold the seats down
Overall...
I’ll call it now: Nissan is going to sell a major whack of these things. [...] I just wasn’t expecting something this small, and this inexpensive, to be this good. Automakers are always bringing in new models or improving their existing ones, but every now and again, one comes in that truly shakes up the segment.
