In a tight spot: the NEW NISSAN MICRA Parking System does the hard work for

|
It's a 29-year-old success story - and four generations later, the Micra is
|
|
more popular than ever. The newest model expands on its predecessor's
|
|
attributes - town-friendly dimensions, equipment, comfort and technology
|
|
levels beyond its class - by combining them with superb eco-credentials and
|
|
even cheaper running costs.
|
|
|
|
The NEW NISSAN MICRA is a five- door hatchback, with a three-cylinder
|
|
1.2-litre engine, in three grades: Visia, Acenta and Tekna. Two transmissions
|
|
are offered: a five-speed manual and a continuously variable unit. Its compact
|
|
size at 12ft 1in (3.7m) long is perfect for city driving.
|
|
|
|
This is aided by a class-leading turning circle and a Parking System. Teamed
|
|
with rear park sensors, it measures any space, advises whether the vehicle
|
|
would fit and then guides the car in. Ideal for a town car, and unique in this
|
|
sector.
|
|
|
|
A clever interior means the NEW NISSAN MICRA has room for five people; the
|
|
roof is high, while the rear is notable for its leg room - ideal if you
|
|
regularly carry more than one adult.
|
|
|
|
The contemporary cabin and generously equipped dashboard highlights just how
|
|
far the model has come. Worthy of comment are the logical controls, simple-to-
|
|
read dials and adjustable steering wheel. The advanced yet easy-to-operate
|
|
Nissan Connect system uses "friendly" technology to combine touchscreen
|
|
satellite navigation, Bluetooth and MP3 compatibility.
|
|
|
|
Automatic, speed-sensitive door locking provides security, as does an engine
|
|
immobiliser when you park. Its improved dynamics incorporate comfortable
|
|
suspension tuning and speed-sensitive power-steering, while performance is
|
|
keen, with 0-62mph in 13.7 seconds and a 105mph top speed.
|
|
|
|
The NEW NISSAN MICRA's combination of big-car standards, small-car running
|
|
costs and user- friendly charm goes a long way to make city driving a
|
|
pleasure.
