Datsun makes a grand entry after its lengthy holidays ! Just as we write this post, Mr. Carlos Ghosn, Chairman of Renault-Nissan global alliance along with Mr. Vincent Cobee, Brand Head of Datsun announces the first car - "GO".
The car will be the completely engineered product in India and is all set to launch in January 2014. The car will be positioned below the recently launched Micra Active and is set to compete with Maruti yet to be launched YL7 (replacement of A Star and Estilo), Chevrolet Beat and similar. Just looking at the car, we cannot say that there is some sort of cost cutting on the car.
“Datsun will bring competitive products and services, modern and aspirational, while at the same time reassuring, providing superior value and specifically developed for the emerging and ambitious new Middle Class in high-growth markets. The Datsun cars will be locally developed with the support of Nissan Motor Company engineers and stylists and will be locally produced”, said Vincent Cobee, Head of Datsun.
The K2 will also be joined by another smaller hatchback I2 sometime during festive season in 2014. The car is expected to be launched at price range of INR 2.99-3.25 Lac
The interiors of the car share some of the features from Nissan's Micra like the door opening and closing handles and finish reminds of the Nissan's vehicle. However, as we already told you the front seat of Datsun would resemble of Ambassador's front two seats joined and the gear box on the dashboard.
