Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Mix of Black and a bit of beige is neat and tidy
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is fun to drive though the toque is not spontaneous when you want to accelerate on flover I attribute that to the engine tuning for mileage rather than performance. I have driven around 1450 kms majority on highway(70%) and 30% in city. It is giving a combined mileage of 20.1 km as per onboard computer but as per my calculations it is giving around 19.5 km. Though it is early to figure out as the car is yet to go for first service. Also it was mostly without AC being on. Gearbox intially was notchy and every time you put into reverse there is shreiking noise of gears but now it has gone off.
Ride Quality & Handling Handling is superb and it goes wherever you ask it to go. With 14 inch wheels stability is there though there is some body roll. Ride quality is fine in the city though you will bumps at highways slighty.
Final Words Good family car.
Areas of improvement Better gearbox, Rear wiper/ defogger, fog lamps.

Exterior
Mine is a Torquise Blue. The paint quality is very good. Body is tough. Many of my friends have tested my car on very bad roads and they are very satisfied with the ride. Mine is only 4 days old and odometer showing 190km+, no metal sound on bad roads.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Speacious interior. The dashboard is simple, but good. Front seats are comfortable. Being a 5'10", I am confortable with the legroom in both rows.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Being a new learner, I feel the engine quite and gear-shifting is easy. My friends who won Swift, i10, Santro etc., found the car very interesting and driving it fun. The actual fuel economy I got from Itanagar to Gogamukh (150km approx) 16.4km/ltr.
Ride Quality & Handling
Ride quality & handling is very good and I find it very easy and fun.
Final Words
Its a power-packed car with lots of Safety feature under 5 lakhs. I have bought this car because of its fresh look and safety features it offer to me and my family.
Areas of improvement
The antenna is very long and there is only one reverse lamp (left side).

As this car came in market to beat Swift so not so good looking but does the job.
Exterior Body structure is good.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Instant cooling AC, Dashboard is full of plastic feel, Missing the handle bar.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I've encountered that my reverse gear stucks from the beginning, Gives the sufficent average of 18-20 on highway. Performance wise is okay runs smooth, no engine noise at 120 - 140 kmph speed (On AC).
Ride Quality & Handling Doesn't handle cornering at high speed, Lacks stability.
Final Words I own Nissan Micra Active XV(Petrol) June 2013 and driven only 13,000 kms. Till date I've not spend a single rupee on car (as it's all depends on how well you maintened car). So 0 cost maintenance. Spare wheel as it is no single puncture yet. Driven mostly on NH and SH. I've only 2 problems 1) Reverse gear stucks sometimes 2)Boot door manually I've to lock. It's not simply you close and the door gets locked. Everytime.
Areas of improvement The executive of IB Nissan Jamnagar named Sanjay troubled us a lot. He always bring new customer to see our car and approach us to see, even some has taken the test drive. Because of my father's humble nature that sales executive took thi advantage(by the time I wans't present in my city).
Budget car, Power full AC, Good for 5 person, Turning Radius 4.65MManually have to lock boot door frequently, plastic cabin, too much cost cutting, no vanity mirrorExterior/Styles

Exterior Looks are good. Looks fresh and stylish.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Intrior space is decent. Rear under thigh support is poor though. Boot size very good.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 2nd gear is especially notchy, Changing gears 2nd at 20, 3rd at 30, 4th at 40 and 5th at 50 is utterly irritating. Despite this, mileage is just so so..around 12-12.5 in city with AC. On Highways, its 16 or so with AC.
Low end torque is poor. So once u slow down the car, regaining speed takes hell lots of time. On slopes and even slightly rough roads, car gives up, so u have to downshift to continue at same speed.
But even with full load, once you are past low speeds, car drives and accelerates well, even past 120. Its stable and comfortable and feels like a sedan. Full marks here. Highway driving the car is fun.
Noise insulation is again not good. You can make out the kind of road you are driving just by listening to the tyre-road sound.
Ride Quality & Handling Its decent. Shockers are also not bad. Of course, its not as good as a sedan but works. Body roll is not much and car controls well.
Final Words It was cheaper than grand i10 and Swift by 30k minimum when I bought it, and then too came with a driver airbag standard. So in that sense I am satisfied. Swift, despite being a superb car has a poor boot space. Also airbag is not given. Grand i10 can be a better alternative I guess since prices have converged now. If boot space does not bother anybody, Swift is clear winner among the three. It drives just beautifully.
Areas of improvement A lot. Frequent gear changes are irritating. Mileage is so so. Low end torque, Notchy gears, Noise insulation, Performance on slope/rough roads. Rear seats. And current price. I would love to have this car with a Swift Engine!

Exterior OK.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Car may not be comfortable for long drive.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Some unusual sound comes when changing gear from higher to 1'st or to reverse gear. When informed to service centre, they said it would remain there.
Ride Quality & Handling Good. However, for long run, this is not comfortable. The vehicle is not ideal for village- roads where roads are not good. In last more than 1 year, I did not get any major handling issues (my runnings are also very less, only once went on long drive).
Final Words The vehicle is good. When AC is started, its speed decreases and hence milage also.
Areas of improvement Having about 1200 cc engine, the vehicle could have been good on village- roads as well provided Ground clearance is more. The unusual sound while changing the gear also needs to be addressed. There should not be a sudden reduction in its speed when AC is switched ON while running. Number of Service centres should be increased and spares should be made available easily.
Fuel economy is OKLesser ground clearance, few service centres, sound when changing gear to 1st, lesser spped with ACExterior/Styles

Good performance, hope potential to increase milleage.
Ride Quality & Handling
Been riding for an year close to 10k km and feels Comfort, Smooth as you drive more it adds interest to still continue driving. Descend braking system even in power drive.
Final Words
Car you would love to own. Pretty car with value for money. Great dealership n service by Avenue Nissan, Chennai.
Post sales service and experience is too great. Right choice of Company would be Nissan and Dealer would be Avenue.
Right choice for whoever wish to buy a small car.
Areas of improvement
Nothing for now.
Wish to have : Probably top end model can have few gadgets like rear parking senses, better music system panel however current speaker system are good though.
