Nissan Micra Hatchback

90kW Engage 40kWh 5dr Auto [2025]

There’s no denying the success of the Nissan Micra with global sales topping the six million mark over the years. Now we have the all-new six-generation model with lots of modern twists, but also featuring plenty of distinctive styling cues that are a nod to its rich heritage.

If you’re thinking that it looks like the recently-launched Renault 5, then you would be spot on as the two vehicles share the same architecture, a practical cost-sharing solution that is becoming more common amongst manufacturers these days.

But ,with those large round headlight clusters that even give you a welcome wink when you approach the car, there’s no mistaking the Micra’s identity.

Customers have the choice of three trim levels called Engage, Advance and Evolve with prices starting from £22,995 (before the government’s EV grant of £1,500 is deducted). There are also two batteries to select from – the 40kWh unit can deliver 198 miles between charges, while the larger 52kWh can stretch to 260 miles.

We opted for the top-of-the-range Micra Evolve with the larger battery, costing £29,865 for an extensive drive through the stunning countryside surrounding Rotterdam.
