July 6, 2017: Wondering how GST has impacted prices of the Datsun Go +? Find out here!
On the occasion of its third anniversary in the country in April 2017, Datsun introduced special anniversary edition of its GO+ MPV. In this limited edition, the budget people mover gets a host of changes including, first-in-segment Ambient Lighting app for mobile phones, body graphics, Anniversary Edition badge, a sporty black rear spoiler on the exterior. On the other hand, the interior features vivid blue inlays on seats, anniversary floor mats, art leather seats, a keyless entry system, Bluetooth connectivity, rear parking sensor, radio and USB connection.
Powering the Datsun Go+ is the same 1.2-litre petrol engine which churns maximum power of 68PS along with 104Nm of peak torque at 4000 rpm. The MPV delivers a fuel economy of 20.6 kmpl.
I have been driving the Datsun Go plus for One year and five months now and I can comfortably advice anyone to purchase this great car. With a few reasons below:
Size:
Never be fooled by the lengthy looks of the Go plus. Nissan has cerefully designed the vehicle to be a sub four meter vehicle. You will never get any problems parking in tight spots. If you look carefully at the Go plus, its front part (from the drivers seat to the front part is very compact - which saves loads of space for bet read more 5
Hi, I have just booked a Go + ( T trim ). The car is by and large similar to the Go Hatch with an extended rear end to cater to the additional row of seat. Let us go segment wise.
1 Exterior - The car is identical upto the C pillar where it is stretched for the additional Plus you get. The extension is nice and does not appear as just an addition of extra boot to the end. The Front grill is decent and gives nice appeal to the car. Roof is nicely sloping which gives that MPV feel. The s read more 10
Since its revival in March 2014, Datsun has launched 4 models (GO, GO+, mi-Do & on-Do) across 4 markets (India, Indonesia, South Africa & Russia) and started production at 3 plants in 3 countries (India, Indonesia & Russia). Quite symmetrical we must say! However in India, we only have two Datsuns as of now in our market. GO was the first one that made its way here and GO+ was launched few months after that.
The GO+ is a compact alternative to the larger MPVs as well as a larger alternative to the regular hatchbacks. The company quotes GO+ as an 'estate / station wagon' that offers 5+2 seating. But it wouldn't be out of place to call it a 5-seater with a large boot (vis-a-vis an optional 7-seater MPV).
Things We Like in GO Plus
Has a few upmarket features like the Follow me Headlamps, a comprehensive Multi Information Display, Gear Shift Indicator and Speed Sensitive Wipers which are offered right from the base trim.
The third row can be folded down to be used as a large 347 liter boot.
The only car in its price range to offer a third row. It can accommodate a total of 7 passengers. All other options in the price range are 5 seater hatchbacks.
Things We Don't Like in GO Plus
The Datsun brand is new t the Indian market and the image that it has generated around it is negative. Both in terms of safety & quality.
Cost cutting has led to compromise not only on the feature list but also the safety.
Bare basic features on offer. Even on the top end variant you don’t get a proper infotainment system.
Datsun utilizes Nissan’s after sales network which lacks reach.
Stand Out Features
Practicality of a 7 seater in a nifty size under 4 meters.
Very high claimed fuel economy of over 26 kmpl. The highest of a 7 seater MPV. The figure is high when compared to its hatchback competitors as well.
CarDekho Verdict
Though Datsun insists on calling it a seven-seater, the Go+ isn’t exactly a proper one. The third row can only accommodate luggage and can't really be used to seat any adult.
"Though Datsun insists on calling it a seven-seater, the Go+ isn’t exactly a proper one."
But if you look at it as a five-seater, with a decent amount of luggage space, then the Go+ makes more sense.
