Pros and Cons

  • Pros
  • Cons

    Mahindra Thar

    • Attention grabbing design. Looks macho and has stronger road presence than ever before.
    • Available with petrol and diesel engines with a choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions for both.
    • Design better suited for off-roading than before. Big improvements in departure angle, breakover angle and ground clearance.
    • More tech: Brake based differential locking system, auto locking rear mechanical differential, shift-on-the-fly 4x4 with low range, 7-inch touchscreen with off-road gauges, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay & navigation
    • Good quality interior with better practicality than before. The Thar is now more family friendly.
    • Improved noise vibration and harshness management. Doesn’t feel crude or outdated to drive anymore.
    • More configurations: Fixed soft top, fixed hardtop or convertible soft top, available as a 6- or 4- seater

    Nissan Micra

    • CVT gearbox: The petrol-powered Micra is available with a CVT automatic transmission only. A CVT not only keeps fuel consumption in check but also ensures smooth power delivery
    • Interior space & quality: The Micra has a spacious cabin. The quality of plastics and materials used is good

Nissan Micra Expert Review

Micra-wave Nissan began its Indian innings with the Micra, even though the Teana and the X-Trail where on sale. This B+ hatchback was the company?s first mass production model for India. The Nissan Micra got a facelift recently and we had the opportunity to drive the Nissan Micra in Madurai.
