Nissan Datsun

The first model to be unveiled in India will be a five-door hatchback, which will be based on Nissan Micra Platform. There are also speculations that the hatchback will be priced below Rs 2 lakh. In February 2013, the company teased the first official image of Datsun model, which revealed the front fascia of the car. According to the revealed picture, the front fascia of the car will have angular headlights, a contoured hood and a small grille. However, the company didn't reveal the exact specifications of the car, it said that the Datsun model will have "Strong independent brand identity".

As mentioned above, the Datsun hatchback will share the platform features from its sibling Nissan Micra, although it will be a completely different car. The car might also use the similar 1.2-litre, three-cylinder engine fitted in the Micra. The car will be very spacious, however it will be a slightly smaller than that of the Micra.
