Electric vehicles (EVs) continue to redefine the automotive landscape, blending sustainability with innovation. The latest entrant making waves is the all-new Nissan Micra EV. A model that combines the legacy of a beloved hatchback with the advancements of electric mobility. Set to hit European roads in late 2025, the sixth-generation Micra EV promises to be a game-changer in the compact EV segment.
A Legacy Reimagined
Since its debut in 1982, the Nissan Micra has been a staple in the compact car market, known for its reliability and efficiency. The transition to an all-electric model marks a significant evolution, aligning with global trends towards zero-emission transportation. The Micra EV is built on the AmpR Small platform, shared with the Renault 5 E-Tech, emphasising Nissan’s commitment to collaborative innovation.
Design and Aesthetics
The Micra EV boasts a bold and contemporary design. Featuring distinctive “bug-eye” headlights with circular LED daytime running lights. These lights perform a unique “welcome wink” animation upon unlocking, adding a touch of personality. The vehicle’s compact dimensions are complemented by a sculpted hood, complex front bumper, and a sleek silhouette, offering both aesthetic appeal and aerodynamic efficiency. A range of 14 colour options, including two-tone combinations, allows for personalised expression.
Performance and Range
Nissan offers the Micra EV with two battery configurations:
- 40kWh Battery: Delivers approximately 191 miles (308 km) of range, powered by a 90kW (122hp) motor producing 225Nm of torque.
- 52kWh Battery: Extends the range to around 253 miles (408 km), equipped with a 110kW (150hp) motor generating 245Nm of torque.
Both variants support DC fast charging. With the larger battery capable of charging from 15% to 80% in just 30 minutes using a 100kW charger. This efficiency ensures minimal downtime, making the Micra EV suitable for both city commutes and longer journeys.
Interior and Technology
Inside, the Micra EV offers a driver-centric cabin with dual 10.1-inch screens for infotainment and instrumentation. The center console is angled towards the driver, enhancing accessibility and control. Additional features include:
- Wireless charging pad
- 48-color ambient lighting
- Unique upholstery with design elements inspired by Mount Fuji
- 326 litres of boot space, expandable to 1,106 litres with rear seats folded
These elements combine to create a comfortable and technologically advanced environment, catering to modern drivers’ needs.
