On the occasion of the 4 millionth car produced in Sunderland, Nissan unveils the new Micra line-up. It includes the 160SR and the Coupe-Cabriolet C+C. The latter has been co-developed with german famous coachbuilder Karmann. Having invested € 146 million in it, Nissan intends to sell 20,000 Micra C+C a year. This new cabriolet rivals the 206 CC and has a major advantage on it: its roof is made of glass. 9cm longer and 11cm wider than a normal Micra, the C+C needs space to store its roof (foldable in 22 seconds). When the roof is folded, the boot capacity is reduced from 426 to 221 litres, which remains an excellent value for such a small cabriolet. On the other hand, the rear seats are really minute.
Available with either a 1.4 88bhp or a 1.6 110bhp unit, the Micra C+C should cost less than the ageing Peugeot 206 CC.
