While Datsun is yet to reveal the prices of the GO and GO+ BS6, it has listed them on its official website. They are expected to be launched after the lockdown is lifted. Both models continue to be offered in a total of five variants: D, A, A(O), T, and T(O).

Both models are powered by the same 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine as before. However, they have received a few updates to meet the country’s stringent BS6 emission norms. The engine is mated to either a 5-speed manual gearbox or a first-in-segment continuously variable transmission (CVT). While the torque figure remains the same (104Nm) when paired to either of the transmission options, the power output stands at 68PS and 77PS when mated to the 5-speed MT and CVT respectively. The claimed mileage figure of the petrol-manual has dropped from 19.83kmpl to 19.02kmpl, while that of the CVT version stands at 19.59kmpl and 18.57kmpl for the GO and GO+ respectively.
