Nissan to hike Sunny and Micra prices by 2% from Jan

Finally, Nissan India has announced its share of price hike on its two top-selling cars Nissan Sunny and Nissan Mirca hatchback. However, it’s only the petrol variant of the Nissan’s sedan and the Micra hatchback that will see a hike of 2% from January. While the diesel variant of the flagship sedan doesn’t need any price revision as of now. The overwhelming sales of the Sunny sedan definitely calls for an upward price revision which was offered at the most economic price to begin with.

It’s quite strange to enforce a price hike on Nissan Micra hatchback on the other hand, which has never been popular as volume seller till date.  A 2% rise in the Nissan Micra price is imminent on both petrol and diesel variants. So, what exactly is the reason behind the increase in the prices of the Nissan cars. It is once again the woes of higher input costs going into the production of the cars.

On the other hand, the Nissan Sunny diesel variant is now available at a smart price of Rs 7.98 lakh and Rs 8.78 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) for the base XL and XV diesel variants respectively.  Another MPV, Nissan NV200 and a mini SUV based on a Renault Duster platform are up for launch though with a wide gap separating the two most awaited launches.
