I quite like the rear design. Reminds me of the Ritz a lot.No traction, more action! -
A closer look at the digital cluster shows tiny tachometer, which will take some effort to read while driving. It has instant fuel economy, trip meter, fuel gauge and the rpm as well. This car on display had a mileage reading of 29.9 kmpl
Expect figures upwards of 20 kmpl from the frugal 800cc motor.
The stalks are simple and in tune with the rest of the car. Front has a single wiper which gets the 'Mist' function and two speeds. No rear wash or wipe.
The Datsun redi-Go gets the conventional right-side indicator and headlight stalk.

Small cars are still popular in India. After Tata Tiago, this may be a big hit as people are showing great interest.Comment

Though, the headroom on offer is generous, the legroom at the rear is a concern. It is less than say, a Renault Kwid. The rear seat belts are non-retractable. That was to be expected, given that the Renault Kwid and Datsun Go also don't have retractable seat belts in the rear. Space is decent for two at the rear. Three is a squeeze. Floor is quite flat.

A quick look video done by Overdrive. Will be great value for money,like the Kwid.

The RediGo is definitely a better offering than the Go overall.
But within the family, I'd still prefer the Kwid, unless they price this considerably below the Kwid- in the Nano territory.
As it is always.... pricing will be key!

WHY THIS CHANGES.... DATSUN GO...GO+....REDI GO ?Comment

Okay, through some reliable sources in Nissan/Datsun I have got the following info about Redi-GO:- NO ABS - Just like the GO & GO+ it will have no ABS (unlike the Kwid which offers ABS)
- Music System - CD Player will come only in the top end, rest variants will have the Mobile Docking System (MDS) again like GO & GO+
- Price - And the biggest one, it will be launched at a much lower price than Kwid (surprisingly) at a launch price of about 2.38 Lacs ex-Delhi which is a brilliant pricing for an entry car

This is some valuable information! Datsun have to price the redi-GO below the Kwid, to make it more appealing. I think, with these kind of prices, it will be a massive hit. Doesn't the Tata Nano seems to be over-priced now?
PS: No ABS option in the Kwid yet.Comment

UPDATE : Datsun sent out an official statement saying it will be taking pre-bookings for the recently showcased Datsun redi-Go Urban Cross starting on May 1, 2016. There are multiple options on how you could book one - through their dealer network or on SnapDeal. The car will be priced between Rs. 2.5 lakh and Rs. 3.5 lakh, according to the official statement. The car can be booked with a token amount of Rs. 5000.
This price bracket has been the volume changer for manufacturers like Renault (with the Kwid). The top-selling Maruti Suzuki Alto is the main competitor of the lot, along with some of it's siblings from the same stable. High expectations from this car. Let's hope it creates the buzz for Datsun, which their earlier models failed to do.

Remember Nissan management not even considering Snapdeal for GO+ pre-bookings a year and a half back, despite continuous follow-ups by Snapdeal guys.
How times change.

Datsun India has announced the redi-GOs fuel efficiency figure. At 25.17km per litre, it is exactly the same as the Renault Kwid (CMF-A platform) which it is based on. The Datsun redi-GO gets the 0.8-litre three-cylinder petrol engine like the Kwid. Though Datsun hasn’t announced the power figures for this motor, expect it to be the same as the Kwid at 54BHP of power and 72Nm of peak torque. Since the redi-GO is light than the Kwid by 25kg, expect the redi-GO to offer sprightly performance.
The Datsun redi-GO is likely to come with five colour options - White, Silver, Ruby Red, Lime and Bronze Gray. Features include power steering, front power windows, LED daytime running lights, integrated music system and an optional driver-side airbag as well.

From the specifications it does sound like this is sharing the engine with the Kwid. I would not be surprised if they would have more parts shared among the two cars. As Kwid is already selling in high numbers, mass producing parts for both the cars would make sense, and would help keeping prices down for both the cars.Originally posted by NikilSJ View Post

Datsun which had earlier send out a press release, saying that their upcoming redi-Go hatch will start at Rs 2.5 lakhs. But, it seems like they are in taking the pricing game to an another level, with the Datsun website showing a starting price of Rs. 2,39,500. for the redi-Go. The official launch and variant-wise prices are scheduled for June 7th. With this kind of pricing and what seems to a decent offering the redi-Go is, it is likely to generate large sales volumes for Datsun. Check out our detailed redi-Go review.
