Datsun Go+ pre-bookings open up in India

Nissan has begun the pre-bookings of its soon-to-be-launched compact multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) – the Datsun Go+ in India. First previewed at the Delhi Auto Expo last year, the Datsun Go+, will be available for pre-booking between January 3-14, 2015.

The company has issued a media release stating that prospective customers can pre-book their Datsun Go+ MPV with a fully refundable amount of just Rs 11,000 at any Nissan dealership across India. (Also read: Datsun Go+ Review)

Making the announcement, Guillaume Sicard, President, Nissan India Operations, said, “We are happy to offer our latest product Datsun GO+, a segment-creating compact MPV to customers in India. The Datsun GO+ is our second product in the market after the Datsun GO and reiterates our commitment to India.”

The new Datsun Go+ is 3,995mm long, 1,635mm wide, 1,490mm high and has a wheelbase of 2,450mm. This forthcoming new MPV gets a 5+2 seating arrangement, and to achieve this Datsun has increased the overall length of the car by 210mm. Despite the increase in length and space for seven passengers, the Go+ falls under the four-metre mark which qualifies it for the lower excise duty benefits.

The new Datsun Go+ will come equipped with the 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine churning out 67PS of power and 104Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a five speed manual gearbox.

We expect the Datsun Go+ to come with a price tag of around Rs 3.60 lakh.
