2011 Nissan Micra
As you may know already Nissan unveiled its new 2011 Micra city car back in March at the Geneva Motor Show and will send it to the dealerships in November. For those who want this car we have bad news: according to the latest reports, it appears that the new car will not score five stars at the Euro NCAP crash tests. Why? The answer is quite simple, as the new Micra has been especially developed to be made and sold in emerging economies. The second bad news is that the Euro NCAP changed its rating system for 2010 and the cars must have stability control fitted as standard. 'We want to be competitive on safety, but to achieve the new five-star rating becomes outrageous" said Vincent Cobee, project director on the new Nissan Micra. The current version of the Micra has a four-star Euro NCAP rating.
