Datsun redi-Go

The Datsun redi-Go is a city car produced by Datsun, a brand from Nissan, initially intended for the Indian market. A concept vehicle was unveiled at 2014 Auto Expo[2] and the production model was unveiled on 14 April 2016. The redi-Go is targeted at a younger market.

Characteristics

The redi-Go uses the CMF-A platform as the Renault Kwid, which was launched earlier, with the same 0.8-litre BR08 three-cylinder petrol engine with a 40 kW power output and 72 Nm of torque,[3] coupled to a 5-speed manual transmission. In addition to the original 0.8-litre engine, a 1.0-litre BR10 engine option was also added in 2017. It produces 50 kW and 91 Nm of torque.[4]

The redi-Go is comparably lighter, shorter, and has a larger ground clearance (185 mm) than the Kwid.[5]

Safety

The redi-Go for India with driver airbag received 1 star for adult occupants and 2 stars for toddlers from Global NCAP 1.0 in 2019 (similar to Latin NCAP 2013).[6]
