    Despite that it is only in a concept form, we highly believe that the vehicle is going to conquer the markets one day. The first reason for this is that it is built over a fully producible platform, this of Datsun GO+. And secondly, it gas the same iconic design features as GO+. Therefore it would be a perfect continuation of the family.

    Nearly three decades after the Datsun name was used, the car returns in full strength and beauty. Its first model was announced in 2012 and was specifically intended for Indian market. This has happened in March 2014. Since then, more than 100,000 (114 000 units to be more precise) new Datsuns have been sold through out four countries: India, Indonesia, Russia and South Africa.

    In other words, it is a logical step for Datsun to launch a totally new model at the beginning of 2016 and by the way it will be the first Nissan Motor model based on the new Renault-Nissan Alliance CMF-A architecture. Representatives of the brand promise that whatever happens, Datsun will always keep its core values of ‘Dream, Access and Trust’.
