Sneak in to the "GO"
DATSUN GO - The new ray of hope for Nissan to win the hearts
of Indians. Had a chance to see the car
in flesh at the Phoenix Market City – Velachery. The display was part of the promo being done
across malls in India to familiarize the brand and its baby to the Janta. Did a quick sneak peek review of the car and
here is my take:
- Car on display was a higher trim.
- Overall car looks good, exterior styling is neat. Will give tough completion in the looks department
to the vehicles it is pitched against – Alto 800/K10, Eon.
- Front grille with the Datsun badge is an eye
catcher of sorts.
- Paint job is decent
- Single Wipers with double arm do the duty
- Interior trim parts don’t look cheap for its
segment. Bit hard though.
- Instrument panel is pretty basic and
primitive. No audio on any variant. Mobile holder and USB charging point
provided.
- Steering wheel – just basic. Handling can’t be judged now.
- No glove box – open slot for things – serious
let down.
- Instrument cluster as the analog speedometer. No provision of RPM display. Displays the optimum gear choice for
speeds. Will help avoid lugging. Digital display provided. Should display KM churned and trip meter.
- Gear knob mounted on the center console attached
to the IP frees up space on front seat.
Psuedo bench seats can accommodate a kid in the middle, though GO is claimed to be pure
5 seater, this makes it a 5.5 seater.
- Interior look spacious, but would be tight for
6 footers. Head room is just OK kind,
not a tall boy design.
- Rear seats have just the basic cushioning, long
drives – better to have additional reinforcements in place.
- Glowing display of “GO” on the sil is a nice
thing.
- Rear boot is a just too big for an entry level
car. GO will win this section hands
down. Parcel tray was absent. Not sure whether it has been moved to the
accessories list.
- Front doors have power windows with central
locking. Rear doors have roll down
mechanism in place.
- ORVM’s don’t have a knob mechanism to adjust
even on the higher end – a could have been there feature
- Panel gaps look bit uneven. Being a built to cost car – no complaints.
- Doors close with a clink noise (metal to metal)
rather than a thud. Weather strips...
- Overall, a pretty nicely packaged car with big pluses on the
looks, space (especially the boot) and power train front. Being touted a sub 4 lac car sounds good. Can be a winner and has all credentials to
give the Suzuki guys a run for their money/ numbers. All the best DATSUN – Go!
Coming to the pics of the day.. all are mobile cam pics (bound to be average)

Insightful report. Very clear with photos. Glowing LOGO on the SILL is actually an accessory. Glove Box & Fog Lamp is being developed as Accessory
