Since it is a limited edition, there are no changes made to the powertrain of the hatchback, it continues to draw the power from a 1.2l, three cylinder petrol motor that churns out 67bhp power@5000rpm and 104Nm of max torque@4000rpm, mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Speaking at the launch, Mr. Arun Malhotra, Managing Director – Nissan Motor India Pvt. Ltd. said, “We in India save most of our purchase decisions for the festival season.
