  • The $10,000 Nissan Micra, one of the lowest cost cars available in Canada, is also used for racing duty across the country in the Nissan Micra Cup series. We got a chance to try these little racers out, and this series is proof that subcompact cars can be awesome fun in addition to being budget friendly.

    These cars are more fun than they look. I just saw them body roll around Mosport yesterday. They are incredibly cute and faster than I thought. The racing is also really good. Competitive and close! It just goes to show small can be powerful if done right!

    i have driven Micra for one week and it is a really fun car and the power just good for the size of car and suspension.

    The Micra can be a great sleeper, this car scares a lot for its size and it is too much for the driver. With that 1.6, you will have fun and happiness. 💥😁

    Didn't know such a thing existed, it's pretty nice to see people racing normal cars like the Micra. And it's sad the crash videos have more visualizations than this one. Why the hell ppl want to watch accidents?

    Uh, you don't have to go to Canada for B-Spec racing. The U.S. has events by the Sports Car Club of America. The Micra isn't sold in the U.S. due to less features, like fewer airbags!!, & the Versa Note is Nissan's bestseller here. Also, you don't have to race a Micra for subcompact fun. In 2013, you guys did a review on Mazda2 B-Spec.

    • @ProBenja5
      @ProBenja5 7 лет назад +1

      They both have 6 airbags and about the same equipment in base trim.

    • @cadsux
      @cadsux 7 лет назад

      Forgive my ignorance. I was reading old 2013 material. Is it the same crash protection? How about emissions?

    • @ProBenja5
      @ProBenja5 7 лет назад +1

      cadsux Emissions should be the same as it's the same exact engine that the Versa has and it scored 4 out of 5 stars in the Euro Ncap, same score as the Versa Note.

  • @akeemperez8509
    @akeemperez8509 7 лет назад +1

    that's very very little horsepower....Nissan should equip a battery drive train in the back of that race car, since it's gutted out. not only could you save on fuel performance would be greatly improved. it's a win win in my eyes

    • @akeemperez8509
      @akeemperez8509 7 лет назад +1

      you know make it a hybrid. that would be dope and make it under 26 grand

    • @halmrkcrdz2494
      @halmrkcrdz2494 6 лет назад +1

      No one is paying 26k for a Micra...there so light and peppy fun enough as is

  • @SemNome-zt4cn
    @SemNome-zt4cn 7 лет назад +2

    I like this car, but would be nice to see a Nismo version with at least 220hp, just making a comparison: the Seat Leon Supercopa is the cup version of the Seat Leon Cupra, but is power and max. speed are just phenomenal, also aerodynamics were improved. Please Nissan read this.
    (Nissan: that will never happen lol)

  • @Driftuner
    @Driftuner 7 лет назад

    Its "what wins the race on sunday, sells on monday". Sorry Nissan, but a 90s little pop-up headlight mx-5 tuned to race-spec will still cost less then the Micra itself, let alone when compared the the spec Micra...

    Hey our American money is worth more. If I understood you, you claim the money in Canada is worth about 30% more. Then why is the exchange rate $0.77 USD for $1 Canadian Dollar?
