Is the Nissan Micra Active a good car?

Who is the Nissan Micra Active a good car for?
The Nissan Micra Active is a good car for someone who wants a small runabout but something with some youthful character to it. The Micra Active is something that's reliable and easy to maintain.
Is the Nissan Micra Active a good first car?
The Nissan Micra Active would make for an excellent first car. Its cutesy character and easy, fun-to-drive mechanics make it a welcoming vehicle and a good introduction to motoring.
Is the Nissan Micra Active a good family car?
The Nissan Micra Active would only work for smaller families, if anything, couples rather. It's a small hatchback so you're only looking at 265 litres of boot space. However, there are ISOFIX child seat anchors, so it can make a decent small family runabout.
Is there a Hybrid Nissan Micra Active?
There was no hybrid version of the Nissan Micra Active for sale in South Africa.

Reviewer's opinion
"How much Nissan Micra Active do you get for your money? A surprising amount!
It's the standard spec level that impresses, though."

What is the Nissan Micra Active like inside?
While the Nissan Micra Active is a refresher of the K13 Micra, the interior has been revised with new fabric on the seats, and the instrument cluster has been redesigned and has a new fascia too. Even though the Micra Active is a small hatchback, the cabin is surprisingly spacious and some attention has been paid to reducing cabin noise at travelling speeds.
Style
The Nissan Micra Active changes the styling from the K13 Micra to be more youthful and sporty. The exterior has been refreshed to show a small hatchback with big confidence to it. The Micra Active is rather attractive and welcoming to look at, with a 'Come and drive me!" feel to it.
