BOTTOMLINE
Nissan’s Micra Active has superior all-round visibility that is
slightly marred by the thick C-pillar. It has bulbous outcrops
flanking the bonnet and this makes it a rarity among modern cars where
the bonnet is almost never visible and this makes parking in tight
spots extremely easy. Micra Active lives up to its tagline ‘drive
easy, live better’.
Active’s front seats are quite comfortable but the same can’t be said
about the rear bench. Though legroom is adequate, the seats severely
lack thigh support, and that makes it the car with the least
comfortable rear bench and not the best one to be chauffeur-driven in.
Surprisingly, its competitor.
