The New
Nissan Sunny is attempting to muscle in on the big success of the 2014
Honda City subcompact, with a revamp of its own. With prices starting at
just 7.29 lakhs, it might just be able to make a solid impression over
the slightly more expensive City.
The Japanese automaker first brought the Sunny to India in 2011 and this has helped them climb to the second largest exporter of vehicles to the country behind Honda.
Nissan Chief Planning Officer Andy Palmer says Nissan considers India one of their key markets and are looking to extend their share from 6.2% to 6.7% by the end of the year. Their key product for doing this is the Sunny, which will challenge the 2014 Honda City – a huge success across India, Asia and the Middle East.
According to projections, even if they do not surpass the sales of the City, the MPV segment is still set to grow, meaning there’s still room for Nissan to expand. By the end of the 2016 financial year they hope to have opened 300 dealerships.
In terms of specs the two subcompacts are quite similar, though the City has the horsepower edge, with 118bhp for its top trim, compared to 100bhp for the Sunny. Both vehicles sport 1.5 litre petrol and diesel engine variants.
Both cars are even similar in looks, with neither having a particular advantage in terms of style or class.
