At a glance
· Elegant Coupé & Fun Convertible
· 2+2 seating
· 1.4 and new 1.6-litre engine options
· C-VIEW: All-glass hardtop
· Auto-Open Roof: one-touch operation - no manual interaction
· Just 22 seconds to raise or lower roof
· Class leading luggage space
· Built in the UK at Europe’s most productive plant
The eagerly awaited Nissan Micra C+C coupé/convertible is almost here. Unveiled today (15 June) at the NMUK manufacturing plant in Sunderland, England, sales of the stylish 2+2 are due to start towards the end of the year.
First shown as a concept at the 2002 Paris motor show, the production version brings new ideas to its market segment: the folding hardtop is made largely of glass to create an open-air feeling whether the roof is up or stowed away.
Development and production of the hardtop has been undertaken for Nissan by Karmann, specialists in the design and production of convertible models. In common with all European Micras, Micra C+C will be built at Sunderland so Karmann has established a small production facility within NMUK where the hardtop modules will be fitted to the Micra platforms.
Undeniably elegant, Micra C+C is lower and longer than the hatchback Micra. The roof line, dictated by the steeply raked windscreen, is 110mm lower than on the conventional car while it is also 90mm longer overall: the extra length is all to the rear of the car, to create the room needed to stow the hardtop behind the rear +2 seats.
The hardtop itself is a work of art. It can be raised or lowered with one touch of a button while the vehicle is on the move and takes just 22 seconds to fold clamshell-style beneath the double-hinged trunk lid. It is hinged at the bottom and opens front to rear when the roof is raised or lowered and at the top when opened conventionally to stow luggage.
Thanks to the Auto-Open Roof, just one button needs to be pushed when hydraulically raising or lowering the roof – an automatic latching system does away with the need to manually lock or unlock the roof’s leading edge to the windscreen header rail.
But as well as having stunning looks, Micra C+C remains resolutely practical, enjoying class leading luggage space. With the roof lowered the boot area provides 221 litres of stowage space, which rises to an impressive 426 litres when it is in place.
In addition the cabin has many clever storage areas, most of which are lockable allowing the car to be left unattended even when the roof is down.
Micra C+C, which represents a €150 million investment, will be available with either the recently enhanced 65kW (88hp) 1.4-litre petrol engine or the newly developed 81kW (110hp) 1.6 16 valve twin cam petrol unit as powers the potent new Micra 160SR.
"The beauty of the Micra C+C lies in its elegant glass hardtop. Micra C+C is the only coupé/convertible in its class to have this feature which allows the owner to enjoy the feeling of open air motoring at all times no matter how the weather is behaving," said Brian Carolin, Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Nissan Europe.
