Tokyo-based aftermarket specialist Impul has released a tuning kit for the Nissan March/Micra.
The facelifted March/Micra is not the type of car you would normally
imagine going through the garage of a tuner but it happened in Tokyo
where Impul created a wide body kit for the petite Japanese city car.
Showcased earlier this month at Tokyo Auto Salon, the vehicle received a
redesigned front bumper with a large spoiler lip along with bigger side
skirts and a new rear bumper.
The most noticeable exterior modification is without any doubt the
added rear wing but there's nothing going on in the engine department to
match the aggressive looks. Other changes include vertical strips of
LED daytime running lights sitting next to the fog lights in the lower
front grille, as well as the tuner's RS S-05 alloy wheel set.
The base Visia model has electric front windows, remote central
locking, ABS, ESP, several airbags, power steering and CD/AUX/USB.
Acenta rides on 15-inch rims and comes with additional equipment such as
automatic lights and wipers, Bluetooth, front fog lights and several
cosmetic tweaks. The range-topping Tekna has 16-inch wheels, park
assist, parking sensors, climate control, panoramic glass roof, new paint hues, keyless start, folding door
mirrors and 5.8-inch touchscreen Nissan Connect media/sat-nav system.
Engine lineup includes the same 3-cylinder, 1.2-liter gasoline mill
and a supercharged 1.2-liter DIG-S gasoline engine which can do 57.3 mpg
US (68.9 mpg UK or 4.1 liters / 100 km) and has CO2 emissions of 95
g/km. These are mated to a standard five-speed manual transmission or an
optional CVT.
It should be noted Nissan is offering hotter Nismo and Nismo S
versions of the March in Japan, with the latter providing 116 HP (85
kW) and 115 lb-ft (156 Nm) from a 1.5-liter engine mated to a five-speed
manual gearbox.
