The Datsun brand name has a long and rich motoring heritage among South African car enthusiasts for many decades, and the Datsun GO will offer first-time new car buyers accessible motoring options.
As the name suggests, the Datsun GO will bring to the local market a vehicle that is designed for people on the go; people who are active, have defined priorities and pursue the optimum choice for their stage of life.
Starting with a clean sheet, Datsun designers have been able to create a totally new and distinctive design for the Datsun brand models of the 21st century. The Datsun GO is stylish and modern, but at the same time purposeful and robust.
In keeping with the Datsun design ethos, the interior of the Datsun GO is modern, simple, functional, yet undeniably good looking. Uniquely in the class is the gear lever and parking brake handle that are mounted in the centre console.
Datsun GO offers much to customers, from modern exterior styling, fuel consumption of just 20km per liter, a unique Mobile Docking Station (MDS) that allows its owner to sync his or her smartphone directly with the car.
The MDS simply slots the smartphone into a holder in the centre of the dashboard, which can be paired by an AUX cable to the car’s system and the car’s integrated door mounted loudspeakers.
The aim is to bring in the car at under R100 000, making it a real value proposition for the first-time car buyer.
Sales and service will be initially established through a network of 30 Datsun branded dealerships throughout South Africa, a number to be doubled in mid-term.
Selected High line features of the Datsun GO – a new modern choice for up-and-coming aspiring owners include:
• Modern styled five-door hatchback.
• Fuel efficient 1.2 litre engine.
• Fuel efficiency of over 20km per litre.
• Expanded front seat configuration.
• Spacious interior for five occupants.
• Unique Mobile docking station.
