2015 Nissan Micra Video, First Look
The Nissan Micra debuted at the Montreal Auto Show earlier this year, but the company announced pricing today at the 2014 Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto.
And what a price it is. The car starts at $9,998 to be the cheapest car in Canada. That’s an important distinction because Mitsubishi isn’t currently planning to market the car to its U.S. customers. Here’s what you’re missing out on: a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with just over 100 hp mated to either a five-speed manual or a CVT for an extra charge.
At the base level, the car comes with crank windows and skips air conditioning. But hey, it’s cheap.

The guy in the video sure seems to have a chip on his shoulder about something. Who does he think he is Jeremy Clarkson?
On the Nissan site (http://nissannews.com/en-CA/nissan/canada/presskits/ca-2015-nissan-micra-press-kit?gclid=COCEjLzK1bwCFUOSfgodFQQAcQ) they're saying it has an available 4 spd auto, no mention of a cvt :(
