The Nissan Micra , launched in India recently has met with immense success in its home market, Japan. Nissan managed to register over 10,000 bookings within two weeks of the vehicle’s launch. Nissan only expected 4,000 orders every month but as it turns out, the orders are two and a half times as many. Interestingly, silver seems to be the most preferred colour as are black interiors. The Japanese spec Micra comes with the same HR 12DE 3-cylinder engine as the Indian model and features Start-Stop technology, with ABS, EBD, SRS airbags and SRS side airbags, load limiter with pretensioners for the seatbelts, linked front wipers, dawn sensors and multi-reflector halogen headlights with manual control. As a result of the CVT and Stop-Start, the new Micra achieves a segment leading 26km/l in Japan.

Surprisingly, without any form of intimation, Suzuki have revealed the facelifted Alto with the 1.0L K-Series engine at the 18th Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS 2010) that was thrown open to visitors on the 24th of this month. While we Indians still make do with spy pictures , the lucky people in Indonesia get to see the real deal till the 1st of August. The theme at IIMS 2010 is “Eco-Technology Motoring”, where car manufacturers are fighting it out to prove that their car is the greenest. The Indonesian Alto comes with a 5-speed gearbox with CVT as an option. Also on display at the show are the R3 MPV, Kizashi and a Swift GT3 car with a 1.5-liter petrol engine.

Maruti Suzuki have announced that they will fix 6,000 Altos produced in April this year for oil leakage problems. India’s largest car maker has asked its entire dealer network (800 centres and about 2,740 service workshops) to identify, check and repair the affected Altos . In other words, this could be a recall with the company asking its customers to get their vehicles checked but the company spokesperson feels otherwise. Maruti produced as many as 64,500 Altos between April and June and the exact number of cars facing the problem are under investigation. The problems in Altos are said to have cropped up when the F8D 3-cylinder engines were upgraded to meet BS-4 emission norms. The decision comes after dealers in Delhi and NCR have started receiving complaints on oil leakages during May and June. A Delhi based dealer has recalled nearly 30 vehicles to have them checked. An Auto Expert said “The engine comes with some design changes incorporated in its core structure, which could have led to this problem. It can affect the pressure in the engine and also impact car’s performance,” Suzuki recalls 10000 Automatic versions of Altos in Europe May 2010 Suzuki Alto/A-Star Recall Dec 2009 [ET]
