Nissan Micra EV review (2025 onwards) | Expert Rating

Summary

The Nissan Micra is an upcoming small electric five-door hatchback. It was previewed in early 2025 and is expected to launch in late 2025.

The new Micra is based on the new Renault 5 E-Tech, and will be built in the same factory in France. It has been designed at Nissan’s design studio in London.

As yet, we don’t have full details and specifications for the new Micra. We do know that it will offer a choice of two battery sizes, same as the Renault 5, and we expect that its overall performance and driving range will be similar to the Renault.

As far as we know, there are no plans to offer a petrol or hybrid version of the new Micra.

We’ll update this page as more information about the new Nissan Micra becomes available. We expect UK pricing and specification information to be published in Autumn 2025, with the car arriving here either later in the year or early 2026.

Key specifications

The first media reviews of the Nissan Micra are likely to appear in late 2025. Keep checking back for the latest updates.

Independent crash test and safety ratings from Euro NCAP

No safety rating

We don’t expect the Nissan Micra to undergo Euro NCAP safety testing until late 2025 or early 2026. Keep checking back for the latest information as soon as it becomes available.

Independent economy and emissions ratings from Green NCAP

No eco rating

We don’t expect the Nissan Micra to undergo Green NCAP emissions testing until 2026 at the earliest.

The Green NCAP programme measures exhaust pollution (which is zero for an electric car) and energy efficiency. Electric cars are much more energy-efficient than combustion cars, so the Micra is likely to score very highly in Green NCAP testing if and when it takes place. Check back again soon.
