Nissan has been busy for quite some time for its yet to be launched Nissan Sunny sedan and recently at one of the media events it gave a little sneak peak and also revealed some details of the upcoming car.
During the Nissan Sunny media drive in Mahabalipuram, outside Chennai the Japanese officials did not disclose much though they did tell the car will come with a very competitive pricing strategy. The car will be has been launched on 20th September 2011 and for the time being the company will introduce a newly developed MPFI petrol engine. Prices of the Sunny start from Rs. 5.78 Lakhs ex-showroom, Delhi. For complete price list, check here.
The 1.5 Litre Petrol engine is expected to deliver a mileage of 16.95 KMPL and is 22 % better in terms of fuel economy that the ongoing 1.6 Litre petrol engine in China and USA. The point why the brand had to come up with a new engine, named as HR15DE, is that the number of price revisions on fuel here in India will affect the running cost of the car and hence a newer engine was a good choice.
