Nissan Micra Returns as All‑Electric with Exciting Trims, Pricing, and Bold New Styling
Nissan has officially relaunched the Micra as a fully electric hatchback, ushering its iconic supermini into the EV era. Built on the Renault–Nissan AmpR Small platform alongside the Renault 5 E-Tech and produced in France, the all-new Micra is poised to hit UK roads by late 2025 or early 2026.
Trim Levels & Pricing
Nissan has confirmed three distinct trim levels at launch:
- Engage – Entry-level, available only with the 40 kWh battery (WLTP range: approximately 198 miles). Priced at £22,995.
- Advanced – Mid-range, offered with the 40 kWh battery from £24,995, or with the larger 52 kWh battery (up to ~260 miles) from £26,995.
- Evolve – Top-tier trim, only available with the 52 kWh battery, priced at £29,865.
Nissan anticipates eligibility for the UK’s £1,500 Electric Car Grant (ECG), and if confirmed in time, will honor it for orders placed by the end of August 2025.
Electric Range & Charging Capabilities

The 40 kWh battery supports a WLTP range of around 198 miles, while the 52 kWh battery delivers up to 260 miles of range.

Fast charging allows the Micra to charge from 15% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes, using an 80 kW charger for the smaller battery or 100 kW for the larger one.

Dual‑battery trims include standard heat pumps and battery thermal management for improved efficiency.
Design & Interior

The new Micra showcases a bolder, SUV‑inspired aesthetic, with wider proportions, sharp lines, and sculpted flanks. Signature “bug‑eye” headlights feature a playful “welcome wink” animation upon unlocking.
-
Buyers can choose from 14 exterior colour combinations, including two‑tone finishes.
-
Inside, the cabin is both stylish and tech‑forward: twin 10.1‑inch screens (digital instrument and infotainment), Google Built‑In connectivity (Maps, Assistant, Play), Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and ambient Multisense lighting with 48 colours.

Interior trim themes include Modern, Audacious, and Chill, with subtle nods to Nissan’s heritage—such as a Mount Fuji motif embedded in the console.

The Micra offers a practical 326 litre boot, expandable to 1,106 litres with rear seats folded.
Safety & Technology
Standard features across trims include ProPILOT Assist (adaptive cruise and lane centring), emergency braking, blind-spot intervention, rear cross-traffic alert, and driver monitoring systems.
Unique conveniences like Vehicle‑to‑Load (V2L) technology support powering external devices directly from the car battery.
What It Means for Norton Way Nissan
With its blend of affordability, cutting-edge EV tech, playful styling, and high practicality, the all‑new Nissan Micra presents an outstanding proposition for UK EV buyers. Norton Way Nissan can highlight its availability across three trims, competitive pricing, and generous standard equipment through press releases, social posts, or customer email updates—emphasizing the Micra’s return as both a storied name and a forward‑looking EV.
