Nissan Pixo 1.0 Gasoline (50 kW) / 1st gen
Vehicle Characteristics
The Nissan Pixo 1.0 Gasoline (50 kW) is a compact city car from the first generation, designed for drivers who value simplicity and efficiency in urban environments. Powered by a 1.0-liter gasoline engine delivering 50 kW, it offers nimble handling and straightforward performance, making it well-suited for daily commutes and tight city streets. The Pixo’s compact size and economical engine make it appealing to budget-conscious drivers or those seeking an easy-to-maneuver vehicle.
Owners have reported that the 1.0-liter engine, while efficient, can feel underpowered during highway driving or when carrying multiple passengers. Some drivers mention a basic suspension setup that may transmit bumps on rough roads, and the brakes, though adequate for city speeds, can lack strong initial bite. Transmission performance is generally smooth, but a few users have noted occasional notchy gear changes in manual variants.
