Shelbourne Motors Nissan is counting down to the launch of the exciting Micra DIG-S.
The new model sets a high standard for the current generation of city cars and is available from Shelbourne Motors in Portadown onTandragee Roadnow.
Known as the DIG-S, the engine is a direct injection unit with a supercharger – hence the car’s name; Direct Injection Gasoline-Supercharger. The new model represents the latest in low-emission technology, offering the performance of a bigger petrol engine but with the fuel economy of a diesel. What’s more, the DIG-S costs just £1000 more than the non-supercharged version.
Owners will also see savings at the petrol pumps, with diesel currently averaging 4.1p per litre more than petrol.
The new model delivers sparkling performance, frugal economy and exceptionally low emissions. It has been designed to meet and exceed the everyday driving demands of the modern world.
The ultra-low emission 1.2 litre, three cylinder supercharged petrol engine emits only 95g/km for the Visia version and 99g/km for the better equipped Acenta and Tekna models.
More energy is saved by using an intelligent alternator which recharges the battery when the engine power is not in demand, such as under braking. A stop/start function also helps to reduce emissions and fuel consumption by automatically turning off the engine whilst stationary and restarts again when you are ready to move off.
The engine is available as a 5-speed manual or with an optional advanced CVT automatic gearbox for an additional £1,000.
Paul Ward, Dealer Principal at Shelbourne Motors, said: “The DIG-S is a fantastic addition to the Micra family and sets new standards for the current generation of city cars. No other petrol-powered compact hatchback can beat its overall efficiency. It is great that we can offer a car with such low running costs whilst at the same time being environmentally friendly and powerful.
“The new Micra is one of our most popular vehicles and the addition of the supercharged engine means we can offer customers wanting that little extra power from the Micra and economy too, the perfect car.”
The Micra DIG-S will be available from Shelbourne Motors from the 1st September. For further information or to arrange a test drive, please contact the dealership on 028 3839 6801.
