Nissan Micra ELLE announced

The Nissan Micra ELLE is a limited-edition version of the mid-range Micra Acenta.

In addition to the Acenta’s air-conditioning, keyless entry and cruise control fitted as standard, the ELLE has a panoramic glass roof, 15-inch alloy wheels, chrome trim on the grille and a roof spoiler. The interior gets chrome door handles, new seat upholstery and the Nissan Connect sat-nav and infotainment system is available as an option.

The Micra gets ELLE badging on the tailgate and front wings, front floor mats and front door guards. There are three colours to choose from: Shiraz Red, Alabaster White and Atlas Blue.

Buyers of the Nissan Micra ELLE have the choice of two engines – the 79bhp 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol, or the supercharged 1.2-litre DIG-S model, which develops 97bhp yet produces 99g/km of CO2.

Just 500 examples of the limited-edition model, made by Nissan in collaboration with the famous ELLE fashion magazine, will be made available to UK buyers.

The Nissan Micra ELLE goes on sale on 1 September, with prices starting at £12,000.
