The new Nissan Micra will be able to have many elements of security and comfort among which we can emphasize the system of vision 360º, the alert of change of lane, object detector in blind angle, alloy wheels, access keyless, start by button, lighthouses LED, etc.

Curiously they will not be able to have rear electric windows, a huge error in a segment in which they are becoming more habitual and even some models already they include them of series in all the finishes, as it is the case of the Volkswagen Polo

The initial engine supply will consist of 0.9 TCe with 90 hp and the interesting 1.5 dCi diesel also with 90 hp.

The Cup hides under the hood an engine that develops 214 hp and 219 Nm of torque, as well as a suspension appropriate to the competition, improved aerodynamics and various adjustments in its ECU to squeeze the Japanese model to the maximum in the circuit.

As aesthetic improvements we find new tires signed by 17-inch O-Z Racing connected to Bilstein shock absorbers adjustable in two directions, with springs and Eibach stabilizer bars. Behind the front wheels are four-piston racing calipers from Alcon, while the rear brakes retain one-piston OE. The CS-Cup uses PFC brake pads that work together with a TMG brake cooling system.

In addition, a new exhaust system has been incorporated, which uses two FIA Motorsport catalytic converters and its boxer engine has received small adjustments in its control unit to maximize its benefits. These modifications allow the driver to change gears at full speed, which will allow us to scratch a few tenths to our opponent. In the body has been added a new front splitter, side skirts and a prominent aileron to keep the car always on the asphalt.
