Nissan Micra Fuel Consumption (MPG & km/L)

Since its introduction in 1993, the Nissan Micra has earned a solid reputation as a dependable, practical, and dependable supermini. It wasn't a very popular model, though, until the 2017 launch of the current one.

The Nissan Micra lacks hybridisation and diesel engines, making it one of the least fuel-efficient superminis. Real-world fuel economy should be in the 40s, compared to full hybrid competitors like the Toyota Yaris and Honda Jazz, which can easily reach over 50 mpg in mixed driving and even more impressive urban economy.

Our initial choice for the Nissan Micra with the lowest operating costs was the 1.2-litre model with a manual gearbox, which averages 56.5 mpg on the combined run. Nonetheless, since Nissan unveiled the 1.2-litre DIG-S (Direct Injection Gasoline-Supercharged) petrol engine in July 2011, the astute consumer must choose this engine. It generates 96 horsepower and returns an average of 68.9 mpg.

Nissan Micra Fuel Consumption

Compared to manual Micras, automatic models will use a little bit more fuel.

The low CO2 emissions of the three-cylinder engines make them suitable for fleets and individuals seeking a low annual road tax bill. CO2 emissions from the 1.2-litre engine coupled to the five-speed manual gearbox are 115g/km, while emissions from the same engine coupled to the CVT gearbox are 125g/km. With the release of the 1.2 DIG-S engine in July 2011, Nissan Micra emissions became even more environmentally friendly. This engine emits an impressive 95g/km of CO2.

Nissan Micra Fuel Efficiency Figures

The fuel consumption of the Nissan Micra is shown below in both MPG (Miles Per Gallon) and km/L (Kilometers Per Litre). Both of these figures show you how far that particular Nissan Micra variant can travel for every gallon (4.55 litres) and every litre (1000ml) of fuel. The higher the MPG or km/L value, the more economical the car is and the cheaper it will be to run. As well as providing the combined figures, we also give you the fuel consumption you can expect from a Nissan Micra in urban / city driving conditions as well as what can be expected on the open highway / motorway.

How To Calculate Real Fuel Consumption Of Your Nissan Micra

The 'real fuel consumption' shows you the amount of fuel your Nissan Micra is consuming to travel a fixed distance. This is normally shown as L/100km. This figure shows you the amount of fuel consumed in litres for every 100kms travelled. This is the most commonly used figure for showing the fuel consumption of a vehicle. The formula to calculate it is:

(Litres of fuel used X 100) / Kilometers travelled = L/km.
