Nissan boss says next Micra will be a Renault – report

The next Nissan Micra will be a rebadged Renault, according to Nissan boss Ashwani Gupta. Nissan will ask Renault to take the lead on developing and building the next-generation Micra, according to an interview in French newspaper Le Monde. While the Nissan Micra was dropped from the Australian market in 2016, the current model sold overseas shares engines and underpinnings with the Renault Clio, and is assembled in France alongside the Clio and Zoe.
