The Nissan Micra is now in its sixth generation, and the newest iteration is the first in the model’s 40-plus-year run to be purely electric.

After more than 40 years on the market, and now in its sixth generation, the all-new Nissan Micra will finally be electric powered.

With the launch of the Micra EV just around the corner, Nissan GB has given the 350SR version of its reliable hatchback a final flourish.

The cherry blossom theme has been a fixture of Nissan’s livery since Season 9 of the championship two years ago.
