What’s happened here is actually quite common in the auto industry – a decent looking sketch ends up translated into a not very appealing production model.
These leaked set of next generation Nissan Micra/March photos were leaked from Dongfeng Nissan production lines as the Chinese JV prepares to assemble it in China. It’s expected to run a HR16DE and a 4-speed auto/5-speed manual combo in China, but there’s probably also the HR15DE and a CVT transmission to choose from for other market needs.

Comments mainly express disappointment and criticism toward the Nissan Micra's design, especially noting it looks unattractive and fails to match the appealing sketch. Several remarks mention the poor quality of China-made cars, including cost-cutting effects visible in the final product. Some comments compare the design unfavorably to older models or other brands like Peugeot, and there’s concern that the production version may lose the sketch's original appeal. Overall, the sentiment is largely negative about the car's appearance and quality.
