Datsun redi-GO Price in Nepal 2026

The Datsun redi-GO is offered with two engine options: a 0.8L and a 1.0L i-SAT (Intelligent Fuel Efficiency Systems) petrol engine. Both are 3-cylinder, naturally aspirated units featuring DOHC and 4 valves per cylinder. The 0.8L engine produces 54 PS (53.64 bhp) and 72 Nm of torque, while the larger 1.0L unit delivers 68 PS (67 bhp) and 91 Nm. These engines utilize MPFI (Multi-Point Fuel Injection) and are optimized for high fuel economy in urban environments.

Performance in the redi-GO is geared toward city maneuverability rather than outright speed. The 0.8L variant reaches 100 km/h in approximately 15.9 seconds. The 1.0L variant is noticeably punchier, shaving about 1.5 seconds off that time. The top speed is aerodynamically limited to approximately 140 km/h for the 0.8L and 150 km/h for the 1.0L version.

Datsun provides a standard 5-speed manual transmission across both engine sizes. For the 1.0L engine, a 5-speed Smart Drive AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) is available, featuring a 'Creep' function that allows the car to crawl at 5-6 km/h in traffic without throttle input. The drivetrain is a standard Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) setup with a dry single-plate clutch.

The redi-GO boasts a class-leading unladen ground clearance of 187 mm, giving it a distinct "SUV-inspired" stance. It measures 3,435 mm in length, 1,574 mm in width, and 1,546 mm in height. With a wheelbase of 2,348 mm and a tight turning radius of 4.7 meters, it is arguably one of the most agile cars for narrow city lanes.

Despite its small footprint, the "tall-boy" design allows for a respectable 222-litre boot. The fuel tank capacity is 28 litres, which, combined with an ARAI mileage of up to 22 km/l (on the AMT), provides a theoretical driving range of over 600 km per tank. It is strictly a 5-seater hatchback.

The facelifted redi-GO saw improvements in safety equipment, featuring ABS with EBD, Driver Airbag, Rear Parking Sensors, and Speed Warning systems as standard. The top-spec T(O) variant adds a Passenger Airbag and a Reverse Parking Camera. However, its structural integrity resulted in a 1-star Global NCAP rating during its production lifecycle.

The chassis uses a MacPherson Strut with Double Pivot Arm at the front and an H-Type Torsion Beam at the rear with coil springs. This setup is tuned for a soft ride to soak up bumps. Braking is handled by Discs at the front and Drums at the rear. The car rides on 165/70 R14 tyres with dual-tone wheel covers on higher trims.

The post-2020 interior was a major upgrade, featuring an 8-inch Advanced Touchscreen Infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. The instrument cluster is a semi-digital unit with an analog speedometer and a digital tachometer/MID. It features a manual climate control system with high-gloss silver finishes on the center console.

Datsun offered a standard warranty of 2 years or unlimited kilometers, extendable up to 5 years. Service intervals are every 10,000 km or 1 year. A unique proprietary tech is the "i-SAT" (Intelligent Fuel Efficiency System), which optimizes the air-fuel mixture based on driving conditions to maximize the fuel economy of the 3-cylinder engines.
