Nissan Pulsar
One of the most attractive features of the new Pulsar is the abundance of space available for the interior, the tall stance and longer wheelbase result in extraordinary amounts of leg, head and shoulder room. With a car as spacious as the new Pulsar you would somewhat expect boot space to be sacrificed as a result, this is definitely not the case as there is a very useful 365 litres of luggage capacity.
In addition the choice of engines available is simple but very effective, there is a choice of a turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol DIG-T which produces a very healthy 113bhp. Or alternatively the diesel option, a 1.5-litre diesel dCi which produces again a very strong 108bhp. The bonus of picking the Diesel option is its brilliant fuel efficiency, Nissan claims an average of 78.5mpg and if you are looking at keeping your running costs down the diesel is the engine for you. The low CO2 emissions of just 94g/km are also a very attractive factor for anyone looking at reducing their carbon footprint.
In recent times Nissan has been pioneering the way for in car technology and increasing the levels of safety available to its customers. Nissan has also packed the new Pulsar full of gadgets, the NissanConnect system comes as standard and integrates your smartphone into the car’s system. Various models in the range come fully equipped with automatic headlights, daytime running LED lights, self-cleaning reversing camera and 18inch alloys.
There is such an array of talent to choose from across the family hatchback range and in such a competitive market the Pulsar stands up in the crowd! With its major attraction being the ultimately spacious interior and if you opt for the diesel option the impressive fuel efficiency.
