Nissan Pixo

 What is it?
Co-developed by Nissan with Suzuki, the Nissan Pixo is practically identical to the Suzuki Alto.

What is it like inside?
Suprisingly roomy inside, although the back seats are more suitable to children.

What is it like to drive?
While it may be cheap to run it is pretty dull to drive. That said it is perfect city car with a decent build and the Nissan seal of reliability.

What is it likely to cost?
At 4.4 litre per 100km fuel economy is particularly good. Prices start at €11,105.

Overall
Practical and cheap the Pixo is a cheerful but ultimately bland city car.
