Both models are using the same proven all-aluminium 4-cylinder petrol engine and offered with a 4-speed auto transmission as standard. Regrettably, the Latio 1.6-litre manual has now been discontinued. The power plants for both models are similar to its other sibling like the Nissan Grand Livina 1.6-litre and 1.8-litre line-up.

Nissan claims fuel efficiency figures of 7.1L/100km for the 1.6 sedan and 7.8 L/100km for the 1.8 hatch respectively.

 

On the exterior, the new Latio can be easily identified by its newly designed front grille, front bumper, rear bumper, head lamps and tail lamps.
