Datsun Redi-Go hatchback spotted testing

Earlier this year, Datsun had disclosed that it will introduce its third product for India in 2016. The new product is believed to be the production version of the Redi-Go concept that was showcased at the 2014 Auto Expo. Now a test mule of the vehicle has been spotted.

While the spy image show the Redi-Go wearing a lot of camouflage, its rear design appears to very close to that of the concept.

The Redi-Go will be Datsun's entry-level hatchback and will be positioned below the Go hatchback. It will compete with the Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 and Hyundai Eon in the A segment. It will use Renault-Nissan's CMF-A platform, which is also found in the Renault Kwid.

To power the Redi-Go, Datsun is expected to use the Kwid's 800cc, 3-cylinder petrol engine. It is also likely to get the same 5-speed manual gearbox as the Kwid.
