The extended range variant of the Nissan Micra has become eligible for the Electric Car Grant (ECG), reducing its price to £23,245.

Nissan Micra models with the smaller 40kWh battery were already eligible for the £1,500 ECG, and the addition of a European-sourced battery has made the 52kWh model eligible for the full £3,750 grant.

Prices for the entry-level model start at £21,495.

Nissan said that the first UK deliveries of the Micra will be in April.

Pricing mirrors that of the mechanically-related Renault 5, which is also eligible for the ECG.

Nissan is also offering more affordable personal contract purchase (PCP) deals on the Micra, with monthly payments for the 40kWh model starting at £293, while the 52kWh model will start at £333.

James Taylor, managing director of Nissan GB, said: “Our new battery supplier means our longer-range Micra 52kWh now qualifies for the full £3,750 ECG, ensuring great value for money for our customers.

“It also means that both of our new model launches so far this year – Micra and Leaf – are available with the maximum EV grant discount, demonstrating Nissan’s continued leadership in providing accessible and exciting electric cars for people keen to switch to zero emission motoring.”
