Nissan Micra 2025 Review: Price, Specs, Performance
The 2025 Nissan Micra marks a major change for one of Nissan’s longest-running small cars. The sixth-generation Micra is now fully electric, with a choice of 40 kWh and 52 kWh batteries, front-wheel drive and a compact five-door hatchback body designed primarily for the European market.
For buyers in Dubai, however, there is an important distinction to make before looking at specifications or price. The new electric Micra is not currently listed in Nissan Middle East’s official new-car range, so a Micra offered in the UAE may be an independently imported vehicle rather than a locally supplied GCC-market model.
That makes this Nissan Micra 2025 review less about invented desert testing and more about what Nissan actually confirms, what the two battery versions offer and what a UAE buyer should verify before purchasing one.

Is the 2025 Nissan Micra Available in the UAE?
Nissan launched the sixth-generation Micra as an electric B-segment hatchback for Europe. At the time of this update, Nissan Middle East does not list the new Micra among its official regional models.
That does not prevent an imported Micra from appearing among Cars for Sale in Dubai. It does mean buyers should distinguish between an independently imported European vehicle and a model supplied with official UAE-market support.
Before treating any advertised price as a normal Dubai retail price, confirm the vehicle’s original market, warranty status, charging specification and whether Nissan service facilities in the UAE will support that particular VIN.
Nissan Micra 2025 Battery and Performance
The electric Micra is available with two battery and motor configurations. The smaller version uses a 40 kWh usable battery and a 90 kW motor, equivalent to 120 PS. Nissan lists maximum torque at 225 Nm and acceleration from 0 to 62 mph at 9.0 seconds.
The larger 52 kWh version increases motor output to 110 kW, or 150 PS, with 245 Nm of torque. Nissan lists its 0-to-62 mph time at 8.0 seconds.
Both versions are front-wheel drive and use a single-speed electric drivetrain. Nissan lists a maximum speed of 93 mph, roughly 150 km/h, for both battery versions.
How Far Can the New Micra Travel?
Official range depends on battery size. Nissan currently quotes up to 196 miles of combined WLTP range for the 40 kWh Micra, equivalent to roughly 315 km. The 52 kWh version reaches up to 257 miles, or about 414 km, under the same test procedure.
Those figures should not be presented as guaranteed Dubai driving range. WLTP is a standardised laboratory-based comparison figure, while actual distance varies with speed, air-conditioning use, ambient temperature, driving style, vehicle load and battery state.
For a UAE buyer, that distinction matters. A seller claiming an exact real-world Dubai range such as 382 km should be able to explain the route, average speed, temperature, state of charge and driving conditions behind the result.
Dubai Buyer Check
Before Buying a Nissan Micra EV in the UAE
The new electric Micra is not currently listed in Nissan Middle East’s official new-car range. An imported example therefore needs several additional checks.
01
UAE availabilityConfirm Import Status
Check the VIN and original market. Do not assume a Dubai-listed Micra was originally supplied through Nissan Middle East.
02
PriceNo Official UAE Micra Price
Treat a local asking price as an importer or seller price unless Nissan publishes an official Middle East retail offer.
03
ChargingTest AC and DC Charging
Confirm that the vehicle charges correctly using the equipment and public charging network you intend to use.
04
SupportVerify Warranty and Service
A European battery warranty should not automatically be treated as valid for an independently imported UAE vehicle.
Check These Before Paying a Deposit
- VIN and original market
- Import and registration documents
- Battery warranty eligibility
- AC charging compatibility
- DC fast-charging operation
- NissanConnect account access
- Insurance availability
- Local parts and service support
Charging the Nissan Micra
Both battery versions include an 11 kW onboard AC charger in Nissan’s European specification. The 40 kWh battery supports DC charging at up to 80 kW, while the 52 kWh model increases the maximum to 100 kW.
Nissan estimates a 15-to-80 percent DC charge at around 30 minutes for either version when connected to a suitable charger and when charging conditions allow the battery to accept its maximum rate.
For AC charging, Nissan quotes approximately 3 hours 40 minutes from 10 to 100 percent for the 40 kWh battery at 11 kW. The 52 kWh version takes approximately 4 hours 45 minutes under the same conditions.
An imported Micra in Dubai should still be physically tested on the charging equipment the owner expects to use. Charger compatibility and warranty support should never be assumed solely from a European specification sheet.
Size and Practicality
The new Micra remains a genuinely compact hatchback. Nissan lists an overall length of 3,974 mm, a width of 1,774 mm excluding mirrors and a height of approximately 1,498 mm. The wheelbase measures 2,541 mm.
Luggage capacity is 326 litres with the rear seats in use and up to 1,106 litres when they are folded. That makes the Micra more useful than its exterior dimensions might suggest, although it remains primarily a small city-focused car rather than a family SUV.
Both versions use 18-inch wheels in the current UK range. The official specification also lists a strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension.
Nissan Micra 2025 Price
There is no official Nissan UAE retail price for the new electric Micra in the current Nissan Middle East range.
For source-market context, Nissan currently advertises the Micra in the UK from £21,495 for the 40 kWh Engage after the applicable UK Electric Car Grant. That figure is a UK market price and should not be converted into an assumed official Dubai price.
An imported Micra advertised in the UAE can therefore be priced differently according to source country, shipping costs, specification, registration status, warranty and seller margin.
Buyers comparing a Nissan for Sale in Dubai should not treat an imported Micra in the same way as a locally supplied Patrol, Kicks, X-Trail or Altima. The ownership and support structure may be different even though the badge is the same.
What Should You Check Before Buying an Imported Micra?
Start with the VIN and confirm the vehicle’s original market. Ask for the original specification sheet rather than relying only on the features shown in the listing.
Next, verify warranty coverage. Nissan’s UK documentation provides an eight-year or 100,000-mile lithium-ion battery warranty for the new Micra, but an overseas warranty should not automatically be assumed to transfer to an independently imported UAE vehicle.
AC and DC charging should both be tested before purchase. The NissanConnect account, navigation services, Google functions and software updates should also be checked because connected features can depend on country, mobile coverage and account eligibility.
Finally, confirm insurance and service support before paying a deposit. A low imported-car price becomes much less attractive if parts, warranty claims or software support are difficult to obtain locally.
Final Verdict
The 2025 Nissan Micra is a much more interesting car when its real specifications are allowed to speak for themselves. It does not need invented Dubai test figures, artificial expert scores or unsupported claims about desert durability to make a strong case.
The 40 kWh version offers 90 kW of power and up to 196 miles of WLTP range, while the 52 kWh model raises output to 110 kW and range to as much as 257 miles. Both remain compact, front-wheel-drive electric hatchbacks with practical charging capability and useful everyday space.
For UAE buyers, the biggest question is currently not performance. It is whether the individual car has the right specification, charging compatibility, insurance, warranty and service support for life in Dubai. Until Nissan adds the Micra to its official Middle East range, every imported example should be assessed on those points individually.
