SummaryReviewers and owners praise the low price, fuel economy of about 16 to 19 km/L, the large boot and cheap, easily available parts. They criticise the modest engine performance, limited rear seat space, basic features on lower trims and below-average sound insulation.Reviewers praise the Nissan Sunny for its sharp styling, impressive fuel economy, smooth CVT transmission, and punchy 1.6-liter engine relative to its budget segment. Minor criticisms center on hard interior plastics, moderate high-speed wind noise, and slightly firm rear seating.
