Among its stand out features are its "face" dominated by Datsun's confident "D-Cut" grille and which, in turn, is flanked by dramatically elongated projector headlamps that stretch virtually from grille to fender to create a look that differentiates sedan and hatchback at a glance

Although sharing the same wheelbase and front-wheel drive chassis layout as Datsun on-DO, Datsun mi-DO is shorter overall to emphasize its driving dynamics

Both cars sit on a 2,476mm wheelbase, are 1,500mm tall and 1,700mm wide, but the new Datsun mi-DO is 3,950mm long compared to the Datsun on-DO at 4,337mm

Powering the Datsun mi-do is Datsun's 1.6-liter 8V engine generating 88PS of peak power

Standard equipment will include a winter pack with heated seats and door mirrors while special attention has been paid to ensure road, engine and wind noise is kept to a minimum

Comfort and safety have been priorities. Every version will have a driver and passenger airbag as well as ABS

The names Datsun on-DO and Datsun mi-DO reflect the cars' international heritage, encompassing Japanese, English and Russian themes. DO is a Japanese word that means "moving" and also refers to a "way" of doing things

Boot space of the Datsun mi-DO can be further extended by folding the rear seats
