As Nissan Micra will go full electric soon, Nissan is paying tribute to the Micra hatchback with a special project. Named the Micra 350SR, this one-off build celebrates 23 years of the model with a mid-engine V6 setup. It mixes classic design of the third-generation Micra with modern features, reminding fans of the Micra’s legacy as it prepares to enter a new electric era.
The Micra 350SR retains its original body shape but gets some fresh updates. It features rounded LED headlights, similar to the upcoming electric Micra. A silver-and-blue colour scheme and the '=III 23' badge add to its unique look. New 18-inch RAYS wheels complete the sporty styling while keeping the retro charm alive.

Inside, the cabin looks familiar but has several upgrades. Racing seats with harnesses and a 9.0-inch touchscreen bring it up to modern standards. The infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A high-quality sound system has also been added, although the engine note might grab more attention.
The Micra 350SR runs on a 3.5-litre V-6 engine from the Murano. Performance has been improved with parts like 350Z headers, a tuned ECU, high-lift camshafts, and a NISMO air intake. With 300bhp and a weight of just 1,200 kg, this hatchback offers quick acceleration and sharp handling.
