The 30-year old Nissan Figaro was the real hype when it was introduced to the world back in 1989. Although it came with the simplest of designs and specifications, it caught many eyes because of an elegant look. Nissan Figaro debuted at the 28th Tokyo Motor Show in 1989 and it was a hit. While the design of the car was so simple that anybody could have made it, people were able to appreciate the idea behind the making of this car.
It was released for sales in the second month of 1991 and the demand for it touched the skies. To come up with a fair way to sell the cars, Nissan launched a lottery system. In the first instalment, 7870 Figaro cars were sold followed by two instalments of 5960 which came to a total of 19640. It has been 3 decades since it has been in the market and it hasn’t lost its charismatic elegance till date.
The car has two doors and two seats and is made to look cute because of its size which is small. Not only that, it has a charisma that affects the driver, the one in the passenger seats, and the people looking at it in a good way. It beat all the other cars in competition with it when it was released in total specifications and look.
If you are going through a way where there is traffic, because of its preferably small size and the ability to cruise, you will leave everyone else behind.
