The 1991 Nissan Figaro is a small, retro-styled car that was
produced by Nissan as part of a limited-run special project. It was
originally intended to be a niche vehicle for the Japanese market,
but it gained a cult following and became a beloved classic in
various regions around the world.
Here are some key details about the Nissan Figaro:
Design & Styling:
Retro Appeal: The Figaro's design was heavily inspired by 1950s and
1960s European cars, particularly the Fiat 500 and the Mini Cooper,
giving it a charming, vintage appearance.
Convertible Roof: The Figaro came with a retractable soft-top,
making it a semi-convertible, which added to its appeal as a fun,
summer-oriented car.
Compact Size: Its small footprint (around 3.3 meters in length)
made it perfect for navigating tight urban environments.
Engine & Performance:
Engine: The Figaro was powered by a 1.0-liter turbocharged
inline-four engine that produced around 75 horsepower, paired with
a 3-speed automatic transmission.
Front-Wheel Drive: It was front-wheel-drive, which helped with its
agility and handling, especially in urban settings.
Production & Rarity:
Limited Production: Only 20,000 units of the Figaro were produced,
and all were sold in Japan. This makes it a relatively rare car,
though many have been imported to other countries.
Color Variants: The Figaro was available in four distinct colors:
Emerald Green, Pale Aqua, Topaz Mist, and Lapis Grey.
Interior:
Retro Interior: The interior continued the vintage theme, with
leather upholstery, a classic-style dashboard, and an elegant
design.
Compact & Cozy: The cabin is small, suitable for two adults
comfortably, with room for two small passengers in the back
seats.
Legacy:
The Nissan Figaro has earned a reputation as a fun, quirky, and
collectible car. Its distinctive design, limited production, and
unique charm make it highly sought after among car enthusiasts and
collectors, especially those who appreciate the retro
aesthetic.
The odometer is in kilometers and is currently at 55, 861km, which
is equal to approximately 34,710 miles.
