Nissan yesterday unveiled the first 21st Century interpretation of its iconic Datsun brand. Called Datsun GO after the DAT-GO car of 1914, it will go on sale in India early next year at under INR400,000 (approx. $7,000).

The Nissan Datsun GO is a 5-door hatchback with seating for 5, as well as a 1.2L engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. It stands 3,785 mm long (on a 2,450 mm wheelbase), 1,635 mm wide, and 1,485 mm tall.

The Datsun GO will be the first of several Datsun models that will be launched later in 2014 in Indonesia, Russia, and South Africa.
