FactThe second-generation Tiida hatchback was never sold in Japan, the model it was born to replace.
The second generation, C12 series of the Nissan Tiida was unveiled in April 2011 at the Shanghai Auto Show, with sales in China commencing in June 2011. It is available only as a five-door hatchback and is notably not sold in Japan, where the C11 Tiida sedan was instead replaced by the Nissan Almera/Latio/Sunny/Versa (N17) and the Nissan Pulsar/Sentra/Sylphy (B17). The C12 Tiida is heavily related to the Sylphy B17: both base their construction on the Nissan V platform and share substantial mechanicals, and the Thai-manufactured versions even share the Sylphy B17's interior, while the original Chinese and Taiwanese models feature a distinctive design. Instead of being sized and marketed as both a subcompact or a compact car depending on the country, the second-generation Tiida was marketed as a C-segment hatchback worldwide.

Owning one
An estimate, for the 1.5 K9K764 trim: fuel on its EPA figure and a dated national price, upkeep on a per-mile average for the kind of car it is.

The second-generation Tiida hatchback was never sold in Japan, the model it was born to replace.

Nissan forced the Tiida name onto every market including Australia, which fought to keep Pulsar and won it back for the next generation.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.

Japan was a minor market for the Swift: when it passed 2 million sales in 2011, about 39% were in India and 27% in Europe, against roughly 15% at home.

To adapt the Horizon for America, Chrysler bought nearly 100 Volkswagen Rabbits purely to reverse engineer them.

The Mk3 Focus RS's AWD system could send 100 percent of engine power to the rear wheels alone — built not in Ford's home country, but at the Saarlouis plant in Germany.

In June 2003, a Mégane II became the subject of the first ever live televised crash test with a real human driver at the wheel instead of a dummy — filmed by Top Gear.

This Wagon R redesigned its rear doors specifically to kill off the D-pillar — bigger doors with built-in quarter glass solved what earlier generations needed a whole extra pillar for.

The BX was the UK's best-selling diesel car for four years from 1987, and 2,315,739 were built in all.

Six months before Suzuki retired the Fronte name for good, the CN11S's 796cc version was already being built in China under a completely different name: the Anchi 6330.

Built to use up Chrysler-Simca's parts bin, it took its engine and gearbox straight from the front-wheel-drive Simca 1100 but mounted them amidships instead.
