FactNear the end of its run, Nissan quietly built Russian-market Notes without the seatbelt pretensioners still listed on the contract — buyers only discovered it was missing when they pulled the seats out.
After poor sales of the Almera Tino, which sold 200,000 cars in seven years against 1,400,000 for its main rival the Renault Scénic, Nissan began development of what would become the Note in summer 2002. The Nissan Tone concept was unveiled at the 2004 Paris Motor Show, and Nissan's product manager said the Note was meant to be sold for under 13,000 euros. Production began in December 2004 at Oppama, Japan, and at Sunderland in the United Kingdom, on the Nissan B platform related to the Nissan Livina, AD/Wingroad and Tiida/Latio/Versa. The European model was unveiled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, and the European second facelift models went on sale in late 2010 as 2011 model year vehicles with a choice of a 1.5-litre dCi turbo diesel, a 1.4-litre petrol and a 1.6-litre petrol.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.
