Can I buy Datsun Redi Go in 2020? The car never sells in numbers. In roads, I hardly see this car. More Nano runs than Datsun Redi Go. I am
afraid anytime this model might be discontinued, due to poor sales. How would be service and support if
production stopped for this model?
But, march month offers enticed me. I saw Nissan advertisement in Internet/Google
for Datsun cars. Upto 85000 rupees cash
benefits and 6.99 rate of interest for loans.
I am attracted by the cash benefits and rate of interest for loan.
I submitted the enquiry form in Datsun website. Later sales rep from Datsun called me and
speak with me for 10 minutes. He
concluded that nearest dealer to my residence, will call me and provide more
details.
If car’s final onroad price after discounts come to 3.5
lakhs then I will think of purchasing this car.
Will Nissan continue this car for another 5 to 10 years? Will Nissan be in business in India for next 5
to 10 years? We all know Chevrolet
story.
I can not predict now, I should not be surprised even if this model car discontinued post march when BS4 vehicles can not be sold any more in India. Right now, the offer is for BS4 vehicle.
There was a great bike called GS150R from Suzuki motor. It was not adorned by Indians. The bike sold
in few numbers. Suzuki discontinued this
bike. My friend owns this bike even
today. He rides it for commuting. For
maintaining the bike, he struggle to source spare parts. Authorized service centers of Suzuki
abandoned this bike. My friend has to
depend on roadside mechanic or private workshop to repair it.
There are cars, which still running even after their
manufacturer stopped production. Old alto, Maruthi Ritz, Chevrolet vehicles. Discontinued cars still run on roads and their
owners find clever mechanic to maintain, repair it. Chevrolet still support the
service and maintenance of their vehicles.
I am taking a risk if I am buying Datsun Redi Go in
2020. The car may be discontinued any
time due to lackluster sales.
I have a tight budget, so, I have to take risk. I will be safe if Nissan continued the sales and support of Datsun Redigo for minimum 5 years from now. My car loan EMI will be completed by the time.
Let me hope for the best.
Assume, sales, service, support, spares will be available for 5 to 10
years for Datsun Redi Go car. Even
production stopped, let me hope Nissan may continue the service support like
Chevrolet.
