Chronology
Predecessor Nissan Note (Europe)

The Nissan Micra, known in Latin America and in most of Asia as the Nissan March (マーチ Māchi?), is a supermini produced by the Japanese manufacturer Nissan since 1982.

The Nissan March was not sold in Korea, China, and Southern Asia.

In Japan, the March replaced the Japanese-market Nissan Cherry and was exclusive to Nissan Japanese dealership network Nissan Cherry Store until 1999, when the "Cherry" network was combined into Nissan Red Stage until 2003. Until Nissan began selling badge engineered superminis from other Japanese manufacturers the March was Nissan's smallest vehicle, and was not renamed and sold at other Japanese Nissan dealership networks.

The original Micra (chassis name K10) was introduced onto the Japanese market in October 1982 as a challenger to the Honda City, Daihatsu Charade, Suzuki Cultus, and Toyota Starlet. It was intended to replace the Nissan Cherry as the company's competitor in the supermini sector, as the Cherry model sold in Europe had progressively become larger with each successive generation. In Japan, it was exclusive to Nissan Cherry store locations, as the Japanese market Cherry was renamed March, benefiting from engineering contributions from Nissan's 1966 acquisition of the Prince Motor Company, who originally developed the outgoing Cherry. The Micra had particularly low fuel consumption made possible by a specially developed engine only used in the Micra, an uncommonly high gearing, and a particularly low weight: only 630 kg (1,390 lb) in early European trim. The low weight target necessitated a minimum of insulation, meaning that early Micras were quite loud.
