Nissan's NP 200 to lead new generation budget cars

The reincarnated Mini Cooper owned by BMW was commercial and successful around the world; but on the contrary, the Beetle was not very successful because of its soft and so-called girly look. Fiat has also released a retro version of its legendary small car, the Fiat 500.

In this part of the world, the quintessential small cars were the Nissan 1400 and the Volkswagen Citi Golf. The Nissan 1400 was favourite with small businesses because most Batswana could afford it. The two fall in the category of budget cars. Driving schools around the country liked the 1400 for its compact size.
