FAQs: Everything You Want to Know About the Nissan Note
We think so! The Nissan Note consistently ranks as one of the best-value compact cars on the market. Drivers love it for its fuel efficiency, low running costs, roomy interior, and easy handling. Whether you choose the Note e-Power, hybrid, or other models, it’s a reliable, well-built car that punches well above its size.
The Nissan Note Hybrid uses a traditional hybrid setup (engine + electric motor).
The Nissan Note e-Power is a little smarter – the petrol engine charges the battery, and the electric motor actually powers the wheels. This gives you EV-like smoothness without needing to plug in.
Both are fuel-efficient, quiet and great for everyday driving – it just depends how “techy” you want to go.
Very. The Note is incredibly fuel-efficient and cheap to run, especially the hybrid and e-Power versions. Think fewer fuel-station visits and more money staying in your wallet. A win for fuel economy!
While you can find a manual transmission note, they’re pretty rare these days. Most NZ Nissan Note’s are automatic. Easy, smooth, and perfect for city driving (and anyone who refuses to deal with a clutch ever again).
Depending on stock availability, you could drive a Nissan Note from just $48 per week with no deposit – subject to finance approval. Weekly payments may vary depending on the model, year, and your finance profile, plus other T&Cs apply. Learn more about finance here.
Totally. The Note is compact on the outside but surprisingly roomy inside – one of its best features. You’ll have plenty of boot space (especially with the rear seats folded down) for groceries, kids, gear, and your questionable weekend purchases.
Yes – depending on the model year, Notes typically include features like stability control, multiple airbags, reversing cameras, lane assist, and more. If you want the exact safety list for a specific vehicle, just ask, or come take it for a spin.
