2015 Datsun mi-DO hatchback first view

As well as the recently revealed on-DO saloon, Datsun's Russian product range is also going to include the closely related mi-DO hatchback.

Both models share the same 2,476 mm (8' 1”) wheelbase, however the new five-door version – ambitiously described by Datsun as sporty, bold and cool – is 387 mm (1' 3”) shorter overall.

Similarly, the mi-DO's 1.6 litre 8-valve engine is carried over from the on-DO. Developing a reasonable 85 bhp (64 kW / 87 PS), it comes with a five-speed manual gearbox but a four-speed automatic is on the options list.

Standard equipment is set to include heated seats, anti-lock brakes and a couple of airbags. Deliveries of the mi-DO will begin early next year.
