Indian Automotive Industry is making a transition from the BS4 to a far more stringent BS6 Emission Norms. Automotive companies in India had just 3 years to prepare themselves for the new BS6 era. Most of the automotive brand's have already launched BS6 compliant vehicles in the Indian market with the exception of Datsun. Today, Datsun silently listed the BS6 versions of Go and Go+ on its official website in India. The listing covers everything about the vehicles like the features, variants and the specifications. Japanese Automaker hasn’t revealed the prices for their cars on the official website so far. Go and Go + will be sold in five variants - D, A, A (O), T and T (O) in the Indian market.
The official launch is expected to take place once the lockdown ends. Datsun redi-Go launch is expected in the coming days with the teaser images already revealed online.
The Datsun Go & Go Plus share the same platform, components and mechanical parts. The difference between the models lies in the dimensions.

Wheelbase and ground clearance is the same for both the models at 2,450 mm and 180 mm respectively.
