Overall rating 4.5/5Launched in the UK in 2014, the Nissan Pulsar was designed to offer families a spacious alternative to smaller hatchbacks. It features outstanding rear-seat legroom, a decent boot and low running costs, appealing to drivers seeking a no-nonsense, good value car. Compared to rivals like the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf, the Pulsar stands out for its rear legroom and affordable running costs. Most cars come well equipped with trim levels such as Acenta and Tekna offering features from air con and Bluetooth to reversing cameras and dual-zone climate control. The cabin is simple and easy to use, though plastics feel cheap and the infotainment system is basic. Engine options include a frugal 1.5 dCi diesel and a smooth 1.2 DIG-T petrol. Reliability is below average with minor electrical issues, but the Pulsar remains simple to drive, easy to park, and gentle on the wallet.
