The Japanese Built Tiida comes with a relatively weak 1.8 litre engine putting out 93kW of power and 174Nm of troque. Unfortunately, the vehicle is still equiped with a 4-speed automatic transmission (A/T), or for the adventurous female, there is always the 6-speed manual.
There are four variations to the Tiida,
- The Nissan Tiida ST - $17,990 Manual Only
- The Nissan Tiida ST-L - $19,990 for the manual - $22,240 for the Auto
- The Nissan Tiida Q Hatch - $22,990 for the manual - $25,240 for the Auto
- The Nissan Tiida Ti Sedan - $25,240 Auto Only

This car isn't the best money can buy, for those who are looking at buying a similar sized car, you would do yourself a world of favours having a look at the range from Mazda, perhaps the Mazda 2 or even the Mazda 3 Neo. If you're going for the base model Tiida SL, for $20,000 you have to remember that you are in Toyota Yaris and Mazda 2 category.
Whilst the Yaris has an interior better suited to a 30 year old US Submarine, the car it self comes very well equipped, if you don't mind a little less power. Definitely check out the Mazda 3 Neo if your going to opt out for the Tiida Ti Sedan!
