Datsun is going to launch the GO and GO+ CVT in India in the coming days. It will offer the CVT gearbox on two of the top-spec trims, for both the cars.
Datsun GO and GO+ will get new CVT gearboxes, making them the most affordable to get one. The launch of the same is scheduled to happen probably next week, but we have already driven both of them.
A fresh report suggests that the Datsun GO CVT and GO+ CVT will come on the top-end two variants, (T) and T(O). Both the variants differ from each other, just on the basis of a couple of features.
Also, both the cars are going to get a 9 BHP rise in power. It currently uses a 1.2 Litre three-cylinder petrol engine, that produces 75 BHP and 104 Nm of peak torque. As of now, there’s only a 5-speed manual gearbox on offer.

As of now, the T variant goes for Rs 4.83 Lakhs and the T(O) variant goes for Rs 5.17 Lakhs on the GO. For the GO+, the T variant is priced at Rs 5.67 Lakhs and T(O) goes for Rs 5.94 Lakhs (all prices ex-showroom).
The top-end T(O) comes with a touchscreen infotainment system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, LED DRLs, 14-inch alloy wheels, rear parking sensors, Vehicle Stability Control, Dual Front airbags, ABS with EBD and Front and rear window buttons.
The T variant just misses out on the LED DRLs and the alloy wheels but gets the rest of them. Meanwhile, the new CVT variants just get a new gearbox and nothing else. Datsun also offers a Sport mode on the gearbox.
