WHY WE BOUGHT A JDM IMPORT NISSAN FIGARO BUYERS GUIDE

EV Channels Review

The Late Brake Show delves into the charming Nissan Figaro, a JDM import with a unique retro aesthetic. While the car's design, particularly its interior, is universally praised by the hosts, its original 987cc turbocharged engine is deemed a significant letdown due to its sluggish performance and complexity. The video serves as a comprehensive buyer's guide, highlighting common rust issues, the scarcity of trim parts, and the value of period accessories. A major focus is the car's future, with the hosts exploring the viability and process of an EV conversion with Zero EV. Despite the drivetrain's shortcomings, the Figaro's overall appeal and the potential for an electric future are presented as compelling reasons for its ownership.
