The Nissan Note Black Edition is now on sale in the UK priced from £14,415.
That's £3420 more than the entry level model, but the Black Edition gains styling flourishes and additional extras.
As standard the car's door mirrors, door handles and pillars are finished in black gloss. The Black Edition also gets a black finish on the car’s boot spoiler, and 16in black-finished alloy wheels too.
Interior upgrades are, as you might expect, gloss black trim pieces on the dashboard and gear stick, door handles, and a black headliner.
Nissan has also added electric rear windows to the Note Black Edition, although Nissan’s NissanConnect system remains an optional extra. The Black Edition is based on the mid-range Acenta trim, and so shares its standard equipment level with the latter.
It’s available with the same two engines offered in the Note: the 1.2-litre DiG-S petrol and 1.5 dCi diesel unit, both in two states of tune. The punchier of the two petrol engines is also available with a CVT transmission.
The sporty appearance of the car is as far as it goes, though; there are no mechanical upgrades on the limited edition Note, and Nissan still insists that the Note Nismo will not be coming to countries outside of its native Japanese market.
Sources suggest that the Black Edition will be a Europe-only special.

The shame of it is the last Note, despite its average demographic, was actually a cracking little car which really was fun to punt along.
