The Nissan Pao, first announced at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 1987, is a retro-styled automobile from Nissan Motors. It was available as a three-door hatchback with or without a textile sun roof ("canvas-top"). The Pao was one of three fashionable spinoffs of the K10 Micra — the Figaro and Be-1 being the other two. Like the Figaro, the Pao was sold without the Nissan name and only by reservation from January 15 through April 14, 1989; orders were served according to their date of placing.
The engine was the 1.0 L (987 cc) MA10S, coupled with a 3-speed automatic transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine produced 52 PS (51 hp/38 kW) at 6000 rpm and 76 N·m (56 ft·lbf) at 3600 rpm.
It was designed as a fashionable city car in the mold of the Figaro, requiring just 4.4 m (14.4 ft) to turn and delivering up to 43 mpg (5.5 L/100 km) in the city and 69 mpg (3.4 L/100 km) at a steady 60 km/h (37 mph).
The chassis included rack and pinion steering, independent suspension with struts in front and 4-links and coil springs in back.
