Fuel economy is from Japan’s official tests and is usually better than you’ll see on UK roads. MLIT doesn’t list power or torque.

6AA-E13

Listed 2021–2026. The 6AA prefix (our explanation, not MLIT’s) means hybrid passenger car certified to Japan’s 2018 emissions rules, 75% below their limits. Check 6AA-E13 against ULEZ and clean air zones.

Each row is one version as MLIT lists it. A version can appear twice when MLIT gave figures on two tests that year. Low-emission stars and trim names aren’t shown. MLIT gives fuel economy in km/L; the mpg figures are our conversion to UK gallons. Japanese tests are gentler than real UK driving, so expect less.

Check an E13 before you buy

Make sure the car is what the advert says: the chassis number on the V5C should start E13-, and the engine and gearbox should match one of the versions above. Our free check reads the UK MOT history and compares it with the chassis code.

Questions

What engine does the E13 have?

MLIT lists the Nissan Note E13 with HR12-EM47 1,198 cc petrol.

What fuel economy does the E13 get?

Officially between 27.6 and 38.2 km/L (about 78–108 mpg), depending on the version, on Japan’s own tests. Real-world figures are usually lower, especially against the older 10-15 mode test.

How heavy is the E13?

Between 1,190 and 1,230 kg kerb weight, depending on the version.

Is 6AA-E13 the same as E13?

Yes. 6AA-E13 is the full model type: the letters before the hyphen are Japan’s emissions code, which changed as the rules were tightened, and E13 is the model code. The chassis number starts with E13-.

About these figures

The model types, engine codes, capacities, gearboxes, drive, weights, seats and km/L figures are copied from MLIT’s yearly lists of cars on sale in Japan each March, so “listed” years are list years, not exact production dates. The English model names, mpg conversions, emissions code explanations and chassis number matching are ours. Lists before 2013 were printed as PDFs that we read by machine; where an older list gives an engine code that doesn’t match its capacity, we’ve used the figure the same model type has in other years. Check anything that matters against the car’s own papers. Spotted a mistake? Email [email protected]. All Nissan model codes.
