The 1600 saloon, a compact four-door sedan, built upon the success of its predecessor, the Datsun 1000, and offered a larger engine and a more spacious interior. It was designed to appeal to a wider audience, offering both a comfortable ride and a level of performance that was uncommon in its class at the time. The 1600 was powered by a 1.6-liter inline-four engine, capable of producing around 85 horsepower, making it a lively car for its size. The car was known for its reliable engine and straightforward design, contributing to its popularity in both domestic and international markets.

The car's front grille now featured a more prominent Datsun badge and horizontal chrome slats, giving it a more sophisticated look. Inside, the dashboard was updated with new instruments and switchgear, while the upholstery was upgraded to a more luxurious feel. These improvements, coupled with the car's already robust reputation for reliability and practicality, helped to solidify its position as a strong contender in the small car market. The 1969 Datsun 1600 Saloon was a car that appealed to a wide range of buyers, offering a blend of comfort, affordability, and practicality that was hard to match at the time.
