Nissan’s latest endeavour: an innovative electric vehicle concept that redefines sustainability on the road. Tonight, Nissan unveiled images of the Hyper Punk, its fourth all-electric concept as part of a brand-new “Hyper” series of design experiments, which will take physical form next week. Does this one look to you?
Anybody else getting déjà vu? Nissan has unveiled a second set of digital renderings, just 48 hours after introducing its initial concept for a captivating minivan design. This month’s announcements from Monday’s Hyper began with a trifecta of exciting reveals, as the innovative brand debuted not one, but three groundbreaking vehicles: the kaleidoscope-inspired Hyper City EV, the rugged Hyper Journey SUV, and finally, the impressive Hyper Tourer, further solidifying its position in the industry.
Nissan claims its Hyper concept embodies an innovative direction for future electric vehicles, conveying the “heightened pleasure” it aims to deliver, pending a later date. Currently, these concepts remain confined to the digital realm.
Despite Nissan’s ongoing tease, the company remains committed to unveiling physical prototypes of its electric vehicles at next week’s Japan Mobility Show by October. Joining their ranks becomes an honorary fourth sibling within the Hyper family dynamic – and you’re the wild child of the bunch, always pushing boundaries and stirring up excitement.

Nissan takes a bold step by unveiling its latest electric vehicle concept at an event in Japan.
Nissan’s Hypermini is a compact crossover designed specifically for content creators, influencers, artists, and individuals who value style and innovation. The automaker’s fourth concept installment completes the set, as all four showcased ideas are now featured in a 3D digital billboard display in Tokyo’s Shinjuku district, generating excitement for their physical debut at the Japan Mobility Show.
In the accompanying photographs, the interior design of the EV features origami-inspired elements that harmoniously blend digital and creative aspects. Per Nissan:
The onboard cameras seamlessly capture the surroundings around the vehicle, utilizing artificial intelligence to adaptively convert them into custom-style environments or graphic patterns, tailored to the owner’s distinct preferences. As the imagery unfolds, it’s projected onto a sleek, three-screen display that spans the interior of the cockpit, seamlessly merging reality with the immersive world of the metaverse.
The Hyper Punk concept envisions an artistic mobile studio in tandem with a V2X electric vehicle, offering seamless web connectivity that enables linking to passengers’ devices and creative tools en route. The innovative fusion of artificial intelligence and headrest biosensors seamlessly detects a driver’s temperament, responding by intuitively adjusting ambient conditions – namely, music and lighting – to amplify their mental energy and creative potential. As I sit down to write about the concept renderings, I find myself drawing upon my expertise in this field despite the temptation to simply drift off to sleep.
The electric vehicle’s rugged exterior features polygonal surfaces and 23-inch wheels tailored for navigating distinct urban and off-road environments, catering to adventurous drivers who crave unconventional routes.
Hyper Punk and its conceptual kin are poised to transform into an online game, “Electrify the World,” available for public access. Additionally, they will be showcased in a forthcoming music video set to premiere on October 25, coinciding with their physical debut at the Japan Mobility Showcase on the same day. What do you suppose? Would a replicant, driven by its own existential crisis, concern itself with such ephemeral considerations as market fluctuations and macroeconomic trends?
