As part of its ambition to make Europe 100% electric by 2030, Nissan has unveiled a cutting-edge concept for a sporty city electric vehicle, offering a glimpse into the manufacturer’s forthcoming electrified lineup.
Nissan has announced its intention to discontinue production of internal combustion engine vehicles and transition entirely to electric models by 2030, marking a significant step towards a more sustainable future in the automotive industry.
Electric vehicles are the definitive solution for sustainable mobility. More than one million customers have embarked on the Nissan electric vehicle experience, with no signs of slowing down, according to Nissan’s President and Chief Executive Officer Makoto Uchida.
Nissan has achieved a milestone of selling one million units of its electric vehicles (EVs) globally as of July, more than 10 years after introducing its pioneering model, the LEAF.
Although Nissan was a pioneering force in the electric vehicle (EV) industry with the release of the LEAF hatchback in 2010, the company has struggled to keep pace as more advanced and competitive EVs, such as the Tesla Model 3, have entered the market.
The Japanese automaker has introduced its second global electric vehicle, the Ariya all-electric SUV, with deliveries commencing at the end of last year.
Nissan has revealed the ‘Idea 20-23’, a cutting-edge, sporty urban electric vehicle that marks a significant step forward in its transition to an all-electric future strategy.
Introducing Nissan’s ‘City EV Sport’ concept: A bold, futuristic vision for the urban jungle
To commemorate the twentieth anniversary of its Design Studio in Paddington, London, Nissan unveiled a sporty urban electric vehicle designed to be enjoyable to drive in everyday metropolitan conditions.
The electric hatchback boasts a range of efficiency-enhancing design features, including an aggressive front apron spoiler, integrated roof air intake, prominent rear spoiler, flared wheel arches, large air intakes, side sills, and more.
The vehicle also features cutting-edge design elements, including circular LED headlamps at both the front and rear, as well as innovative butterfly doors.
A spyshot of a performance-enhanced Ariya EV has surfaced, featuring several Nismo-inspired design cues, hinting at Nissan’s increased focus on electric vehicles in the coming years?
Nissan can be celebrating the thirty fifth anniversary of its Technical Centre Europe (R&D facility), the place the UK’s newest real-world autonomous driving research, evolvAD, is going down.
The automotive company is committing more than €40 million ($42.4 million) towards upgrading these facilities, a key investment in its ongoing transformation process.
All-electric future
Below lies Nissan’s ambition for 2030: the company plans to introduce a fleet of 19 all-electric vehicles by that date. The corporation anticipates introducing cobalt-free technology to significantly reduce battery costs by approximately 65% by the year 2028.
By then, Nissan plans to introduce solid-state batteries. Nissan plans to expand its electric vehicle offerings across various segments with the introduction of its newly developed batteries, which promise enhanced dynamic efficiency.
Nissan asserts that its forthcoming solid-state battery technology will achieve a significant reduction of approximately one-third in charging cycles, accompanied by a notable decrease in battery pack costs to around $75 per kilowatt-hour.
Confirmation has been made of two new electric vehicles (EVs) destined for European markets, alongside a debutant compact entry-level EV poised to supplant the iconic Nissan Micra. Nissan’s Sunderland plant is uniquely poised to produce an opposite electric vehicle (EV), a move that serves as a blueprint for the industry’s future direction in the automotive sector.
Last month, Nissan unveiled three new all-electric models for US dealerships, featuring a LEAF successor and an efficiency sedan that will replace the Maxima.
