Nissan apparently intends to gain a foothold in the electric car market. In addition to the Ariya crossover, which is due to go on sale soon, and the Leaf hatchback, the Japanese manufacturer is working with Mitsubishi to develop a completely new electric model. Moreover, it is likely to be budgetary.
Actual Nissan Leaf
This is indicated by the disclosed characteristics of the Japanese novelty. It is reported that the length of the Nissan electric car reaches 3395 mm, width - 1475 mm, height - 1655 mm. The Japanese media have suggested that this model will cost about 1.3 million rubles (in terms of the current exchange rate). This price is really low for electric cars.
It is stated that the production of the Japanese novelty will start next year. According to rumors, the assembly of the car will begin in the first months of 2022. Accordingly, her debut should take place closer to spring. Nissan officials have pledged that the development of the electric car will demonstrate rapid acceleration from a standstill and provide smooth handling. In addition, it is known that along with the new product they will offer driving assistance technologies.
Electrocross Ariya
It is expected that the car will be equipped with a compact 20 kWh battery. This battery can be recharged from the home power outlet. Moreover, if necessary, the battery can power external sources. The manufacturer did not disclose any specific data on the technical part of the Japanese novelty. Most likely, the car will be built on the basis of the same platform as the Ariya electric crossover. Accordingly, the electric car will be front-wheel drive. However, low-power engines will be prepared for this novelty in order to keep prices at the declared level.
