Advanced EV Concept to Debut at Japan Mobility Show
Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. has taken a bold step into the future of premium mobility with the unveiling of the Nissan Hyper Tourer, the third installment in its series of advanced electric vehicle (EV) concepts. This cutting-edge concept will make its debut at the Japan Mobility Show, commencing on October 25, where it will be showcased in a physical form.
Enhancing Social Bonds through Fine Driving Experiences
The Nissan Hyper Tourer is more than just an EV; it’s a vision of how mobility can enrich human connections. Designed with a focus on nurturing and strengthening the bond between people as they journey together, the Hyper Tourer concept caters to those who savor life’s finer experiences and relish the company of friends and colleagues, be it on a leisurely road trip or a business venture.
Omotenashi Meets Advanced Technology
Nissan has seamlessly combined the spirit of “omotenashi,” which embodies the essence of Japanese hospitality, with a plethora of advanced technologies. The concept integrates autonomous driving, making travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Furthermore, it boasts V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) functionality and a high-capacity battery, enabling it to supply electricity to homes, stores, and offices during travel or various business occasions.
Aesthetically Pleasing and Aerodynamic Design
The exterior design is a testament to traditional Japanese beauty, featuring smooth body panels and sharp character lines. These elements harmonise with the surrounding landscape, while diagonal lines running from the front to the rear fender enhance aerodynamic performance, creating a smooth driving experience. The vehicle’s white waistline doubles as a headlight and signature lamp, and kumiko-patterned wheels add a touch of sophistication.
Innovative Interior and Cutting-Edge Technology
The spacious interior is a result of Nissan’s EV Technology Vision, which consolidates compact components and high-energy density all-solid-state batteries, ensuring an ultra-low center of gravity. This, combined with the advanced e-4ORCE all-wheel control system, delivers smooth acceleration and deceleration. The interior features traditional Japanese kumiko and koushi patterns, creating a luxurious ambiance. A flat LED panel in the floor displays imagery of a riverbed and the sky, fusing digital and natural elements for a serene atmosphere.
Ultimate Comfort and Connectivity
Fully autonomous driving takes the concept of travel to the next level. Front seats can swivel 360 degrees, allowing passengers to engage in face-to-face conversations. Rear-seat passengers can use a wearable display to access navigation and audio controls, fostering a sense of unity among all occupants. An innovative AI system monitors passengers’ biometric signs and adjusts the environment, such as music and lighting, to suit their mood.
With the Nissan Hyper Tourer concept, Nissan reimagines the group road trip by blending the comfort of a luxurious living room with the convenience of a passenger van, all wrapped in a stylish and futuristic package.
