Concept car
The Nissan Ariya concept car was presented on 24 October 2019 at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show.[5] It is a 100% electric coupe SUV concept car of 4.6 m (15 ft), which places it between the Qashqai and X-Trail in the range of the Japanese manufacturer. The concept car was fitted with 21 inch rims, LED headlamps and an illuminated logo on its grille,[6] which itself takes the form of a large "V" characteristic of Nissan design. Inside, the dashboard is equipped with two 12.3 inch screens assembled to form a large screen, from which ProPilot 2.0 autonomous driving is controlled. The manufacturer has not distributed information on the capacity of the battery to be used in the production Ariya, but indicated that it will be recharged by direct current (DC) compatible with standard CHAdeMO.[7] It will go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 5.1 seconds.[8]
Production
Slated to hit the market in 2021 at a starting price of $40,000, the Ariya production version was unveiled in July 2020.[4][8]
