Nissan Motor Company has unveiled an original personal city electro vehicle – the Land Glider Concept. It is characterized by the ability to lean in corners, combined with a 1+1 seating layout. It has width of just 1.1 meters. The powertrain adopts 2 electric motors.
“The exterior incorporates a soft, sleek-looking body that appears to be protected by a special armor,” explains Takashi Nakajima, Nissan’s Project Design Director. “And while it is very mechanical in its nature, the four-wheeler boasts a dynamic body design that almost seems alive. As part of Nissan’s expanding zero emission family, the Nissan Land Glider Concept exudes a clean, friendly attitude.”
Technical Specifications
- Length: 3,100 mm;
- Width: 1,100 mm;
- Height: 1,415 mm;
- Wheelbase: 2,180 mm;
- Seating Capacity: 2 seats.
The Nissan Land Glider Concept is targeted at inhabitants of the city of all generations. It is a serious auto statement of the future era of mobility that Nissan intends to lead.
To ensure the high level of safety whilst driving, engineers have fitted a car-robotics style accident avoidance system in which sensors mounted in the body detect other vehicles in the same way as fish swim in schools without colliding. This system directs the vehicle’s path away from any obstacles.
In creating the Nissan Land Glider concept, designers of Nissan Motor Company have conceived an absolutely new form of personal zero emission mobility that combines clever, new driving experiences, all-in-one compact, 4-wheeled package.
