The test drive this time was the latest middle size by a brand that worked on battery EV (BEV) ahead of time.crossover.. Finally, it looks like the mass production version is ready.
Let’s review a little.thisAriateeth,VolkswagenID.4 andFord・Mustang・ Mach E,Tesla・ It can be said that Nissan is turning to a category such as Model Y where each manufacturer releases a new model.
The British editorial department completed a test drive on the prototype a few months ago, but this time it will be delivered in the latter half of 2022, the completed version of the European specification. I’m sure some readers have already ordered it, but I’ll mention earlier that it’s worth the wait for a few more months.
For Nissan, Dualis launched in 2007 pioneered the crossover market, and in 2010LeafClaims to have taken the lead in the BEV market as a family car. The model that combines the two is probably Aria.
Certainly, it can be said that it skillfully grasped the needs of users. However, there is no doubt that this launch was delayed.
Other manufacturers have added BEV crossovers to their lineup before the UK selling price was set.Not very aggressiveToyotaEven so, the move in the European market was fast. As a result, I think Nissan needs to get more attention than ever before.

The operation panel of the air conditioner embedded in the dashboard glows gently. The center console can slide back and forth, making it easy to move inside the car. Accessory cases are also provided everywhere, giving consideration to convenience. It may be the best in this class.
The gently sloping roof sacrifices some rear visibility, but the interior space is bright and airy thanks to the large side glass. There is room around the front and rear seats. However, under the front seat, there is no space for the person’s foot in the rear seat to dive.
The more you observe the standard equipment, the materials used for the interior, and the tailoring, the more luxurious it feels for a BEV of around £ 45,000 (regarding 7.5 million yen). When it comes to top grades that exceed £ 50,000, it doesn’t have that much advantage.
