KUALA LUMPUR: Nissan has introduced an all-new A-segment electric city car, the PIXO, for the European market. The latest Nissan EV is developed under the Nissan-Renault Alliance, designed by Nissan and produced at Renault’s Novo Mesto manufacturing facility in Slovenia.

• The Nissan PIXO is powered by a front-mounted electric motor that generates a maximum power of 82 hp. 
• Feeding the motor is a 27.5kWh LFP battery,  the first LFP battery fitted to a Nissan model in Europe, which delivers a WLTP-rated driving range of up to 259 km. It supports  11kW AC charging and 50 kW DC rapid charging; the latter offers 15-80 per cent SoC in around 28 minutes.

Massimiliano Messina, Chairperson, Nissan AMIEO, said, "The future of electric mobility is about smarter vehicles that fit naturally into people's lives. PIXO was designed specifically for Europe, for our cities — giving customers everything they need from an EV, without unnecessary complexity."

"As fuel costs rise, the case for switching to electrified vehicles only grows stronger. Nissan is right at the heart of that shift: through our rapidly expanding EV line-up and our highly efficient e‑POWER hybrid technology, we're delivering solutions that lower running costs without compromising convenience."

Customer deliveries of the all-new Nissan PIXO are scheduled to begin in early 2027 in Europe.
