Sexy Nissan concept due for Geneva
Nissan has shown the first official pictures of its electric ESFLOW concept. It will be at Geneva and promises style and performance.
Nissan will pull the wraps of an all-new, two-seat electric sports car concept, known as the ESFLOW, at next month's Geneva Motor Show.
The Japanese firm has promised that its latest creation will be just as dramatic to drive as it looks. An electric vehicle (EV) it may be, but it features rear-wheel drive and is apparently capable of hitting 62mph in less than five seconds.
Power will be channelled though two electric motors, which will drive a rear wheel each. Laminated lithium-ion batteries will provide the juice, each one mounted low for better weight distribution. Power output has yet to be revealed.
Among the bold claims for the ESFLOW are a wraparound windscreen for unobstructed visibility and the ability to travel for 240 kilometres (149 miles) on a single charge.
Nissan has also stressed that the ESFLOW is an electric car from the ground up - not an internal combustion model that has been converted to run on electricity.
As for the looks, that's up to you to decide. We reckon there's a hint of Gotham City about it.
Either way, the voluptuous composite curves and cool blue headlamps are sure to draw the crowds at its Swiss unveiling next month. The ESFLOW even rides on an aluminium chassis with a built-in roll cage - swish.
