Paris Preview: Nissan Townpod Concept

As any other automaker that will be present at the upcoming Paris Auto Show this October, Nissan is too announcing the goodies it has prepared for the event. The Japanese carmaker has therefore revealed a world premiere to take place there by unveiling the Townpod concept.

According to Nissan, the Townpod is more of a preview of what the company's zero emission vehicle lineup could be like and has even revealed a teaser image of what seems to be the right side headlight of this concept.

“At the forthcoming Paris Motor Show, Nissan will be unveiling for the first time a concept vehicle that offers insight into how Nissan could expand its portfolio of zero-emission vehicles. Called Townpod, the concept combines eye-catching design with a spacious and practical interior,” the company says in a statement.

“It is designed to offer zero-emissions mobility to a future generation of home-based, innovative entrepreneurs who are creative and tech-savvy. It is more than just a car and it's more than just a van - it heralds a new-era of flexible, stylish vehicles that will bring electric-vehicle mobility to the masses,” the same statement reads.

Joining the Townpod in Nissan’s booth in Paris will also be the all-electric Leaf, shortly before the first European customer deliveries begin early next year, as well as the new Nissan Micra. Also present will be the company’s all new small-sports crossover, coinciding with the start of customer deliveries for the model. Finally, rounding off the line-up is the updated Nissan X-TRAIL model, which comes with a refreshed front grille, rear lights and larger wheels.
