Among its introductions at the Paris Motor Show, Nissan unveiled a new production city car—the Pixo—and a battery-electric concept car highlighting Nissan’s focus on electric drive for the future, the NuVu.
Pixo, built in collaboration with Suzuki Motor in Delhi, India, is a five-door, four-seater featuring a three cylinder 1.0-liter engine. With its lightweight construction, it produces CO2 emissions as low as 103 g/km with fuel consumption of 4.6 L/100km (51 mpg US) on the combined cycle (NEDC). Pixo is available with manual or automatic transmissions.
