During a fabulous live streaming event, Nissan introduced the all-new Ariya from the Nissan Pavilion in Yokohama, Japan. CEO Makoto Uchida and Chief Operating Officer Ashwani Gupta unveiled the Ariya an electric crossover SUV that lets customers travel up to approximately 300 miles per charge.
“The Ariya, a key model in Nissan’s plan to roll out 10 new models in 20 months, demonstrates our commitment to meeting customer demand for crossovers with the most advanced electrified, automated and connected technologies,” Gupta said. “The company expects sales of its EVs and e-POWER electrified models to be more than 1 million units a year by the end of fiscal 2023. The Ariya will play a significant role in attaining that goal.”
With the Ariya, Nissan shines not only in technology but also with its design. Simply put, the marriage between substance and style is seamless. The Ariya’s striking looks represent Nissan’s new design language which brings timeless Japanese Futurism, a trend in the fashion world, to its latest design. It is characterized by a distinctively clean and minimalist Japanese approach, conveyed in a simple yet powerfully modern way.
Nissan’s designers took advantage of the car’s new EV platform, which allows for a flat floor, and its compact climate control components to give the Ariya a very spacious cabin. The interior, reminiscent of a London or New York City loft apartment includes thin profile Zero Gravity seats.
The star of the Ariya is its all-electric drive train that combines excellent power delivery, charging capabilities, and range. Owners can choose from multiple configurations to best meet their individual needs. These include two-wheel-drive and new “e-4ORCE” all-wheel-drive versions, as well as two different battery sizes. The “e-4ORCE” all-wheel control system balances the powerful performance with a smooth, comfortable ride and all-weather capability. The system’s twin electric motors provide balanced, assured handling with sports car-level power. This all-new Nissan Ariya is scheduled to go on sale in Japan in mid-2021, followed by the U.S. and Canada later in the year. U.S. pricing will start around $40,000. #NissanAriya
