The first highlight is the new Nissan Kicks e-POWER. The car has won the 2021 “Technology of the Year” award, given by the Automotive Researchers' and Journalists' Conference of Japan (RJC), for its e-POWER electrified powertrain. e-POWER offers the driving experience of a 100% electric vehicle, but without the need for external charging.

The new Almera is an intelligent urban sedan that has won the hearts of young families and millennials. It offers enhanced driving performance and economy from its 1.0-liter turbo engine. Driving confidence is heightened by an advanced safety technology suite of Nissan Intelligent Mobility, building on the reputation of the vehicle's distinctive space, comfort, and spaciousness.

Other highlights of the event include the chance to test drive a new Nissan Navara, the brave intelligent pickup truck for tough people. It is characterized by an aggressive new design, a new 2.3-liter twin-turbo diesel engine, and full intelligent driving technology from Nissan Intelligence Mobility.
