Although Nissan's funky looking Nuvu concept car uses an electric powertrain, that is not the point of the concept. Nissan takes it as a given that future city cars will be electric. The Nuvu demonstrates a small, agile car with unique interior space. The car is about 2.7 metres long and uses 2+1 seating -- there's only one seat on the driver side, and a front and rear seat on the passenger side. The Nuvu also has solar panels to help charge the batteries.
