Nissan Intelligent Mobility is the company’s vision for changing how vehicles are powered, driven and connected with society.
The new Nissan Dayz features exterior proportions that create a sense of sturdy reliability. The interior offers luxurious roominess beyond the norm for the kei car segment. The car’s newly developed platform enhances power, performance and fuel efficiency.
