2017 Tokyo Motor Show
Nissan exhibits new technologies with our latest concept car, NISSAN IMx at the 2017 Tokyo Motor show. This page explains the representative of these technologies.
Driving Technology features
- On demand: selectable driving mode
- Fully autonomous drive using 360°
- Precision handling with confidence that makes driving a joy
- Advanced on-the-road enjoyment
With
the
newest
autonomous
technologies,
the
driver
can
opt
for
fully
autonomous
driving
by
selecting
ProPILOT
Drive
(PD
mode).
The
system
stows
the
steering
wheel
inside
the
dashboard
and
automatically
reclines
the
front
and
rear
seats,
allowing
the
vehicle’s
occupants
to
relax
and
enjoy
their
commute.
The
panoramic,
curved
display
above
the
dashboard
and
the
wood
grain-patterned
LCD
display
become
a
private
entertainment
center,
allowing
occupants
to
enjoy
the
scenery
outside,
watch
a
music
video
or
even
video
chat
with
someone
remotely,
making
full
use
of
their
time
while
traveling
to
their
destination.
When
Manual
Drive
(MD
mode)
is
selected,
the
steering
wheel
and
seats
return
to
their
original
positions,
allowing
the
driver
to
take
back
control.
The
IMx
offers
the
joy
of
driving
and
the
pleasure
of
travel
to
both
driver
and
passengers.
The
displays
and
infotainment
system
can
be
controlled
by
gestures,
eye
movements
and
voices.
New EV dedicated platform features
- Flat and spacious cabin space
- Never before experienced Zero Emission performance
- Cruising range that expands the sphere of action
New
EV
platform
built
on
the
IMx
will
boast
truly
efficient
packaging,
with
all
the
mechanical
components
taking
up
minimal
space,
which
in
turn
allows
for
an
extraordinarily
large
cabin
designed
to
provide
maximum
comfort
for
the
vehicle’s
occupants.
The
motors
combine
to
produce
320
kW
of
power
and
an
astounding
700
Nm
of
torque,
making
the
vehicle
a
powerful,
yet
quiet
crossover.
Also,
the
IMx
boasts
the
handling
prowess
of
a
high-performance
car.
The
new
platform’s
highly
rigid
nature
translates
to
an
excellent
on-road
feel,
while
the
low
center
of
gravity
enhances
the
vehicle’s
dynamic
qualities,
giving
it
a
sharper
turning
response
and
enhancing
overall
agility.

Connectivity Technology features
- Fully autonomous drive promises convenient new vehicle uses
- Contribution to Smart Energy Management
For example, the IMx has the ability to autonomously drive to the airport and park on its own, then pick up the owner when he or she returns from their trip. During that time, the IMx can perform tasks autonomously that were unimaginable until recently.
