Nissan has unveiled the Ariya Single Seater Concept . As the name suggests, it is a concept car, a project that aims to demonstrate how the powertrain conceived for the Ariya electric crossover can also be used inside a single-seater racing car. The concept is was presented at the Nissan Futures event in which the manufacturer also showed an interesting prototype of a lunar rover that uses some technologies always present on its new electric crossover.

Unfortunately, the automaker did not disclose any powertrains from the Ariya & egrave; been chosen. You can & ograve; to hypothesize, given the nature of the concept car, that the manufacturer has opted for the powertrain with double electric motor of 290 kW and 600 Nm powered by an 87 kWh battery (usable). If this were really so, it would mean that the concept is; equipped with all-wheel drive with e-4ORCE technology that manages in the best way the distribution of torque on the front and rear axles.

As for the design, Nissan took its cue from both its Ariya and its electric car racing within the Formula E championship. For the car & egrave; Extensive use of carbon has been made to limit the more & ugrave; total weight possible. It is, therefore, a very particular concept to demonstrate the potential; sports cars and how it is possible, according to Nissan, to transfer technology from the road to the track and not just vice versa. The manufacturer made no mention of the possibility; to take this concept to the road in the future. Juan Manuel Hoyos , general manager of Nissan's marketing division, commented:

At Nissan, we dare to do so & ograve; that others don't. With this concept we want to show the high performance potential of Ariya's powertrain within an motorsports inspired package that not only suggests the design and style of the road car that inspired it, but that also demonstrates a new and efficient design language for high-performance electric.
