Get ready for an exciting showcase from Nissan at the upcoming Tokyo Auto Salon in January 2024. Known as Japan's answer to SEMA, but with a more refined taste, this event is set to display a wide array of Nissan's creative automotive prowess.

A Van for the Unthinkable

The highlight of Nissan's lineup is the Disaster Support Mobile-Hub, ingeniously built on the Nissan Caravan. What makes this van stand out is its portable power station, ingeniously repurposed from old batteries of the Nissan Leaf electric hatchback. Designed for emergencies like earthquakes and floods where power is scarce, this van is a beacon of hope and innovation.

A Glimpse of the Rugged and the Quirky

Alongside the Mobile-Hub, Nissan teases the X-Trail Crawler Concept, a robust take on the Rogue. This model is expected to feature a raised suspension, a sturdy roof rack with an integrated LED light bar, all-terrain tires, and a heavy-duty body kit. It's a vision of ruggedness, with a cargo compartment ready for any adventure.

Nissan is also bringing the Beams Customized Concept of the Roox – a tiny minivan designed under Japan's kei car regulations. In collaboration with Japanese fashion house Beams, this concept is a fusion of automotive and fashion, featuring denim fabric both inside and out.
