Unboosted steering. What surely felt like unboosted brakes. And a central seating position, with a second seat in the back, just like a jet fighter. This is the Nissan New Mobility Concept, and it’s absolutely absurd. But if it’s also the urban mobility concept for the future, it’s an absolute joy.
I should clarify that when I say “the future,” what I really mean is “the present, if you live in Europe.” Because while Nissan is calling this the “New Mobility Concept,” it’s actually a little car-ish thing called the Renault Twizy, and it’s already sold across the Atlantic Ocean for around €6,000.
