2023 Nissan Sakura

Nissan unveiled the all-new Sakura electric minivehicle in Japan. Sales of the newest addition to Nissan's EV lineup are scheduled to start in the market during summer 2022. Named after the iconic Japanese cherry blossom, the Sakura's affordable price provides more consumer choice in the EV market. The Nissan Sakura EV takes the minivehicle class to the next level. Its nimble handling and 4.8 meter turning radius allows drivers to execute sharp maneuvers with ease. Despite its size, the Sakura has a spacious interior and an ample driving range, making it perfect for daily driving needs such as commuting and shopping. It also features ProPILOT Park, an automated system designed to make parking easier and driving more pleasurable.

Powerful, smooth driving performance


The Nissan Sakura features the instant, smooth power and quietness that are the hallmarks of EVs. Equipped with advanced control technology and a motor producing 47 kW and 195 Nm of torque, the Sakura's quick and steady acceleration makes merging on highways effortless. Meanwhile, the technology Nissan has cultivated through its development of the LEAF over more than a decade has enabled the Sakura to have the highest level of cabin quietness in the minivehicle class. Three drive modes - Eco, Standard and Sport - provide optimal performance for different situations. Using e-Pedal Step, the driver can decelerate smoothly and steadily by easing off the accelerator pedal - an action that also charges the battery through regenerative braking. The Sakura's speed can be modulated using just the accelerator pedal. This makes driving more enjoyable on city streets, where repeated acceleration and deceleration are necessary, and on snow-covered roads that require smooth deceleration. In addition, the Nissan Sakura's low center of gravity enhances stability and offers superior ride comfort over uneven road surfaces.

State-of-the-art e-powertrain


The Nissan Sakura is equipped with a state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery that has a track record of performance and reliability in the LEAF. Thanks to the special stacking method of its cells, the battery is compact, allowing the Sakura to have a spacious interior. Yet it offers a range of up to 180 km (based on WLTC Japan cycle), making it perfect for daily use. The battery can also be used as a mobile power source during emergencies and provide a day's worth of electricity to a home.

Advanced driving systems - a first for minivehicles


In addition to the ProPILOT driver assistance system, the Sakura is equipped with the ProPILOT Park system - a minivehicle first. ProPILOT Park automatically controls steering, acceleration, braking, shifting and the parking brake while parking. These advanced technologies enhance driving ease and pleasure, from city streets and parking lots to highways. Scheduled to go on sale in Japan in summer 2022, the Sakura is priced starting at approximately 1.78 million yen (including consumption tax and the clean energy vehicle subsidy). Nissan will offer online purchasing options such as video chats and a dedicated website which will enable customers to choose from conventional face-to-face services all the way to full online orders from the comfort of their home.
