Nissan has used the 2008 Paris motor show to reveal a three-seat electric car designed to reduce congestion and the environmental impact of cars.
A version of the electric car will be produced by 2010 for the US and Japanese markets before being sold in greater numbers and more countries by 2012.

“There is a new generation coming up who, finally, are questioning why we do the things we do,” says Francois Bancon, Nissan general manager exploratory and advance planning department, product strategy and product planning division.
In eye-catching concept form, the Nuvu boasts cute styling in a sub-three-metre-long three-door package.
The Nissan Nuvu is powered by an electric engine that can be recharged through a powerpoint or using the solar panels arranged in the shape of a tree and its branches on the glass roof.
