Auto Car | 2005 Nissan Pivo Concept | Nissan treaded new ground back in 2005 with their Pivo Concept, a small Lithium-ion battery powered personal transport vehicle. The most outstanding feature was its unique rotating cabin, which made the use of a reverse gear absolutely obsolete.
The Nissan Pivo 2 Concept builds on the original Pivo and adds wheels that can turn 90 degrees, allowing the Pivo to drive sideways for easy parking. The rotating cabin is still featured of course but Nissan has provided the single-seater with some company, the Robotic Agent. The Robotic Agent has been designed to make journeys less stressful and conversations on just just about anything car related (ie basic functions or more advanced functions like where the nearest parkign spot is) can be held in English and Japanese.
The egg-like Nissan Pivo concept from 2005 is an unusual city car concept with the unique ability to rotate it's cabin 360 degrees.
The Nissan Pivo also reduces blind spots by displaying the vehicles surrounding onto small monitors mounted on the A pillars.
A dash-mounted infrared (IR) commander allows the driver to operate the navigation and stereo systems with simple finger movements, without letting go of the steering wheel.
Inside, seating for three is provided, with the driver in a central, slightly forward, seat.
The Nissan Pivo is powered by Nissan's own compact, high-performance lithium-ion battery and its unique Super Motor, results in zero emissions.
In 2007 Nissan unveiled a similar concept based on the Pivo. The new concept had the unimaginative name of Pivo 2.

This is one nice looking Nissan Concept. I think this egg looking Nissan does have capacity to carry two person.
