Nissan will display a physical concept car that had previously been unveiled only in virtual form at its Nissan Futures mobility event this year in Japan.

The February-long event at its Global Headquarters Gallery will showcase the automaker’s vision of the future of sustainable mobility and innovative design. Star of its show will be the Max-Out EV convertible. The model was previously shown in virtual form as part of the Nissan Ambition 2030 vision announced in November 2021 under the Nissan Futures banner.

The Max-Out is said to embody the carmaker’s ambition to support greater access to both sustainable and innovative mobility. Nissan says it was created on the concept of being one with the car, the Max-Out two-seater convertible is designed to provide a liberating sense of openness while offering an enhanced, dynamic driving experience.

Nissan Futures will also feature interactive customer events, panel discussions with experts and various displays to exhibit its innovations in electrification, vehicle intelligence, power management, vehicle battery reuse among others. The events and panel discussions will also be available to attend virtually. Event display and content information is available on the Nissan global corporate website and will be showcased on its YouTube and LinkedIn channels.
