The Ariya Single Seater Concept is "a demonstration project of how the all-electric Nissan Ariya road vehicle powertrain may be employed in a customised single seater racing car chassis," according to Nissan.
Which practically translates to a near-400bhp, all-wheel-drive single-seat track toy.
Which seems like a lot of fun, especially considering it's a lot more powerful than a Formula E racer.
On that topic, Nissan claims that the Ariya Single Seater combines the worlds of the Ariya electric crossover and the company's Formula E rival, with stylistic elements from both.
We believe the latter is performing the most of the heavy lifting.
Nissan's racing director, Tommaso Volpe, stated, "Nissan competes in Formula E not just to race on the track, but also to assist the development of enticing electric automobiles for customers."
"Our EV projects feed our Formula E programme, and vice versa, enabling for both road-to-track and track-to-road technology transfer."
The Nissan Ariya Single Seater Concept combines the Ariya's all-electric engine, two motors, and innovative all-wheel drive system with a pure single-seat racing chassis, demonstrating just how exhilarating electric cars can be."
Is that anything they'd think about putting into production?
We don't think so, considering that we've seen a lot of Leaf RC designs that have remained little more than enticing research demonstrations for EV technology.
I'm curious as to what the next concept will be...
