Nissan does not succumb to temptation! In spite of a real surge of almost unstoppable SUVs, the Japanese manufacturer has unveiled the third generation of the Note which remains a compact MPV. The newcomer is getting up to date and adopts the very successful style of the Ariya SUV.
For instance, the front end features a new black lacquered V-shaped front grille with the new Ariya logo in the centre. This grille is surrounded by LED headlights that are perfectly integrated with daytime running lights that are seamlessly incorporated into the grille's chrome.

The profile is very classic, with a fairly high roofline and a relatively big glazing that favors a feeling of space over dynamism. The roof can be black to give the car a more modern look. The rear section features a full-width taillight.
The cabin is a bit more modern with the adoption of a screen and digital instrumentation in a row. This allows the dashboard to be streamlined even though the ventilation controls remain physical. That's good for ergonomics. Surprisingly, the centre console is as high as on some sports cars!

The car is equipped with the latest driving aids such as ProPilot, which, coupled with the navigation system, is capable of automatically adapting the vehicle's speed to the limits and curves. Under the bonnet, the new Note will have a hybrid powertrain with an electric motor with more torque and a quieter combustion engine.
An all-electric version will be available at a later date and will be equipped with two motors providing all-wheel drive. The order books for the new Nissan Note will open on December 23 in Japan.

That is completely adorable i love it to bits😍
I don't think it's good looking. Also, they've accidently fitted the steering wheel to the wrong side.
It's looks practical, I sorta like it and it seems cosy.
Horrible
Hideous
