Have you ever thought that minivans are a thing of the past? Well, Nissan has a surprise for you. Despite the rise of crossovers and SUVs, minivans have yet to say the last word.

Nissan will unveil an electric minivan concept, Nissan Hyper Tourer, at this year's Japan Mobility Show, which promises a renewed experience of family trips and camping with electricity. This concept reflects the potential of electric vehicles in the design and functionality of modern minivans.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular, especially because of their unique design features that allow automakers more freedom, including more space. Nissan's Hyper Tourer concept is a real revolution in this context. Thanks to Nissan's EV technology vision, this minivan offers an "ultra-low" center of gravity, which it achieved by grouping components into the flat bottom of the vehicle. This design allows for plenty of room for all the needs of a modern camper van that looks like it's from another century, or rather the year 2100.

Companies are exploring the possibilities of electric camper vans, and have already unveiled some interesting concepts. Nissan's Hyper Tourer but brings something fresh. The cabin offers front seats that rotate 360 degrees, allowing interaction between passengers in different types of seats. Passengers in the rear can control the navigation and audio system via a wearable screen. No less impressive is the upper console section with lighting incorporating traditional Japanese patterns, while the LED panel floor displays images of the riverbed and sky, creating a relaxing environment.

The innovation doesn't stop there. The concept also includes an AI system that tracks passengers' biometrics, changing mood lighting and music based on brainwave, breathing, perspiration and heart rate detection.

With the Hyper Tourer, Nissan is not only stepping into the future of electric minivans, but also redefining how technology can improve the driving experience and passenger interactions. The unveiling of this concept at the Japan Motor Show highlights how electric vehicles can bring a breath of fresh air to the automotive industry, especially in the minivan segment that was once very popular among families.

Nissan's Hyper Tourer is not just a vehicle, but a promise of a future where electric power and innovative design redefine the meaning of the family car. This is just the beginning, and we can't wait to see what the future of electric minivans brings. Nissan has clearly shown that the minivan segment is still alive and full of possibilities.
