“The wait is almost over for one of our most exciting vehicles, and I look forward to seeing the ARIYA on Australian roads,” says Warwick Daly, Deputy Director Marketing & Mobility, Nissan Australia.

“Nissan wrote the mass-market EV blueprint with LEAF, and ARIYA represents the next chapter of our electric vision, with incredible design and technology and, most-importantly, an exhilarating and engaging drive experience.”

As a Nissan electric vehicle conceived, designed and built in Japan, the ARIYA showcases an electrified brand identity that encapsulates its exterior design, interior layout, and seamless vehicle intelligence. Nissan's design team worked from the beginning to give the ARIYA a Japanese identity that transcends its striking style and performance.

To do so, they tapped into Japanese philosophies and applied them in a uniquely Nissan way.

"We wanted to ensure that the soul of the vehicle reflects our distinctive Japanese DNA, conveyed in a simple, yet powerfully modern manner," says Nissan Senior Vice President of Global Design, Alfonso Albaisa.

"We dubbed this 'Timeless Japanese Futurism' and tapped into key Japanese words to inspire our global design team to produce the ARIYA's ultra-sleek, seamless, sharp and powerful form."
