Getting creative with EVs

As Nissan continues to pursue accessible electric mobility for all, the company, in partnership with Tommy Pike Customs of Greenville, S.C., is bringing two EV concepts to SEMA, providing inspiration as to how car enthusiasm can thrive in a future of electric vehicles.

The first is a Nissan Sunny LEAF project, a classic Sunny pickup truck with a Nissan LEAF powertrain swap, providing all-electric power for the classic Nissan model.Read more details on the Sunny project.

The Nissan Ariya Surfwagon concept also combines retro design with modern technology, reimagining the all-new 2023 Ariya all-electric crossover as a beach-style surf wagon, complete with a wood panel-style wrap and other accessories. Read more details on the Surfwagon concept.

Frontier offers limitless possibilities

The recently redesigned Nissan Frontier is already inspiring builders to transform the midsize truck to reflect their personalities and preferred activities. Two concepts on display at SEMA showcase the range of possibilities for reimagining Frontier.

The NISMO Off-Road Frontier V8 concept, built by Forsberg Racing, takes Frontier to the extreme with a TITAN V8 engine, unique suspension, a wide-body conversion and multiple NISMO Off-Road parts. Read more details on the NISMO Off-Road Frontier V8 concept.

At the other end of the spectrum, Nissan enthusiast and influencer Christina Roki will show a Frontier Street Truck project. Wearing a distinct wrap and lowered with a unique wheel-and-tire package, Roki’s Frontier harkens back to the “mini truckin'” craze of the ’90s.
