EXCLUSIVE! 2027 Nissan Pixo Revealed! The Twingo-Based EV With a Big Difference

Nissan has exposed its tiniest new EV– and beneath the unique styling, there's a really familiar automobile. The brand-new Nissan Pixo shares its battery, motor, platform and a lot of technology with the Renault Twingo E-Tech.

However Nissan insists this isn't just a Twingo with a various badge. So, has it done enough to give the Pixo its own identity?

In this very first look, Ginny takes an in-depth walkaround of the new Pixo, including its retro-inspired styling, pixel information and some smart Nissan Easter eggs. We also take a look within at the 10-inch touchscreen, Google built-in, Gemini AI, Face ID and the smart moving rear seats.

The Pixo gets a 27.5 kWh LFP battery, giving it a declared 161-mile WLTP range, with 50kW DC fast charging and 11kW AC charging standard throughout the variety. There's likewise one-pedal driving and vehicle-to-load ability.

At simply 3.79 metres long, it's designed for life in the city– however Nissan has managed to find space for a 356-litre boot, consisting of a 50-litre storage location for the charging cables.
Prices hasn't been verified yet, but Nissan states the Pixo will be placed in the inexpensive end of the EV market. We're expecting it to start around the exact same sort of money as the Renault Twingo, potentially around ₤ 19,000.

So, is the Pixo different enough from the Twingo to tempt purchasers away from its Renault sibling? And has Nissan finally managed to put enough of its own character into a shared platform?

Let us know what you consider the Nissan Pixo in the comments.

      @Electrifyingcom To be COMPLETELY fair to all of us…there is very rarely an occasion that an OEM, lets out a scoop without meaning it. You don’t get to see ANYTHING they don’t want you to see…so take this event as highly choreographed and accept that for what it is…you giving them free “column inches” and us being highly unimpressed.

    Well done Jonty and well done Nissan, I think they have done a good job on their shared platform with Renault.
    Although there are some similarities with the Twingo, I think they have made the right differences to this one to stand out on from the Twingo, looks good for a little city car.

      That’s really interesting to hear – I was pretty impressed with how they’d made it different. Ginny

    Nice video. A 15″ steel wheel with high sidewall is ideal for town driving. Some alloys are way too easy to kerb (especially when the wheel approaches the kerb before the tyre)

      @grahammcdonald

      It’s interesting that some tyres have rubber ring alloy protecting guards built in and some don’t.

      @johnthemagnificent7022 no real need for big alloys in a tiny car, just makes the ride harsher

    Well Nissan again is doing the bare minimum, even Dacia put more external changes and their own style to the platform

    1. @DerpSenpai Avatar
      @DerpSenpai

      The dacia one is bigger than the twingo. 3.850 m vs 3.780 m. The Spring is almost Renault 5 size!

      You may not have noticed, but Nissan are no different to other manufacturers. Most of the traditional major car markets are quite saturated and highly competitive. Whilst cost reduction via shared platforms and shared manufacturing aren’t new, all the big volume manufacturers are struggling to justify developing completely bespoke platforms and designs, especially with city cars and superminis where margins are extremely small. Economies of scale are key, so every change a company makes to the shared design means fewer shared parts, smaller volume parts production and ultimately increased costs. Then people complain prices are too high.

      Hey, sure, I get it. Badge engineering pays the bills. But bringing up the brilliant Pao and BE-1 next to this super low effort is a bit too much.

      ​@Electrifyingcom yes, thank you, that would be lovely, but more importantly, please campaign to get the Renault 4 & 5 brought over here. We need those cars and we were once promised them.

    Still think they could have just combined all 3 of these jointly-developed models and had one car called the Pingo!

    I think the Spring is really impressive in how different they’ve made it to the Twingo. For the most part, this is just a Twingo with different lights though IMO.

    1. @chingai3589 Avatar
      @chingai3589

      Sadly both the Dacia Spring or the Renault Twingo didn’t get Any liquid cooling for the batteries thermal management. Meaning they we built without the care for the batteries longevity.

      @chingai3589 doesn´t the Pixo have it?

    3. @PaulHojda Avatar
      @PaulHojda

      @chingai3589 Don’t think that’s gonna be a big problem, this is a city car after all, the vast majority will be sold as second cars, and be charged at home with slow chargers. Thermal management is more important on large battery packs that charge quickly.

    It should be called the Micra! It is why the Micra got its name in the first place. It is crazy that car sizes have got so big that the Micra is too big to be the small car in Nissan’s range. I like the Pixo though, looks smart.

      It’s nothing new, it was happening at least as far back as the 1960s and 1970s. Compare the size of cars like the original Ford Fiesta, Escort, Cortina, the VW Golf, Polo and Jetta or VX Corsa and Astra to the later versions. They have all grown in size and weight such that they match older cars from one or more categories above. Manufacturers simply like to keep using the names of popular cars for new platforms. Brand recognition sells cars.

      My wife’s first car in 2003 (the one that the latest one borrows some styling cues from) was a Micra. It was already then a standard supermini like Polo, Climbing, Corsa, Fiesta. Which is what the Micra is now. It hasn’t grown since then really.

    I prefer this front to the circular lights in the Twingo.

    Who’d have thought that the thing that BL/British Leyland did – and were rightly ridiculed and called out for – is now standard practice for car builders all these years later.
