Nissan Land Glider

Automobiles

The Nissan Land Glider is an electric concept car that Nissan presented at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show. It is a narrow-track vehicle that looks and feels like a mixture of a car, a motorcycle and an airplane. Cameras and monitors replace the rear-view mirrors, and inside, an aircraft-style yoke control takes the place of a traditional steering wheel. It rides on a motorcycle-inspired tandem architecture, so the car and its tires can lean up to 17 degrees in turns. Power comes from two electric motors connected to lithium-ion batteries mounted under the floor. The Land Glider also has a non-contact charging system that lets it be recharged at any wireless charging station.
