After unveiling the Nissan IMs concept car at the 2019 North American International Auto Show in January, the â€œelevated sports sedanâ€ will make its second appearance at the 18th Shanghai International Automobile Exhibition later this month. The automaker will have the vehicle on display to show attendees how the companyâ€™s technologies and design embody Nissan Intelligent Mobility, which is their vision for changing how cars are powered, driven and integrated into society.

Using a fully electric powertrain comprised of dual electric motors (front and rear) and a fast charging 115 kWh battery, the IMs generates enough power (483 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque) to compete with most contemporary sports cars. On a single charge, the concept can travel a full 380 miles, plus it features all-wheel drive for better weight balance, traction and cornering. Offering the choice of an autonomous or a manual driving mode, the IMs connects hands-free operation with exciting high-performance â€“ it truly is the future of mobility.

Inside the cabin, the vehicle boasts a â€œ2+1+2" design with pivoting front seats and a rear seat that can fit three across or converted into an indulgent "Premier Seat" when the rear outboards are folded. Since the sedanâ€™s battery is located under the body of the electric vehicle, the IMs provides a higher driving position for greater visibility.
