Last week at the Geneva International Motor Show, Nissan dropped the curtain on its newest concept vehicle â€“ the IMx KURO. If this electric crossover looks familiar to you, itâ€™s because it is â€“ Nissan originally revealed the IMx at the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show.

Since then, the automaker has made some exciting enhancements to the IMx KURO. This mighty machine now boasts an all-new look with black trim and wheels, an updated grille, and a new dark gray body color, which is generating a great deal of buzz.Â

But, more importantly, the IMx KURO is also providing consumers with a glimpse into Nissan Intelligent Mobility, which is the company's vision for changing how cars are powered, driven and integrated into society. According to Nissan, the concept vehicle is designed to strengthen the link between car and driver as a close, reliable partner that delivers a safer, more convenient and exciting drive.Â

The tech-inclusions in the IMx KURO reflect this viewpoint. For one, it features Brain to Vehicle (B2V) technology, which interprets signals from the driverâ€™s mind to assist in maneuvering the IMx. The Kuro concept also builds on Nissanâ€™s ProPILOT technology by offering fully autonomous operation. When in ProPILOT mode, the system stows the steering wheel inside the dash and reclines all seats, giving the driver more space to enjoy their commute.Â

Like all Nissan concept cars, the IMx KURO wonâ€™t be available for purchase. However, many of the conceptâ€™s cutting-edge technologies will make their way to the market for mass consumption.
