2010 Nissan Pixo

Gracing the Nissan stand at the Paris auto show alongside the futurisitic NuVu and the revised Note mini-minivan is a new city car, the five-door Pixo, built in collaboration with Suzuki.

Competing in the hot A-class category (hot in all markets but North America), the four-passenger Pixo measures a tiny 11.7 feet long (just a few inches shorter than a Mini Cooper), 57.9 inches tall, and 63 inches wide.

Nissan has offered few details about the powertrains, other than to say it has a 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine “full four-speed automatic transmission”—as opposed to a partial four-speed automatic? The Pixo “continues the theme of compact urban motoring with outstanding green credentials,” as a companion to the electric Nuvu.

The Pixo is scheduled for sale in Europe in the spring of 2009 and in the U.S., well, never.
