Speed limits may stop you going fast, but that doesn't mean your car can't still give you the sensation of speed.
Named Round Box after its unconventional design, which blends a boxy base with sporty lines, this Nissan convertible concept has 'road surface windows' in the floor to provide the four occupants with a direct view of the tarmac. It also has Nissan's Around View Monitor among its safety systems.
The front seats combine a bench base, for easy access, with bucket-style backs for maximum support during cornering.
It's powered by a turbocharged direct-injection petrol engine, but don't expect the Round Box to go into production: it's a pointer to the style of small, youth-orientated Nissans of the future.
