The new Nissan note will go on sale later this year, but unlike the current model, which is a supermini-MPV to rival the likes of the Honda Jazz, the 2013 Nissan note will instead opt for the likes of regular superminis such as the Ford Fiesta and Hyundai i20.

The new styling was previewed by the Invitation concept at the 2012 Geneva motor Show, while the production car was revealed at this year’s show.

The scalloped flanks and sculpted headlights help give the new car a bold new look. The headlights now interlock with the grille, and there’s a U-shaped crease in the doors. This is called the ‘squash line,’ and is inspired by the flight of a squash ball travelling round a court.
Inside, the information displays on the dash encourage greener driving, while the sliding rear bench seat is carried over from the previous car, allowing owners to easily alter the amount of legroom or boot space.
