The Japanese automaker currently doesn&#8217;t have a truck in this class, but a fresh report from <em>Automotive News<\/em> claims a small pickup could be heading to North America.<\/p>\n<p>Without giving any names, Nissan is citing a &#8220;person familiar with the matter&#8221; who claims to be in the know about a new ute that would be positioned below the midsize Frontier and the fullsize Titan. Rather than being powered by a gasoline engine like the compact trucks from Ford and Hyundai Santa Cruz, the unnamed workhorse would come only with electric propulsion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9612\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/nissan-d21-series-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Such a product would literally be in a league of its own as basically all the electric trucks that have been announced, none of which are on dealer lots yet, are bigger. From the Ford F-150 Lighting and Tesla Cybertruck to the Chevrolet Silverado EV and the Rivian R1T, all these zero-emissions pickups are going to be bigger than the alleged Nissan electric ute.<\/p>\n<p>However, we wouldn\u2019t get too excited just yet as Nissan\u2019s VP of sales in the United States has not confirmed the report. When contacted by <em>Automotive News<\/em>, Judy Wheeler admitted that while &#8220;all kinds of things are under discussion,&#8221; she is not aware of &#8220;any serious discussion there at this point.&#8221; Interestingly, she didn&#8217;t completely exclude the possibility of such an EV product, telling <em>AN<\/em> &#8220;I could see that coming.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All things considered, it looks as though even if Nissan will green-light a purely electric compact truck, it\u2019s unlikely to go on sale in the foreseeable future. Rival companies could beat Nissan to the punch if progress stalls, but small electric pickups are a matter of when rather than if. A compact offering would serve as a modern-day interpretation of the Nissan Hardbody (D21 series) pictured here, which was phased out in 1997 to make room for the Frontier.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autonews.com\/cars-concepts\/will-nissan-introduce-electric-compact-pickup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Automotive News<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz have reinstated the compact pickup segment in the United States after a long hiatus, a segment originally introduced by Nissan towards the end of the 1950s.
