Nissan unveils all-electric Terra SUV concept [w/video]

Nissan has pulled back the wraps on the Terra Concept a zero-emissions, all-wheel-drive fuel cell vehicle destined for a debut at this year's Paris Motor Show.

The design concept is meant to show off what Nissan thinks its "youthful customers in Northern Europe" are pining for in a sustainable runabout. We had no idea those buyers were yearning for a chubbier Juke.

Inside, sculpted wood and acrylic blend to form a cabin suitable for a design exercise, though we're particularly taken with the notion of an instrument panel that can be taken away and used as a tablet computer.

While Nissan has made it clear that the Terra is not meant to showcase any future technologies, the concept does boast a clever drivetrain. The front wheels get their thrust from the same electric motor and battery system currently found in the Nissan Leaf, while the rear wheels each get their own electric motor for added thrust. A small hydrogen-powered engine generates power for the vehicle's batteries. Check out the full press release below.
