The Nissan Sakura (Nissan code KE0, Mitsubishi B6AW), named for Japan's national flower, is a battery-electric kei car marketed by Nissan and built by NMKV at Mitsubishi's Mizushima plant, introduced on 20 May 2022 as Nissan's first battery-electric kei car and developed alongside the Mitsubishi eK X EV (sharing the body structure of the petrol eK X, also the Nissan Dayz, with only the windshield, door handles and mirrors in common). It was the Mizushima plant's second EV after the i-MiEV, previewed by the IMk concept shown at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show (the name for "Intelligent Mobility K-car"), with a shield-design front adopted from the Ariya, long-bar taillights and eleven solid and four two-tone colours; a minor facelift with a body-coloured grille was unveiled in April 2026. A single 47 kW (63 hp) motor makes 195 N·m (144 lb·ft) for a 130 km/h (81 mph) top speed, with a 20 kWh lithium-ion battery giving an estimated 180 km (112 mi) WLTC range, in S (commercial), X and G grades. It won the 2022 Good Design Award, the 2022–2023 Japan Car of the Year and K Car of the Year (with the eK X EV) and the 2022 Nikkei Excellent Products and Services Award; sales in Japan were 21,887 in 2022, 37,140 in 2023, 22,926 in 2024 and 14,093 in 2025.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.
