The third-generation Note was revealed in Japan on 24 November 2020 and went on sale on 23 December 2020. It is based on the CMF-B platform and, for this generation, is only available with an e-Power series hybrid drivetrain, in two-wheel drive or, from later in 2021, four-wheel drive with a second motor powering the rear axle. The E13 retains strut front and torsion beam rear suspension; the car is 55 mm shorter than the outgoing model with the turning radius reduced to 4.9 m, and body stiffness was increased 30 percent with ultra-high-tensile steel. The 2WD Note uses a lithium-ion battery mounted under the front seats. The Note won Car of the Year Japan for 2021-2022, and it is related to the Nissan Juke (F16) and Renault Clio V.

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.

The E13 Note actually shrank versus its predecessor — 55mm shorter overall — yet Nissan still made the body 30% stiffer using ultra-high-tensile steel.

The E12 Note's tiny 1.2-litre DIG-S engine used a supercharger to match the performance of a 1.5-litre — reportedly Nissan's first-ever supercharged production model.

Near the end of its run, Nissan quietly built Russian-market Notes without the seatbelt pretensioners still listed on the contract — buyers only discovered it was missing when they pulled the seats out.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.

Japan was a minor market for the Swift: when it passed 2 million sales in 2011, about 39% were in India and 27% in Europe, against roughly 15% at home.

To adapt the Horizon for America, Chrysler bought nearly 100 Volkswagen Rabbits purely to reverse engineer them.

The Mk3 Focus RS's AWD system could send 100 percent of engine power to the rear wheels alone — built not in Ford's home country, but at the Saarlouis plant in Germany.

In June 2003, a Mégane II became the subject of the first ever live televised crash test with a real human driver at the wheel instead of a dummy — filmed by Top Gear.

This Wagon R redesigned its rear doors specifically to kill off the D-pillar — bigger doors with built-in quarter glass solved what earlier generations needed a whole extra pillar for.

The BX was the UK's best-selling diesel car for four years from 1987, and 2,315,739 were built in all.

Six months before Suzuki retired the Fronte name for good, the CN11S's 796cc version was already being built in China under a completely different name: the Anchi 6330.

Built to use up Chrysler-Simca's parts bin, it took its engine and gearbox straight from the front-wheel-drive Simca 1100 but mounted them amidships instead.
