The V2X function allows the Hyper Tourer concept to supply electricity to other EVs, homes, stores, and offices during travel and various business occasions.

In terms of design, the exterior features smooth body panels, sharp character lines, and a white waistline that serves as a headlight and signature lamp. Nissan claims that the Kumiko-patterned wheels and the soft, straight body lines create a premium feel beyond the concept's class.

The interior of the Nissan Hyper Tourer concept is spacious which is made possible by compact components and high-energy density all-solid-state batteries, resulting in an ultra-low centre of gravity.

The fully autonomous driving feature enables face-to-face discussions between front- and rear-seat passengers. The front seats can swivel 360 degrees while the passengers at the rear can use a wearable display to view and operate the navigation and audio on the infotainment display.
