Nissan Teatro for Dayz: A clean-canvas, connected concept car from Nissan

It may look rather like the Cube hatchback, but the oddly named Teatro for Dayz is focused more on the inside than the outside. The cabin, as the name implies, is designed to be something of a theatre just as much as a functioning vehicle.

The interior stage is set to show photos and moving imagery over the dash, doors and seats. It’s what Nissan is calling a ‘future canvas’. This also means most of the normal buttons on the dashboard are gone, replaced by hand gestures and voice commands – loud applause and shouts of ‘encore’ being two we’d guess.

This electric vehicle will alter the display depending on what the car is doing. Things like navigation data will show while you’re driving along and then that will switch to artwork and videos when you’ve parked. According to Nissan, Teatro for Dayz is an “indication of what people will expect of EVs in the future”.
