Suited for all-terrain and urban lifestyles, the TeRRA will surely please those looking for a combination of sustainable-transportation and SUV functionality. While still only in 100% electric-vehicle concept form, the TeRRA certainly looks like it has a bright future ahead.

It offers both a rugged outer appearance and an inviting and practical passenger-compartment, with unique seating arrangements that really stand out: the driver is situated in an almost central position, while rear passengers are located shoulder-level to the front passengers, providing optimal visibility in every position.

Power is provided by the same system as found in the LEAF, hence each rear wheel is powered by its own electric motor. The hydrogen fuel cell is the main roadblock preventing large-scale production at this time. Supply for fuel cells is tight at this moment in time, but is expected to improve in the not-so-distant future.
