Will the Nissan Sakura ever go on sale in the UK?

I really like the electric Nissan Sakura. It's only sold in Japan, but surely they could bring it to the UK?

Imagine the Sunderland Nissan plant manufacturing them. When do you think this will happen, any time soon?

Unfortunately, Nissan does not currently have any plans to bring the Sakura to the UK in any capacity. While it's technically possible to build it here, higher manufacturing costs and the need to meet more stringent safety regulations would probably mean it couldn't be built and sold profitably here. Never say never, though...
