Note of a Nissan Tone

07 September 2004: Nissan is to produce a Renault Modus-like car next year, reflecting the company's ties with the French marque.

The Nissan Tone is a small car based on a stretched version of the Nissan Micra architecture, which is also used to build the new Modus.

A pre-production version of the Tone will debut at the Paris auto show. A version of the car for Japan, the Note, goes on sale there in January. The Tone won't reach Europe until the end of 2005.
