Overview
The second generation eK Space and its crossover SUV-styled variant, called the eK X Space (pronounced "eK Cross Space"), were unveiled on 6 February 2020, and went on sale on 19 March 2020. Mitsubishi used various B30 and B40-series model codes, while Nissan's internal code for their Roox rebadge is BA1. After it was determined that the driver's side airbags did not meet the required standards, production was halted from December 2021 until February 2022. All examples of the eK Space and Roox built after December 2020 were recalled to have the driver's airbags replaced and additional knee airbags installed.
