Nissan builds a car every minute at Sunderland — and every month there’s a £1 raffle for staff to win a Qashqai or Juke.
The Symbioz , set to be revealed in the spring, will be pitched towards buyers looking for a price competitive SUV like the Qashqai.
Sylvia Dos Santos, Head of Naming Strategy at Renault, said: "For this new compact family car, we wanted a name with human significance, expressing the close bond between a family and their car.
"The name Symbioz perfectly illustrates life with our vehicle, a place where passengers are as one with their vehicle and the environment.
She added: "Driving a Symbioz mean travelling aboard a high-tech vehicle and enjoying an enhanced on-board experience that is open and connected to the outside world."
A spokesperson for Renault said:"At 4.41 metres long, Symbioz will be the most compact SUV in Renault's C segment.
"Pulling together the brand’s technology in a single vehicle, it will come equipped with the new-generation coverless Solarbay
opacifying panoramic sunroof and the E-Tech full hybrid 145 horsepower engine for driving pleasure and reduced fuel consumption."
