It's better than having Japanese katakana warning you your engine has intermittent problems.

Some articles said it's coming to America. One was spotted outside the Nissan US HQ. Social media marketing ploy by Nissan? j/k I don't see room in their lineup here though considering the Versa Note exists (we often have limited selection of models in America so yeah).
