While this new Nissan SUV is just a concept and likely will not find its way to our showroom, the Nissan brand wanted to introduce some new design, form and function ideas for forthcoming models, and this particular playground worked well to try out a few things. The design team came away happy with their work, and it is easy to see why.
"In the Nissan Xmotion concept, we explored the more rugged and powerful side of Nissan Intelligent Mobility. Bold and powerful forms and proportions are, upon closer inspection, contrasted with aspects of traditional Japanese craftsmanship expressed in a contemporary way," said Alfonso Albaisa, senior vice president of global design at Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.
From the outside, the design looks rather simple and vaguely futuristic, but there are a lot of really neat design flourishes up close. Inside, the vehicle is loaded with technology and high-end materials that really make the future look bright for Nissan SUVs.
"We envision the Xmotion concept to be a highly functional SUV that can be driven every day, yet can take the owners and friends to a national park or recreation area on a whim," Albaisa said. "With its combination of style and technology, this concept fulfills Nissan's mission of moving people to a better world."
