We were betting on a conceptual vision of the next generation of Nissan Juke. Undoubtedly it is a crossover , of small dimensions, high waist, and a very aggressive culminating in a hood integrated into the end of the fins headlights. He seemed clear. Now we know that is called Nissan Gripz Concept and, in the words of Nissan, we will promote a “more innovative approach to the concept crossover Nissan”. But how have classic inspired to design it?
Nissan Crossover Concept, or the anticipation of a new Juke
According to Nissan, have taken up the spirit of the Datsun 240Z of the Seventies , and especially their versions prepared to compete in off-road tests. Precisely the same who won the East African Safari Rally of 1973. Recall that this sporty two-seater GT was a Datsun. Nissan also talks about his inspiration in cycling, another point that, again, disturbs us.
At some point in this video we could see, among other things, a speedometer that reaches 220 km / h and a tachometer in the red zone begins about 6,500 rpm. Will you use the 1.6 DIG -T that, among others, uses the Nissan Juke NISMO RS ?
