2005 Nissan Sport Concept - Click HERE for Original Thread

(from Nissan Press Release) The Nissan Sport Concept, which makes its world debut at the 2005 New York International Auto Show, is the latest in a series of dynamic performance/youth concept vehicles from Nissan Design, following the Nissan Actic and Nissan AZEAL concepts. The Nissan Sport Concept is a dynamic two-door hatchback with a dramatic four-seat interior.

“The story behind the development of the Sport Concept, AZEAL and Actic is that Nissan is thinking big about the small car segment,” said Mark McNabb, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc. “With these three design explorations, we’re focusing on how we can bring Nissan’s heritage of innovation, sportiness and driving pleasure to a category of vehicles that traditionally lack design excitement and strong visual appeal.”

The Nissan Sport Concept offers the look and feel of a grand touring car, yet is conceived as an affordable, attainable vehicle for buyers entering the new car marketplace for the first time.

looks like the child of a Murano, and an SiR :dunno:

I think it's a very nice car reminds me of a peugot.

pretty snazzy exhaust.

Unfortunately, all vehicles will start to look like the SIR.

Not be cause they are copying the style, but because of those ridiculous pedestrian safety vehicle dynamics.

It looks rather neat, like a mini Murano with a chopped top. Now if only they made a mini FX45 with a chopped top...

I've got to say, though I'm no big fan of the FWD sport compacts, this is a hell of a lot better than those two concepts they mention in the article. The Actic and Azeal. I can actually picture this one making production, too.

It reminds me of a Renault Clio Sport V6.

I'll be the one to second that, I really don't like FWD anymore.

But I can't aruge with the cards I've ben dealt... anyways.

Since Renault owns Nissan, it's not too surprising to see some of the platforms and styling influene to trickle down abit.

when did that happen? btw the cars reminds me of like a new pulsar...

BlueTurboEGG
Well, Iwouldn't say "own" they mor elike have a sizeable controlling interest in Nissan now.

I think they bought them out just before the new Altima was released.

Renault pretty much re-organised Nissan focus and got them out of trouble.

oh ic now well...thats neat

Altezza
I think it looks pretty cool i wouldnt mind taking it for a spin

yeah it kinda looks like a new generation of pulsar, maybe they'll put the latest generation of sr20 into it and match it up with some awd technology.:bthumbup: mmmmmmmmm GTI-R
