Nissan Xmotion Concept Smoothly Blends Sleek Lines, Rugged Ability
Nissan's new Xmotion concept debuting at the North American International Auto Show continues the automaker's experimentation with applying smoother, more streamlined styling for its crossovers. The firm intends to begin applying this sleek aesthetic to its production vehicles in 2020.
The Xmotion refines Nissan's V-shaped grille by giving it an understated shape with gloss black louvers. Thin metallic trim outlines the edges and continues up the hood. U-shaped LED headlights accentuate the vehicle's width. The front three-quarters perspective is the model's major highpoint. The subtle sculpting for the big fenders provides a smooth appearance, while remaining rugged. The pewter-colored paint accentuates these lines even more, and the company wraps the fenders and side sills in carbon fiber.
At the rear, Nissan's designers continue to apply delicately subtle styling. Skinny taillights wrap around the sides. There's no visible opening for the hatchback, the roof-mounted carrier provides a place to haul cargo. Inside, the Xmotion fits six people side across three rows of two seats each, and a floating console runs down the center of the vehicle. The designers extensively apply references to Japan throughout the cabin, too. For example, the lower portion of the dashboard is wood and uses an architectural joinery technique that doesn't require fasteners or glue. In addition, when the infotainment system starts up, it initially takes on the appearance of a koi fish. The red and white upholstery reference's Japan's flag, too.
The company says that the concept does pack the ProPilot semi-autonomous driving tech, though.
