We really liked the look of the Nissan Lania sedan concept, a car that debuted in Beijing earlier this month. It has sharp, aggressive lines that exude muscularity; the only two things wrong with it were the two extra doors it had for rear passengers and the fact that it wasn’t already in production…
The rendering you see here, courtesy of X-Tomi, addresses only one of those issues, the one with the number of doors. What he’s done is take the already low-slung shape of the four-door and stretch it out/flatten it, while also removing the two rear doors in the process.
In the renderer’s vision, this would be for a suitable Toyonbaru rival from Nissan called “270Z”, if, that is, they don’t go ahead and take the IDx approach to creating it.
Whichever way they go, Nissan will pretty much be onto a winner, given that they’ve had so much time to study the segment (while not being present).
