World Debut For Nissan's Sport Sedan Concept
Nissan celebrates its 80th anniversary this year and it is doing so with the world premiere of the Nissan Sport Sedan Concept at the 2014 NAIAS in Detroit. The Sport Sedan Concept, a design study with a particular focus on the next generation design and sporty style, was created to embody the importance of a true sports sedan. The exterior of the Sport Sedan Concept is marked by low, wide proportions, with a lowered hood line and reduced ground clearance compared to the traditional sedans. The 'V-Motion' movement of the front end flows from the dramatic chromed grille up through the hood. The front of the Sport Sedan Concept features large LED boomerang headlights, with a deeply scooped front fascia and wide sloped windshield.
There is a projection of motion, even when the car is standing still. It rides on custom 21-inch aluminium-alloy wheels mounted with low-profile 275/30R21 tires. The distinctive silhouette blends smoothly into the rear design, which is capped by the high deck, large chrome trunk accent and wide, deeply scooped rear fascia. The exterior features a unique 'Strad Amber' paint that was inspired by the craftsmanship and rich finish of noted classic violins. The elaborate candy color paint finish is achieved through application of an orange amber topcoat over a base of gold paint, creating a distinctive depth and bespoke richness.
The Sport Sedan Concept’s interior also offers cues to future production designs. Premium materials are found throughout, with the use of diamond-shaped graphics on the quilted seats, stitching and panels enhancing the sense of dynamic motion. Rather than traditional flat surfacing, the diamond treatment adds three-dimensionality. The edgy and geometric look was inspired by modern furniture, apparel and accessories. The interior also features high-contrast colors and facet metallic accents. All these aspects finely express Nissan’s individual authenticity and modernity.
The front-wheel drive Sport Sedan Concept is powered by a 300+ horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine backed by a sport-tuned Xtronic CVT and features an innovative suspension layout with performance dampers.
