The new generation of Nissan Skyline can become a crossover

The Japanese company officially confirmed the development of the cult model of the following generation. At the same time, according to the manufacturer’s strategy, the developers do not disclose the form-factor of the future car. Insiders report that the brand can abandon the classic sedan in favor of a crossover or other body that will be popular in a particular world market.

Currently, the Nissan Skyline is sold only in Japan and is an Infiniti Q50. In other markets, the company deduced the car from production. Experts believe that against the backdrop of the increased popularity of crossovers and electric vehicles, a new generation culture is unlikely to remain a classic sedan.

In favor of this opinion, the brand accelerated the process of car development. Now 37 months are allocated for the creation of new models, only 30 months for derivatives. In addition, the manufacturer reduced from 13 to 7 the number of platforms, as well as simplified the configuration of components in the manufacture of machines. Thus, Skyline in the usual sense will probably remain an exclusive model for the Japanese market.

At the same time, some experts believe that Nissan can still release a new generation of classic Skyline into foreign markets to demonstrate an example of preserving traditions. At the same time, the final decision of the manufacturer will depend on the global automobile trends.

In October last year, a rare Skyline GT-R R32 was hijacked from Nissan headquarters. The 1991 compartment was stolen from the parking lot of the company’s head office in Melbourne.
