The prototype of the new Nissan model surprised the exhaust system

In Brazil, the spies managed to photograph the harbinger of the next Crossover of the Japanese brand, which will be positioned a step below the new generation kicks. In the photograph, which the portal Motor1.com Brazil found on social networks, a car with an exhaust pipe is captured, which stretches across the rear bumper and sticks out so that the trunk door had to be opened. The pipe is fixed for the analysis of harmful emissions.

Journalists suggest that this is a prototype of a hybrid crossover, which is comparable by the X-Trail in size. The fact is that competitors in the person of Honda and Toyota in Brazil already have hybrid crossovers, Nissan is represented in the country only by fuel models. At the same time, the company’s arsenal has an E-Power hybrid technology, in which the ICE acts as a generator, and it is very popular: for example, the same X-Trail for hybrid modification in Mexico accounts for 15 percent of sales.
