Nissan has unveiled a very subtle teaser of a potential autonomous car concept that will be formally unveiled at the 2018 Detroit Motor Show.
The 42-second long teaser video (below) features the slogan, “imagine a world in which strength is used to protect”. While it’s hard to decipher the message, ‘protect’ could suggest autonomous safety systems while ‘strength’ would be in keeping with a large SUV of the kind that underpins the American passenger car market.
The final part of the video features another bold slogan, “tradition is a bridge to the future.” This could be a hint that upcoming Nissan concept car might be based on familiar design cues that we have seen on Nissan models before. Whatever form the car takes, we can expect it to showcase the brand’s future self-driving safety technology.
A hybrid or pure electric powertrain is also likely, given the manufacturer’s recent launch of the Leaf hatchback and its array of electric concepts at the Tokyo Motor Show in 2017. At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Nissan also showcased its ‘Brain-to-Vehicle’ autonomous technology, which uses your brainpower to perform a driving manoeuvre quicker than you can react.
All of this is up in the air at the moment given the vague nature of the teaser video, but you can expect the unnamed Nissan vehicle at the Detroit Motor Show, which kicks off next week.
What do you think the Nissan concept could be? Let us know below...
