Remember the mystery Nissan model that was teased just a while ago? It's now here in the form of the Nissan Kicks concept which serves to preview an upcoming model designed specifically for the Brazilian market only. The car will make its world premiere very soon at the 2014 Sao Paulo motor show.
The concept measures in at 4,300 mm in length, is 1,800 mm wide and stands at 1,600 mm tall. Designed at Nissan's Global Design Centre in Japan, the Nissan Kicks concept is styled to reflect a car that "is designed to have the appearance of a striking premium car that captivates the look and to be a vehicle whose owners would be proud to own and drive," says vice president of Nissan's global design department, Shiro Nakamura.
A rather pronounced front bumper along with a bold V-shaped front grille further adds to the active, somewhat brutish persona. Smatterings of orange can be found on the roof and also as part of the wheel details ensure that the concept really sticks out, à la Citroen DS3 Racing.
What lies under the bonnet is anyone's guess at this point, with Nissan only willing to comment that the production version just might be sold outside of Brazil. Seeing as how everyone seems to be snapping up compact SUVs these days, that move seems more likely to happen than not.
