Visibility doesn't look like it's strongest suit, and that rear door handle is MILES in the air, but it looks pretty awesome for a B-segment CUV.


Competes with the Juke/Trax/HR-V


Rides on the new modular TNGA plarform for FWD cars that just came out on the new Prius.

lol I can't see that door handle location making it to production. Imagine having to open the door for your kids every time they got because they can't reach the handle.

Oh, well, :facepalm:

No one with small kids will buy this car, though I guess that's not really the target market from the looks of it.

Eh, the HR-V is the same size, and it also has the rear handle super high.

Also the previous Nissan Pathfinders and the current Armada, and those are specifically designed as family cars.

Great. Another eyesore on the road.

Makes the Camaro look like a Pacer by comparison. I hope it has a backup camera or you are parking by feel.

What is with this new trend with the kink at the rear pillar that Nissan started?

Automotive design schools basically only hire from like three schools in the entire world.


CCS (Detroit)

Art Center (Pasadena, CA)

or Coventry (UK)


So a lot of talent and ideas are bound to be similar.

I've kinda thought about getting a backup camera for parallel parking purposes...

Dislike the rear door handles and the name, but otherwise it's interesting.  I like that Toyota is taking some styling risks.

They've been in a war to out-ugly Honda for years. This isn't new.
