Although the MPV has been tested under heavy camouflage, earlier sightings already show the overall proportions quite clearly.

But Nissan has given this MPV a fresh look to set it apart from its alliance partner

Key Exterior Highlights

• A larger front grille with eye-catching hexagonal elements
• Newly shaped headlamp units for a sharper appearance
• C-shaped accents built into the front bumper to add more character
• Functional roof rails, making the MPV look more practical

These changes give the MPV a more aggressive and modern face while still keeping the well known silhouette of a compact family car. Nissan aims to give buyers a style that feels fresh yet familiar
