The automotive blogosphere is buzzing this week about Autocar's quote (https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/nissan-leaf-suv-will-be-breakthrough-model-cracks-mainstream) from Mamoru Aoki, Nissan's Europe-based design chief. "We have the new LEAF, but I think the production version of the IMx concept will become a breakthrough model," said Aoki. "The IMx is not just a concept car. In a few years, it will appear."
Aoki is referring to the 380-mile all-electric IMx concept, which debuted in Tokyo in October. As a designer, he played up how the EV's flat floor will create more interior space, while the dashboard could be pushed closer to the windscreen.
