The Nissan Terrano is back as a rugged, plug-in hybrid Land Cruiser rival

This, but also have them bring back the VK (VK50 maybe?) and twin-turbo it for modern output. A lesser twin-turbo VR30 or whatever can be the entry engine. That'd make it a V-8 against competitors who've largely dropped it, such as the GX, and Infiniti's only real market these days is North America, which remains friendlier to the V-8 than if they had to accommodate the global market. Would also heavily distinguish it from the Nissan variant.

Of course, there's zero chance that happens.

Nissan hates money, I know this because they wont sell me a new dashboard for my 1994 pathfinder even though I'd pay 3.5 hundred dollars for it

The front end looks AI generated

The car doesn’t exist yet so it’s all a render

You're wrong on that - it exists, but it's not a production car yet, it's still in concept phase. Photos of it on display.

Certainly is promising...I'm looking forward to what the Xterra looks like, although I'm a little worried it will be a lot more brutalist than this, which starts treading a line between being too exaggerated and tastefully aggressive.

Stg we never get the cool PHEVs for the US market. Not this thing, no ranger PHEV, cupra leon, current gen 3 series/x3 PHEV, etc

The one Nissan vehicle that would sell in the US, yet won't make it here.

Looks like an aliexpress knock off, not a rival to LC.

That’s such a masculine heterosexual car. I love it!
