Power often eludes the crossover market - with these big-bodied beasts tailored for comfort instead of performance, emphasizing open cabins and wide fenders. Speed proves an afterthought.

With the release of the IMx Concept, Nissan will change this.



As The Drive explains, the IMx Concept - which is tentatively scheduled for 2020 - will propel the crossover market to dizzying heights. Anchored by a dual-power system (with each axle mated to an electric motor), this platform should yield 429 HP and 515 lb.-ft of torque. Oversized all-season tires will promote superior traction; while sheet metal paneling will reduce performance strain, offering an aerodynamic design that will provide smoother accelerations. The meticulously constructed interior will also boast flexible plastics and laminated woods, further reducing the platform’s overall curb weight.

When these elements combine, they will allow the IMx to dominate the crossover market - with its 0 to 60 rev expected to be less than seven seconds. This will ensure a first-place finish against Ford, Toyota, and Honda.

The IMx Concept will redefine SUVs in Seattle… and we can’t wait to see this platform roaring down the lane. To learn more about it (including potential scheduling dates and further specs) contact our dealership today.
