A new era of electrification will soon begin - with Nissan readying its production lines for the IMx Concept. This platform will blend the rugged dimensions of a crossover with the sustainable performance of a hybrid, branding it unique among the Seattle market; and it will surely deliver sales as high as its projected drive-range.
As Hybrid Cars explains, the IMx Concept will bridge the gap between SUV functionality and EV efficiency. Anchored by a dual-motor powertrain - which will share similarities with the new LEAF, combining AC synchronous technology with a lithium-ion battery pack - this platform should achieve a staggering 380-mile range per single charge. An all-wheel-drive will ensure superior terrain navigation, while enhanced performance (429 HP and 516 lb.-ft of torque) will encourage pedal-to-the-metal fun. The five-door styling will also impress, offering class-leading cargo space. No official specs have been provided but critics anticipate up to 79 cu.-ft.
The IMx Concept will prove unlike any platform on the market - and Nissan further emphasizes this through dynamic styling. This electric crossover will boast a scalloped body, blending sheet-metal paneling with enlarged intake vents. Four-spoke wheels and flat-molded bumpers will deliver a streamlined effect, while slitted headlamps will bring LED illumination to every mile.
