The Woj Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2008/07/datsun-xlink-concept-compact-4door.html Well it's not Nissan sanctioned, but the idea of a resurrecting Datsun as a Scion competitor is quite interesting.

rustrocket Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 The ass on it looks like a cross between a solstice and the most recent toyota solara, the roofline looks prius, and the front looks like some sort of audi ripoff or audi/dodge mix. Hmm...I dont like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dat240zg Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I think it'd be appropriate to say Whaaat Kind Of Crack Are They Smoking? That thing is butt fugly! Sheez. Have people lost the ability to design truly beautiful cars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 from the article:While we’d have to disagree with the re-introduction of the Datsun brand into the automotive scene, the XLink sounds like a pretty good idea overall. Maybe someone at Nissan should take a closer look at this concept. oddly enough, I have the exact opposite sentiment about this. Re-introducing Datsun as a scion competitor would be awesome, and I and others have promoted that idea here before...just not with this pile.

woldson Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Seems like if you rearend someone in that car you would not notice much of a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rturbo 930 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 That car is just awful! Sheez. Have people lost the ability to design truly beautiful cars?It would appear that way. Seems good looking modern cars are pretty rare now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsicard Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Not certain about the body design, but a diesel hybrid SHOULD be the (near) future. It should use 4th or 5th generation Lithium Ion Batteries and BioDiesel fuel. Additionally, it should have a 220Volt AC plug in for recharging of the batteries which can be used solely for in-town use. The Diesel portion can be used for highway driving. Any comments?
