Nissan NCS
-
"The NCS is not a minivan, SUV or station wagon. It's a hybrid between a car and everything else," Jerry Hirshberg, President of Nissan Design International, says. "We have attempted with the NCS to reinvent the car." The NCS (New Concept Sedan) has a rear seat sunroof and locates the main HVAC vents at the top of the A-pillars. Interior space is in abundance. Theater-style seating can give way to folded flat 50/50 split rear seats. The rear cargo area conceals a storage compartment that is accessed via a bi-fold floor panel. NCS is about three inches taller than a midsize sedan, yet it is shorter than current Nissan Maxima. Its powerplant is a 142-kW (190 hp) SOHC V6 engine.
