Which Model Next? Nissan To Expand Nismo Performance Branding Across Lineup

Nissan has promised "a number of Nismo models over a number of years" to follow the launch of its initial Juke Nismo and 370Z Nismo models.

Sales and marketing vice president Paul Wilcox said Nissan was committed to making Nismo an "accessible performance brand". "Any Nismo model won't offer excessive cost – we want to make our models affordable and appeal to a wide audience," he said. "We'll start with Juke and then launch into future models. Nissan has performance credentials."

I really wish they would pay more attention to the Maxima. Seems like a good platform for an AWD beast.

3 cars come to mind, 2 of which don't exist or need to be brought back.

1. Maxima
2. Entry level coupe...aka 240sx
3. Serious Off Road 4x4 Truck, like the old red/white/blue truck from the 80's/90s

Though I would love to see a Nismo Maxima, I do not think it will be one any time soon.

These are the Nissans that will probably get a Nismo version:

1. Altima
2. Titan
3. Sentra/Rogue
4. Juke/Versa
