  • Final Nissan Altima Teaser [VIDEO]

    Nissan-Altima-final-thumbFive teasers for the five timer. Here’s the final pre-New York video of the Nissan Altima and the first impression is: “Oh dear, it’s more than 8 seconds long!!” A lot longer in fact… 20 seconds. This time we get to see a full view of the Altima and the gauges and everything. We even have some genuine information about it.

    The Advanced Drive-AssistTM Display (that thing between the dials) is there to help you stay focused on the road. Not sure how it does that exactly but presumably staring at the dashboard is better than shuffling trough all the knobs and buttons on the center console. You get your sat nav streamed on it, it’s a phone display as well and a trip computer and who knows what more.

    Something more useful might be the sole camera mounted somewhere at the back. It will monitor the road for lane changes, objects at the back and objects within the blind spots.

    It’s been a long journey…of short videos and, although you might not want to, you can retrace it with this, this and this and why not this.

    The reveal is coming next week as we dive into another motoring event – the New York International Auto Show. Coming soon.

  • Lexus ES Teaser – Debut at NYIAS

    Lexus-ES-thumbSo, this year’s New York International Auto Show will become the venue of the descending sedans…from Japan. First there’s the Nissan Altima with its dreary ad/teaser campaign. Then yesterday, Toyota announced their plans to reveal a “stunning” sedan. And now… Toyota tease another Sedan. Well, I’m saying Toyota, but I actually mean Lexus – It’s the new, sixth generation of the ES.

    There’s not much to be said really. We are looking at a typical spindle grilled, LED laden thing. Lexus say that the new ES is bound to deliver a “new dynamic driving experience“ yet, if they stick to the old 3.5 V6 Toyota engine used in the previous generation, that would be questionable. It’s not a bad engine by any means but the aspect of “new” is what bothers us here. Luckily, rumor has it that now the sixth gen range may get a hybrid drivetrain. While, that makes us hardly excited, it is a glimmer of diversity.

    The Lexus press conference will take place on Wednesday, April 4th at 11:20 a.m. EDT at the New York International Auto Show. Then, the Lexus ES will be all ours to look at. Until then we can carry on with our lives.

  • New Toyota Sedan Teased

    Toyota-sedan-teaser-thumbNissan won’t be the only company that shows back ends as teasers for the New York International Auto Show. Here’s something from Toyota as well. Supposedly it will be a “stunning” sedan that has been U.S.-designed. The global premiere will take place in the Galleria room within the Jacob Javits Center at 10:30 a.m. EDT on April 5, 2012.

    Toyota are being quite quiet about it so we’ll just have to guess. “Elegant yet athletic” they say. Well, this sketch here does suggest the latter. Obviously, those wheel arches won’t be that full in real life, or will they? Whichever the case, the teaser does seem to work. We are deeply interested now of what this might be. That further works for the argument that one doesn’t need silly 8-second videos that show passing florescent lights over something, in order to inspire curiosity.

    On the day of the reveal a live-streaming video chat with the designers is being scheduled. The public and the media can forward direct inquiries about this sedan via Facebook or Twitter.

  • Fourth 2013 Nissan Altima Teaser

    Nissan-Altima-teaser-thumbYet another teaser from Nissan – thrilling. This time we get a verification that the upcoming Altima has doors… four of them (or two on one side). Then they say that they have an image as well, but it’s just a still shot from the video. What good is that?

    The company’s marketing strategy really is an unorthodox one. First we had a teaser which was sort of uninformative, then there was a second one which was ok-ish. The third one started to feel banal and now this. For how long do we have to piece together all of that information. At the very least, we would have to wait for the New Your Auto show which is due in April. This Altima will be the fifth-generation from a family of mid-sized, sensible saloons. It better be good as the fuss about is seems tremendous.

    Enjoy the video…I guess:

  • 2013 Nissan Altima Teaser: take another look [VIDEO]

    2013 Nissan Altima (rear)Nissan brand has just released their third video clip which offers additional insight on the bold new design of long-expected new 2013 Nissan Altima. The vehicle is going to make its world debut at the 2012 New York Auto Show in April. The brand however, didn’t release much information about their upcoming product, but on the contrary teases the public with “teaser” video clips and thus making the interest grow. What Nissan has done until the present moment is to disclose two exclusive video clips of the new car, which show it from two different perspectives: from the front and from above. There seems to be a lot of gossip around the new Altima and how it is going to perform in terms of fuel efficiency, power, etc. What we can undoubtedly expect is a premium design and technologies focused on enhancing the driving experience. What we see in this video is an additional glimpse – this time on the rear. No doubt, that thus image gives as a hint of the all-new Altima’s design and forward-thinking innovations: Nissan promises that they will bring outstanding fuel economy, premium design inside and out, and driver-focused technologies to this midsize sedan.
