). It's a shame because, with the low $20k pricing speculation, this seemed like the perfect affordable daily driving car. I love the look.
Nissan originally came out and said they'd produce this car in its RWD form. They then backed off this claim, with profitability as the reason. That turned into Nissan hinting at a FWD version and, as of last year, backing off the concept completely to focus on other areas.
This car may hit production at some point (unlikely as a RWD car), but I wouldn't hold my breath (I'd sooner expect the new Z than this car). This car is very much a concept--nothing more. Even if it does hit production, I'd guess it won't look anything like the concept.
The Nissan IDx Is Reportedly Really, Really Dead
Nissan Can't Figure Out How To Make A RWD Car Cheaply Enough
Nissan Steps Back From IDx And Q50 Eau Rouge To Focus On Boring Junk
All of those articles are 6 months or older than my article.
And it's all jalopnik sourced. Jalopnik ALWAYS writes negativity when it comes to Nissan. I'm goi g to check other sources and see what I dig up.
