Nissan Announces Plans for 2012 North American International Auto Show

The worldwide debut of two concept vehicles will highlight Nissan’s presence at the upcoming 2012 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. An all electric van concept, which underscores Nissan’s leadership in zero emissions vehicles and the Nissan Pathfinder preview concept, which provides a sneak peek at the next generation of one of Nissan’s longest running nameplates in the U.S., will be unveiled during the NAIAS press preview days, beginning Monday, January 9.

In addition to full access to Nissan’s global concepts during both days of the show, media interviews will be available with Nissan team members. Nissan Chief Executive Officer, Carlos Ghosn will also be the opening keynote speaker at the Automotive News World Congress on Tuesday, Jan. 10 in Detroit.

Nissan NAIAS Highlights:

  • The Pathfinder Concept, which previews the all-new look, style and attitude that Nissan will bring to the SUV segment when the next-generation Pathfinder goes on sale in fall 2012 at Nissan dealers nationwide.
  • Nissan’s innovative electric van concept. This concept previews a future production version of a full electric vehicle designed to provide businesses or families with flexible, roomy cargo space, while offering a dramatic CO2 footprint reduction.
  • A Nissan NV outfitted as a “Food Truck” with a local Detroit flair showcases the vehicle’s flexibility and user-friendly features, but acts as a culinary cornerstone for media hospitality throughout both press days.
  • Monday evening – Nissan media reception at Cheli’s Chili Bar in Downtown Detroit from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. with a special guest and special announcement – Media credentials required for admission.
