A car that reflects Nissan's Modern Living concept
A luxury medium-sized saloon
Refined elegance

The Bluebird Sylphy Preview embodies Nissans Modern Living concept, a modern expression of premium interior quality. This new, luxury medium-sized saloon blends this design concept with functionality all wrapped in a straight and refined exterior.

A luxury welcome
The Bluebird Sylphy Preview is designed and engineered around the concept of a luxury medium-sized saloon into which you would be proud to welcome guests. The interior is the latest iteration of Nissans Modern Living concept, popularized by the Teana luxury sedan and the Cube and Tiida compact cars.
An S-motion design gives exterior expression to this product concept. Distinctive S-shaped curves and are expressed in smooth and richly varied sculpted body lines. The large cabin with six windows creates a roomy and relaxing interior space.
S-motion is further reflected in a curved instrument panel, providing space around the driver and an open, airy space for the front passenger. With above-average knee room for this class of car, passengers can relax into cushioned comfort.
But the Bluebird Sylphy Preview is not just about style. A high level of functionality is built into this car. For example, a storage compartment incorporated into the center console which also doubles as an armrest. Opening the console lid 180 degrees to the rear provides access to the compartment, which is capable of neatly storing anything from a large handbag to a shopping bag.
Through this fusion of design and functionality, the Bluebird Sylphy Preview has been created to provide a dash of refined elegance. Overall length (mm) 4,610
Overall width (mm) 1,695
Overall height (mm) 1,510
Wheelbase (mm) 2,700
Seating capacity 5

me not likey. The wood like trim in the interior is too tacky looking without leather specifically. And exterior..... well i am not gonna go there.....
 
New Sentra??

could be, but bluebirds and altimas used to be the same car so it may be a new altima...i hope not, at the same time it prob isn't because with the 3rd gen altima i belive they started moving the altima away from being the samething as the bluebird interior to me looks like an old skool GXE the tan cloth with the fake wood trim
odd looking car none the less
 
the U13 was the first and last of the bluebirds that was badged as the altima in the US... the later altimas were completely unrelated to the U14 bluebird... poor sales of the U14 due to the fact that the bluebird has always been marketed as a sub-midsized car to fit in between the sunny and the cefiro (like the corona that fits in between the corolla and camry in toyota's case... but the corona sells)... same reason why the altimas had poor sales until the latest (3rd gen) came out... it was too small and too big at the same time.... the U14 was axed a few years ago... there's no U15... the bluebird sylphy came out sometime around 2001 or 2002 as a bluebird spinoff... as a cost cutting measure, the (current, not the new one about to come out) G10 bluebird sylphy was based completely off of the B15 sunny (sentra) platform... it even has the same ugly dashboard!

so... I won't be surprised if the next B16(?) sunny/sentra will look similar to that new (G11?) bluebird sylphy
 
oh ok thats right i forgot they were the u14 i didn't even realize they had come out with this new b15 related chasis
 
The current Altima 02-on is the L31 which shares its chassis with the 04 on Maxi A33, 03 on Murano, and the JDM Teana. This would make an ugly SE-R Spec V!
