Nissan Gripz Concept to make its global debut in Frankfurt

FRANKFURT – Designed to build on Nissan's pioneering Crossover leadership, Nissan's Gripz Concept will make its global premiere at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Inspiration for the Nissan Gripz Concept came from the legendary 240Z desert racers as well as the sleek two-wheel world of road cycling. The design explores a new sporty direction for a Crossover concept and was conceived to create an innovative new driving sensation.

The world premiere will take place at the Nissan stand on September 15, 2015. Stay tuned for more innovative Crossover thinking from Nissan.
