Pathfinder Concept: A Vision of the Future

You might have heard whispers about the new Nissan Pathfinder, unveiled at the Shanghai Autoshow. This bold and striking SUV represents a bold new direction for Nissan in terms of design. The sharp lines, distinctive grille, and integrated light bar spanning the width of the front grille make it impossible to ignore. But what if we told you that this design could transcend its SUV roots and take the form of a double cab bakkie? Intrigued? We certainly are!

Theottle’s Frontier Concept: A Stroke of Genius

Enter Theottle, a talented YouTuber and concept artist who dared to dream beyond the conventional. Drawing inspiration from the Pathfinder concept’s aesthetic prowess, Theottle embarked on a creative journey to reimagine the US-only Frontier model. Using images of the Pathfinder as a canvas, Theottle crafted an artistic vision that combines the Pathfinder’s allure with the practicality of a mid-sized double cab bakkie.

The Frontier Concept: A Visual Feast

Now, let’s dive into the details of this Frontier concept. Picture the smooth yet pronounced body lines of the Pathfinder concept seamlessly merging with the physique of a 2023 Renault Oroch 4X4. The result? A mid-sized double cab that exudes Chinese-market-inspired style. The horizontal grille, accentuated by an integrated light bar, creates a commanding presence that’s impossible to ignore.

But it doesn’t stop there. When it comes to the rear design, Theottle takes inspiration from the local Nissan Navara, giving the Frontier concept a modern twist. The vertical taillights are replaced with more conservative, squared C-clamp-styled taillights, harmoniously complementing the shaved tailgate design.

Choices, Choices: US Frontier or Theottle’s Vision?

Now, it’s time to pose the million-dollar question: Which version do you prefer? The real-world, US-only Nissan Frontier boasts a traditional styling reminiscent of the current-generation Navara, with its own unique charm. On the other hand, there’s Theottle’s imaginative Frontier concept, built upon the DNA of the Pathfinder, showcasing a more daring and distinctive look.

It’s a tough call, and we can’t wait to see where Nissan takes us in the future. Whether it’s the rugged and reliable US Frontier or the stylish and unconventional Frontier concept, Nissan’s commitment to innovation is clear. Stay tuned with Group1 Nissan for more updates on this intriguing possibility, and let us know which design you’d love to see on the horizon. The future is looking brighter than ever for Nissan, and we’re thrilled to be a part of this journey with you!
