Guillaume Cartier, Nissan’s vice president of sales and marketing-- is planning a new mainstream C-segment hatchback that will take on the entire range of V.W models due in 2014. At the beginning of this year, in the reveal of the Invitation concept, product planning chief, Andy Palmer- told journalists that the forthcoming C-segment hatch would feature a few styling cues from that concept.
“The face is a little bit left field, a little bit edgy, you'll be familiar with it; it’ll evoke something from the past." This is from Mr Cartier. "When we went out and did our research we found that there were lots of customers who would never buy a crossover. So we knew that while we had the Juke and the Qashqai, we also needed a traditional B-segment model (the Nissan Note) and a C-segment hatchback.”
