The next year and a half will be an interesting period for
Nissan. The automaker has announced that it will launch five new models over the course of 15 months, starting with the
2013 Altima that
made its debut at the
New York Auto Show last week. What's next? Take a close look at the image above and those mysterious shapes under the white sheets aren't exactly tough to decipher.
Left to right, first up is clearly the
Versa hatchback, the five-door follower of the not-so-highly regarded sedan that launched late last year. Want another glimpse of what could be in store for the large-rumped Versa? Have a glance at its overseas cousin, the
Tiida. The North American model will no doubt be different, but the Tiida indeed previews what could be in store.
The next two models aren't really a surprise - that big crossover is the
Pathfinder that we've already seen in
just-about-done concept form, and the middle car is the midsize Altima sedan. Moving one more space to the right, there's a smaller CUV that is, without question, the next-generation
Rogue. Lastly, that's the new
Sentra hanging out at the far right. The next Sentra has already been tipped to receive an Altima-like front fascia, and that's immediately noticeable even under the white sheet.
The 2013 Pathfinder will go on sale later this year, following the launch of the new Altima. As for what's next, your guess is as good as ours. As
Car and Driver reports, the fact that Nissan has confirmed that one of these cars is the new Sentra makes us think it'll be the next one to arrive, not to mention the fact that it's the one most desperately in need of replacement.
