So this was the truck under the covers Nissan was teasing.

From the article:
It turns out it was the 2015 Nissan Navara/Frontier that Nissan was hiding under covers all this time. While still not officially revealed, two unofficial photos of the new pickup have been leaked, which was spotted completely uncovered in Thailand.

The back of the cab and the door lines look a bit funky to me.

At least from the pictures it looks somewhat truck-like. Given Nissan's moves lately I was afraid it would get "Pathfindered" into a uni-body CVT crossover of some sort. Maybe it still will, but the pictures give me hope at least.

I know there's almost no chance of getting a long bed, crew cab, manual transmission - but at this point "still a truck" is a good start.

These pictures don't look as curvy as the under-wraps ones did, but it might just be the angle of the nose shot. Certainly still less square than your typical US-market pickup, but nothing as carlike like Eastern-market Rangers, Colorados, or Hiluxes.

I am getting tired of truck tail lights that exist more on the side of the truck than the rear. It looks bad and serves no functional purpose.

Definitely something weird at the back rear door seal/gap. The upper doorframe reminds me of the Armada, but the way the door seems to protrude from the bodywork down lower is strange.

No manual, no care. That truck is 10 kinds of horrible with an automatic.

Maybe just because that is a K2 model. The 4 door will most certainly look different.

FROM: KAWEE THANAWATDEJ

Dear Sirs and Madams,

Regarding the leaked images of Nissan Navara/Frontier which we contacted you earlier, we really appreciate some of you who helped deleting the pictures from your sites, and understand that some of you may not have seen our emails yet.

Today, Nissan Global just released the 4th teaser video of the series which focuses on the exterior design of the new Nissan Navara. You may find the video from the link below.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC5yQOUE ... 0No0Reak-g[/youtube]

We would appreciate if you can help replace the leaked images of our car on your sites with this official teasing video which represents the image our new coming car better, with richer content, and more interesting definitely.

Thank you for your kind support on this. And if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Best regards,

Kawee Thanawatdej

Nissan says the new Navara’s high-strength chassis and suspension have been engineered to “take the punishment of intense daily usage”, and also claims a reduction in its turning circle to improve its agility and manoeuvrability.

Technology systems include electronic stability control, active brake limited slip, hill start assist, hill descent control, and shift-on-the-fly 4×4, which can be engaged while the vehicle is in motion.

The new Nissan Navara will be offered in both rear- and all-wheel-drive, with manual and automatic transmissions, and with at least one diesel engine.

The new-generation model will replace both the 10-year-old D40 Navara and the ancient D22 model, which first launched in 1997, with single-, space- and dual-cab, and chassis and pick-up body styles all planned.

In a statement, Nissan Australia said information on local specifications, engines, transmissions and model grades would be announced closer to the Navara’s introduction to our market.

Is Nissanized a word yet? If so then I think it means the opposite of rugged.

This looks like the Mallfinder gave birth to a pickup.
