Nissan has officially confirmed reports that it will, in fact, be storming the LA Auto Show with a host of new vehicles. A total of three new models will be on hand, including the much talked-about 2011 Nissan Murano convertible (or "CrossCabriolet" in marketing-speak) and the debut of the production version of the all-electric Leaf. The third model is something more of a mystery. So far, all Nissan is saying is that it's a new sedan concept that sails under the Ellure banner. We're guessing some sort of EV hijinks are involved with that one.

Infiniti will also show off a raft of new metal, including the 2012 M Hybrid. Additionally, visitors to the LA show can expect to get their first in-person glimpses of the 2011 G25 Sedan and the IPL G Coupe. The 2010 LA Auto Show gets rolling on November 19 and runs through the 28th.

Well, the photo is definitely chopped and old. The story, however, is new. While the rumors existed before, this appears to be a bit more of a confirmation. Guess we'll have to wait for the show to find out for sure.

I'm not comfortable with cars that look like they're going to roll over in hard top form becoming convertibles.

The reason I say its not real is because...would Nissan really use a chopped picture that some kid made to showcase a car they are going to make ? :whistle:

No they wouldn't. But if they release info that they would be debuting a Murano CrossCabriolet, I wouldn't put it past autoblog to insert their own image to give readers an idea. I'm pretty certain Nissan wouldn't put any image out until they auto show when it is unveiled, save maybe a teaser or two.
