The Nissan Urge was shown at the 2006 North American International
Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The Urge is a concept designed
for the Xbox generation, and built for the gadget loving
young male. Featuring motorcycle inspired styling the
Nissan Urge is an entertainment console on wheels.
The influence of motorcycles on the Urge's styling can
be seen in the extended wheel arches which have been designed
to look similar to the wheel covers found on bikes. The
open T-bar roof and transparent door panels enhance the
open air feeling associated with motorcycle riding.
Inside the Nissan Urge is the main feature, a fully integrated
Xbox console complete with Project Gotham Racing 3 is
controlled by the same steering
wheel and pedals used to control the real car. Fortunately
and for obvious safety reasons the Xbox can only be used
when the Urge is parked up. The visual display for the
console comes from a 7 inch LCD display which drops down
from the Urges rear view mirror.
Another, more useful feature of the Nissan Urge is the
fact that the owners mobile phone can be used as an intelligent
key.
Nissan has no intention of producing the Urge, but have
remarked that some features of the car may find their
way into future youth orientated sports models.
