1995 Nissan CQ-X

CQ stands for "Comfort Quality". The CQ-X is a FWD vehicle using a 2-Liter I4 with 165hp. Aluminum was widely used in the construction of the CQ-X. The interior sported multiple airbags, turn lights set into rearview mirrors, a navigation system, and even a system that will attempt to wake a sleeping driver.


"Future performance for family use."


The CQ-X is aimed at life in the years 200X. They matched the expected huge differences in future traffic systems. Together with safety, improvement in fuel consumption, and human interface. This is a medium-class front-engine front-drive sedan pursued thoroughly to the above points. This model was moved forward and developed on the AQ-X concepts published in 1993.


Exploring possibilities of the car for the new age. Nissan proposes visions of future life through the car.


The CQ-X creates the future in its package. In addition to remaining in the top class among Japanese cars, large trunk room (VDA method of measurement) and strict collision safety conditions are considered. A rational style was achieved in a reduced overall length yet shows increases in overall height and trunk. In consequence, although limited in body size, a comfortable, roomy interior space that caters to long-distance drives is secured.


Interior Design The interior was designed so that four adults could travel in safety and comfort. Not only for the CQ-X, but this is also an important point for the interior design of any car. Roomy interior space is acquired by using a long wheelbase and enough interior height while expecting changes to the human build looking to the future. In addition to adopting new generation ergonomic seats and a built-in child seat, an open-air feeling is pursued, such as in the high hip point of the rear seat. Furthermore, NISSAN has developed a new interior style that separates visual and operational systems using a mechanism analysis of vision, touch, and hearing senses.
