14 Apr
Summary
- Nissan teases the 2028 Skyline, returning after a 14-year absence.
- The new model features a design inspired by the Hyper Force concept.
- This Skyline will be exclusive to the Japanese market.
Nissan has unveiled the first official teaser for its next-generation Skyline sports sedan, scheduled for a 2028 debut. This marks a significant return for the iconic nameplate after a 14-year gap since the current model's introduction.
The teasers showcase a bold front design, influenced by the 2023 Nissan Hyper Force concept. It includes vertically oriented daytime running lights and a sculpted bonnet bearing a new, sleek 'S' logo. The rear design pays homage to the brand's heritage with quad tail lamps and classic 'Skyline' lettering on the fender.
True to its lineage, the new Skyline will be sold exclusively in the Japanese market under the Nissan badge. While an Infiniti-badged variant might be offered internationally, official confirmation is pending. This Japan-only strategy highlights Nissan's commitment to its domestic enthusiasts for premium models.
Details regarding the powertrain remain undisclosed, but speculation suggests high-performance configurations potentially influencing future GT-R models. The Skyline's revival is part of Nissan's broader Vision event, underscoring a renewed focus on driver-centric vehicles.
