DIG OR DISS: NISMO Mashup

15597652501373838523Yes, it doesn’t only happen in music.

Nissan has recently unveiled concept designs of NISMO hybrids, including a Maxima GT-R Nismo and Sentra 370Z Nismo. Earlier in February, the Japanese car manufacturer also released images of a Nissan Leaf GT-R NISMO hybrid to announce a “MASHUP” campaign on its Facebook page.

The campaign falls in line with reports about Nissan’s plans to offer a Nismo variant for all models so the range will be expanded beyond the five current offerings: GT-R, 370Z, Juke, Micra and Note. Next on the agenda are the Qashqai and Pulsar which will allegedly be introduced sometime next year with a 1.8-ltier four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine rated at around 266 bhp (198 kW). The Sentra will also receive a similar treatment as previewed at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show with the Sentra Nismo concept.

While the company says these design concepts are only for fun — meaning no chance of seeing it in the actual production line — which of these do you think should be seen on roads?
