Nissan discontinues Xterra for 2016 model year - LeftLane News

The move was quietly confirmed by a recent announcement detailing Nissan's 2016 lineup, which omits the decade-old SUV. "Xterra, one of the boldly designed vehicles that helped reinvigorate the Nissan brand at the beginning of the century, will go out of production after a highly successful 15-year run," the company notes. Xterra sales experienced a slight revival in July with sales up by 11. 5 percent compared to the same month last year, however collective deliveries in the first seven months of the year fell by more than 25 percent. Despite the rising popularity of SUVs in the US market, Nissan has not confirmed any intention to develop a direct successor to the Xterra. Source: www.leftlanenews.com
