(02.08.2012 , CHICAGO) Three key future Nissan vehicles – the all-new 2013 Nissan NV200 compact cargo van, the revised 2013 Nissan 370Z sports car and the Pathfinder Concept, a preview of the re-imagined 2013 Nissan Pathfinder – share the spotlight at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show, which runs Feb. 10 – 19 at McCormick Place.



“The Chicago Metro area is a one of Nissan’s top markets, making it the ideal location for the North American debuts of the all-new Nissan NV200 and the updated 2013 Nissan 370Z,” said Al Castignetti, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc. “We’re also excited to show the dramatic Pathfinder Concept – giving show attendees a preview of the next-gen evolution of one of our most popular Chicagoland vehicles, the Nissan Pathfinder.”

2013 Nissan 370Z
The new 2013 Nissan 370Z is scheduled to go on sale at Nissan dealers nationwide next June. Updates for the new model year include a refreshed front fascia with vertical LED daytime running lights, revised 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels (Sport Package equipped models), new 18-inch wheels for 370Z Coupe, red-finished brake calipers (Sport Package equipped models), Euro-tuned shock absorbers (Sport Package equipped models), and two new exterior colors – Magma Red and Midnight Blue. The NISMO 370Z also adds a new Bose® Premium Audio Package with two additional speakers and two subwoofers, premium gun metallic dark-finish 19-inch wheels, and Nissan GT-R style high-rigidity brake hoses and performance brake fluid.

“Since the original 1970 Z® was first introduced, our goal has always been to keep the design moving forward. The changes for 2013 go a long way in enhancing its dynamic appearance inside and out – keeping it fresh and exciting,” said Castignetti.

The 2013 Nissan 370Z will once again be available in Coupe, Roadster and NISMO Z configurations.
