As far as Nissan is concerned, it's no more than a design study but then they would say that. After all, there's few who doubt that Nissan is investigating new styles for an MPV.
Striking features incorporated in the Forum include wide-opening, sliding side doors, and front doors that open by up to 90 degrees.
In addition, the second row of seats swivels round so that occupants can enjoy the built-in entertainment and communications systems face-to-face.

No engine details have been released.
