The Skyline moniker is about to turn 70, as Nissan has been selling cars under this name since 1957. Over the decades, it’s been used for just about every body style imaginable, from sedans and coupes to pickups and even a crossover. The Japanese automaker simplified the lineup for the outgoing thirteenth-generation model to a sedan, and its replacement will also arrive with four doors and a proper trunk.
Nissan first offered a glimpse of the all-new Skyline back in April, and it won’t be long before the sports sedan breaks cover. CEO Ivan Espinosa told Nikkei Asia the wraps will come off sometime this winter. The next-generation model certainly can’t arrive soon enough, considering the current car has been around for more than a decade. Yes, the V37-generation model launched in 2014, so it’s well past its prime.
