Anyone heard about this:
"Shown in Tokyo and Detroit, the XVL concept has production intentions - the question is where it will fit in the model range. We've heard both G20 replacement and late J30 replacement. Dimensionally, the XVL is closer to the G20 than the I30, suggesting that the original G20 rumor heard from within Nissan is true. (XVL is about five inches longer and two inches wider than the G20.) What we do know is that the upscale XVL bundles the latest technologies and design concepts into a luxurious sedan. Built on a new corporate rear-drive platform, the XVL promises performance with a direct-injection V-6 gasoline engine mated to a continuously variable transmission. The distinct shape cheats the wind with a low 0.28 drag coefficient. For reference: length 182.5 inches, width 68.3 inches, 57.7 inches, and wheelbase 111.2 inches. On sale spring 2002."
