New Nissan Trademark Application Has Us Excited
Will some elements of the Nissan IDx live on?
Nissan has filed a trademark application for “NISSAN IMX,” suggesting a new concept is in development. The new trademark is a bit similar to the IDx Concept, which although it was well-received, never headed to production. At the time when Nissan confirmed the IDx got axed, the company did say some of its styling may live on in a front-wheel-drive sports car. Could the Nissan IMX trademark bring that to fruition?

It’s likely the Nissan IMX trademark will be formatted to “IMx” if it is used, just like how IDx was formatted. Unfortunately there isn’t much else to the trademark application, but it is for *takes deep breath* “Vehicles for locomotion by land, air, water or rail and structural parts and fittings therefor, namely, automobiles; electric vehicles, namely, electric automobiles, wagons, trucks, vans, sport utility vehicles, buses, recreational vehicles (RV) namely, campers, motor homes and fifth-wheel trailers; sports cars, racing cars, bicycles, lorries, fork lift trucks, including towing tractors, and structural parts and fittings therefor; Brake pads for land vehicles; Vehicle bumpers; Safety devices for land vehicles, namely, airbags; mudguards; Vehicle accessories, namely, air pumps and license plate frames.”
