Remember Nissan’s Kicks Concept unveiled last year in Brazil?

At the time, the automaker said it previewed a small crossover for the local market, but some people believe this design could be relevant to more markets worldwide.

Photoshop manipulator Remco Meulendijk is one of them and his latest renderings prove it. He set out to envision the next Nissan Juke based on the Kicks Concept, although there are also voices who believe the second-generation Juke will feature design cues from the Gripz study unveiled earlier this week at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

If you care for a personal opinion, I believe the Gripz suits the character of the Juke better than the Kicks study. There’s no doubt that the latter concept looks good, but it lacks that quirkiness the Juke owes its success to. I for one can’t wait to see a rendering of the next Juke based on the Gripz study.
