Nissan has revealed more photos of the new minivan named Quest, that will be a 2011 generation. This comes after a rather sloppy one photo feed to the press from Nissan,  so this quality and complete enough set of images is more than good news, as it will be probably all we’ll see of the Quest 2011 until the official release at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November this year.

2011 Nissan Quest minivan teased some more

The Japanese automaker is still keeping details on the new Quest all hush-hush, but it is almost a certainty that the next generation minivan from Nissan will be coming with cool with sliding rear-doors and that it  will be powered by Nissan’s venerable 3.7-liter V6 engine. We do like the elegant interior, the masculine front grille and we’d also note the 3in1 swap display of the clocks as an useful design. The rest is what anyone can see, and judge from their point of view, in the photos. Full specs will be posted once Nissan releases them.

Prices? No exact figures are available for the time being, but the price range will probably be in league with the targeted competitors: redesigned for the 2011MY Toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey minivans, to name a few. Press release from Nissan included.
