Teens Design $9,000 Nissan Concept

A team of four Brooklyn high school students recently won a contest to design a $9,000 Nissan aimed directly at their generation. The slightly boxy, BMW 2002-esque Pure concept was the result. Unfortunately, since it’s just a design concept, nothing about features has been mocked up. We’re wondering why Nissan would aim at a $9,000 basic-transport car. Could a no-frills econobox — with teen-influenced style — be on the way?
