Nissan Pulsar Euro Nismo Hatch Spied Ahead Of Paris Motor Show

Nissan’s European-market Pulsar hatch, an altogether different creature to the the model we’re offered in Australia, will soon debut in Nismo form.

This shot, snapped during a private presentation to current Nissan and Nismo owners, offers a first look at the powered-up hot hatch.

The revealing photo follows comments from former Nissan executive Andy Palmer in June, who hinted in an interview with the UK’s Autocar that a rival to Volkswagen’s Golf GTI might be in the works.

“It’s not something I’d like to confirm now, but would a C-segment hatch be the great place to have a Nismo? You might say so,” Palmer said.
