Front lights were fully CNC machined cans and lenses, painted and polished with vacuum metalised reflectors. The "wave" design directional indicator is cast PU from silicone tooling. The light source is a combination of Superbrite LEDs around a Luxion Star for the main beam and a flexible LED array for the "halo" side lights.
Finally, the innovative rear lamp units were machined from ABS, vacuum metalised and lacquered. The lenses were machined from acrylic with the internal lens tinted red with lacquer and the external lens smoked. Illumination is via optical fibres with a single central light source. The fibres feed up through a loom with 127 individual strands per side, emitting through custom made tubular holders to position the light just below the surface of the lens.
Production of the Qazana, securing many manufacturing and supply chain jobs in the North East of England, is due to start soon at Nissan's Sunderland plant with release in September 2010. For more information please click here
