Nissan, Renault and\u00a0Mercedes-Benz have revealed that they will jointly develop a new mid-size pick-up truck.<\/p>\n

The companies have worked in partnership for a number of years and already share a number of commercial vehicle platforms. For example, the cheerful Renault Kangoo van-derived MPV can also be bought in certain countries, including the UK, as the Mercedes Citan instead.<\/p>\n

MERCEDES REVIVES THE MAYBACH NAME (AGAIN!)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Nissan\u2019s expertise extends to the pick-up truck segment where globally it is the world\u2019s second largest producer. Since 1933, the company has sold over 14 million one-ton pick-ups, therefore it seems like a perfect fit.<\/p>\n

Nissan is currently developing the next generation of its own NP300 pick-up truck and it\u2019s understood that it will share a number of platform features with the Mercedes but will be engineered by Daimler to \u201cmeet the specific needs of its customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, by sharing the costs of development, the partnership is also going to enable Renault to launch its first pick-up truck too.<\/p>\n

The French company promises that the finished vehicle, due to go on sale in 2016, will follow its own design philosophy.<\/p>\n

The new car, which is expected to debut within the next three years will be sold initially in Europe, Australia and South Africa.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
