The Nissan 126X is a concept car built by Nissan in 1970.
The 126X features an angular, wedge design like many other concept cars of the time. It has a strip of lights along the hood that light up with either 3 red, 2 yellow, or 5 green lights depending on whether the vehicle is braking, at constant speed, or accelerating respectively. Similar strips were also included on the rear sides. It also features a front hinged canopy door that encompasses the roof, windscreen and the panels down to the sills.[3][4] The car was controlled by airplane-inspired levers and also featured a backup camera.[5]
