Minivan sales collapsed from more than 1.1 million in 2004 to a little over 400,000 in 2009. The number of players in the game has dropped as well, with Ford and GM backing out years ago and Hyundai following suit for 2010—yeah, we didn’t notice, either. But the near-dormant segment is receiving a solid shake-up for 2011, with five of America’s remaining breadboxes being massively upgraded or completely redesigned. Of all of them, none went through a more thorough metamorphosis than the Nissan Quest.

Although Honda and Toyota took some risks in the styling of the new Odyssey and Sienna, respectively, Quest designers chucked the outgoing model’s geomechanical forms for something totally unexpected. Among the notable design bits is a swooping trapezoidal grille and headlamp treatment, which leads into a severely raked hood and windshield. Blacked-out B-, C-, and D-pillars give the van a floating-roof look like that embraced by Range Rover fans, and the arrow-straight waistline, the deep, slablike skirts, and the bolt-upright liftgate visually heighten it. Although the Quest looks nothing like the previous model in any respect, it is just as polarizing. We’ll go on record as stating that we like it—for the most part—when cars cause controversy with their styling, especially when they are minivans.
