Inspired by nonlinear quantile regression, the article introduces, investigates, discusses, and illustrates a new concept of generalized elliptical location quantiles. They may require less stringent moment assumptions, be less sensitive to outliers, be less rigid, employ more a priori information regarding the location of the distribution, and have higher potential for various regression generalizations than their common elliptical predecessor defined in the convex optimization framework by means of standard linear quantile regression. Furthermore, they still include an equivalent of their predecessor as a special case and inherit most of its favorable features such as the probability interpretation, natural equivariance properties, and good behavior for elliptical and symmetric distributions, which is demonstrated both by theoretical results and data examples with convincing graphical output.
