Japanese Nissan's in-house tuner, Nismo , currently has the 370Z and Juke in its portfolio . At the end of January, we also wrote about the fact that the electric Leaf will also have the Nismo badge . We almost didn't expect it, as there are better cars of the Japanese brand that deserve such a modification. Yes, we mean the GT-R , for example , and it looks like someone heard us, because the production GT-R Nismo has been given the green light.
Nissan brand CEO Carlos Ghosn , stated: "We have cleared the GT-R Nismo to go into production and it will be special". Unfortunately, he did not release any detailed information on this statement, so we can only speculate about the possible technique. Under the hood, there will likely be a modified 3.8 -liter twin-turbocharged six-cylinder engine that currently offers 545 horsepower and 627 Nm of torque.
In addition to higher horsepower and newton-meters, the Japanese Godzilla will get a new body kit and several interior modifications to differentiate it from the classic versions. We should expect the more powerful Nissan GT-R Nismo next year, the exact date and location of the premiere are not yet known.
