The last generation of Nissan GT-R

In 2007, Nissan introduced a 2+2 sports car, the Nissan GT-R (model code: R35), and after 17 years it seems that the new edition could be the last generation of this model. Nissan has prepared several changes for the Japanese-market GT-R, including a blue interior and Nismo details for the T-Spec and Track Edition models.

The pride of the Japanese automotive industry in the latest edition did not undergo any design changes to the exterior. The interior that we can see in the previous generation is also retained, but now Japanese customers can optionally choose Heaven blue upholstery.

The new Nissan GT-R is already available to order in Japan, with first deliveries expected in June. Prices are slightly higher than last year and range from $97,703 for the base GT-R Pure Edition model to $207,088 for the most expensive GT-R Nismo Special Edition. Some rumors say that Nissan will produce only 1,500 units, but there is still no official confirmation.

When it comes to the powertrain, the new generation GT-R is powered by a 3.8-liter V6 twin-turbo engine with 573 hp (427 kW) in the standard GT-R model, or 608 hp (453 kW) in the Nismo. The Premium Edition T-Spec and Track Edition now feature high-precision weight-balanced piston rings, connecting rods and crankshafts, previously exclusive to the Nismo Special Edition.

At the Japan Mobility Show, Nissan introduced the all-electric concept Nissan Hyper Force, which should replace the GT-R model. It is predicted that the car should reach the market by 2030.

Nissan GT-R R35 is ending its European journey

Nissan has officially announced that it will stop producing the GT-R R35 sports model for the European market by the end of this month. It all started in 2009 when the first Nissan GT-R was introduced, and now due to strict European norms on noise regulation in cities but also strict rules on exhaust emissions, the Nissan GT-R is ending its European journey.

The Nissan GT-R R35 is powered by a 3.8 L twin-turbocharged V6 engine whose power has, over time, grown from the original 487 hp (358 kW) in the 2009 model to 608 hp (447 kW) in the current model. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission with manual shifting mode. It reaches 62 mph in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 196 mph (315 km / h).

And while the Japanese car company is still considering whether the new Nissan Z will sell in Europe at all, the awesome GT-R R35 will be remembered as one of the best super sports cars of all time.
