Nissan continues to put the NISMO badge on common models. Isn’t it time to make way for a real electric sports car?
Nissan had us dreaming at the end of 2023 at the Japan Mobility Show with the Nissan Hyper Force, a concept car with fierce looks reminiscent of the GT-R. A 100% electric supercar capable of hinting at the zero-emissions future of NISMO, the sports division of the Japanese manufacturer.
At the heart of this concept car is a 100% electric high-efficiency powertrain capable of producing up to 1,000 kW, or 1,340 horsepower! The promise of devilish accelerations thanks to Nissan’s e-4ORCE all-wheel drive system. Structurally, an ultra-rigid carbon lightweight body combined with a cutting-edge aerodynamic package for exceptional behavior on track or winding roads. A set developed by NISMO, blending optimized downforce and cooling.
Nissan and the return of Godzilla
Several elements, like the front and rear lights, paid homage to the fantastic Skyline or GT-R lineage. The transition from thermal to electric was set on a royal path, and we already imagined seeing the proud Nissan challenge electric hypercars from Rimac, Yangwang, and of course Tesla. But since then… nothing!
It’s a shame because this concept could mark a paradigm shift in the sports car category. A car paying homage to a glorious past meant for customers increasingly concerned about the environment but still seeking ever more electrifying performance. So please, a little daring from Nissan!
