Nissan Z 2023 ready for release

Nissan once again made a name for itself with the introduction of the new generation Z in August 2021. According to the company's chief engineer, the successor to the 370Z will not chase every tenth of a second in speed tests, as the model is focused on driver and passenger comfort rather than record km/h. Together with the novelty, the Japanese automaker will release several driving shoes in which it will be even more convenient to drive a rear-wheel drive coupe.




If the details voiced are still not enough to make you wait for the release of the new car to the market in 2022, we will reveal a few more points. Thus, the first official brochure was released, and some people were not too lazy to upload the published marketing materials to the Nissan Z Club forums. Discussions immediately flared up on thematic platforms, and for good reason - 370 years have passed since the release of its predecessor, the 13Z.

Eyewitnesses from Burnt Rubber stumbled upon a 2023 Model Z prototype in downtown Sacramento. The car made a hard start and entered into a bit of a struggle for traction. Most likely, auxiliary systems worked at that moment. Nissan said the new car will be 15 percent faster than its predecessor. Based on this statement, it can be assumed that the acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h will take the car less than 5 seconds.



The sound of the engine sounds a little familiar, and this is explained by the fact that the VR30DDTT engine is also installed in the Infiniti Q60 Red Sport. There he gives out the same 400 hp. With. power and 475 N * m of torque, which is under the hood of the new Z. On the prototype, the internal combustion engine is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

With launch control, a mechanical limited-slip differential, and a V6 engine with a rev limiter at 6800 rpm, the 2023 Nissan Z is sure to be a hit. However, it has to be priced affordably. Considering this is a major refresh of the 370Z and not an all-new car, we can assume Nissan will still keep it relatively affordable.



While the facelifted rear-wheel drive coupe has yet to go on sale, there are already rumors of a more powerful Z Nismo expected to arrive in the coming years. The question hung in the air about whether the Japanese company will produce a reinforced version in the body of the roadster, as before the 2019 model year. Then the version with a movable roof cost 10 thousand dollars more than the standard version, which did not affect its popularity in the best way.
