This New Nissan 400Z Car Is All Shades Of Beauty
The New Nissan 400Z car is to use 400Z as its code name and it comes with a twin-turbo V6.
The long-awaited 370Z replacement will send 400bhp to its rear wheels and is expected to be unveiled within the next year, 2021.
The long-awaited successor to the Nissan 370Z is finally becoming a reality – and the all-new sports car could be revealed to the world within the next 12 months.
Tipped to be called the 400Z, it’s set to make use of a twin-turbocharged V6 offering greater levels of performance than its predecessor.
With the 370Z having been on sale with only minimal changes since 2009, rumours of what will replace it have been circulating for years.
Nissan has experimented with this engine in the 370Z already, fitting it with a manual gearbox and displaying it at the SEMA aftermarket trade show in 2018. The 400Z name also implies this power output, plus the latest prototypes of the new Z car spied testing wore modified 370Z bodywork.
The 370Z appeals firmly to fans of old-school, enthusiast-targeted sports cars, so it’s likely Nissan will want to offer a manual gearbox alongside an automatic. However, rivals such as the Toyota GR Supra and Alpine A110 go without a stick-shift option.
The official premiere is slated to take place within the next 12 months, although the debut could be pushed back in light of the coronavirus outbreak. The 400Z could be among the first cars to wear Nissan’s new corporate badge that was recently trademarked alongside an updated Z logo. While the badges could be new, the styling is said to take after its ancestor, the Datsun 240Z. Inside, expect a completely revamped cabin with better materials and the latest technologies.
