It will take a bit longer before you spot a Godzilla on the streets of India. The Nissan GTR was scheduled to be launched in November, however, the launch has now been shifted to December 2. Although the supercar killer needs no introduction, here's some info on the Nissan GTR nonetheless.
Believe it or not, the GT-R is close to a decade old. Naturally, Nissan want it to bow out with a bang, and have duly updated it for - what we assume is - the final time. In its latest iteration, the supercar kicks things up a notch yet again, and has become even more powerful.
While it houses the same 3.8-litre twin-turbo motor, output has been bumped up to 565PS. The added horses, coupled with the six-speed dual-clutch automatic and Nissan's ATTESA E-TS all-wheel drive system, gives it a 0-100kmph time of just 3 seconds. There have been cosmetic updates as well, in order to keep the GT-R in tune with the times.
It gets the new family signature 'V-Motion' grille, while carrying over trademark elements like the gill on the fender and the four-pod tail lamps. Nissan has decluttered the interior by reducing the number of buttons around the centre console. It's a likeable blend of performance and luxury. There's a new 8-inch touchscreen system, which displays parameters such as coolant temperature, engine oil temperature, engine oil pressure, turbocharger boost pressure and a whole lot more, other than the usual audio, calls and navigation.
Bookings for the Nissan GT-R are already underway. When launched, it is expected to carry a sticker price of Rs 2 crore.
