Nissan Garage Exclusives: Unleashing the 2024 Z NISMO
Nissan Garage Exclusives: Unleashing the 2024 Z NISMO
Z NISMO packs more power, but that’s just the tip of the performance iceberg
The 2024 Nissan Z NISMO was engineered to lap the track again and again… and again. Hitting the team’s aggressive benchmarks meant fine-tuning hundreds of parts and countless hours of intense testing. Building on the seventh generation of the iconic Nissan Z, engineers examined the vehicle top-to-bottom to find every opportunity to optimize its on-track capabilities. They stiffened the chassis, boosted horsepower, enhanced aerodynamics and – of course – fitted new 19-inch RAYS® wheels with even grippier tires than those on Z Performance. The result: a clear continuation of NISMO’s legacy of exhilarating, track-ready sports cars. (Photo: Business Wire)
