For 10 years, this model has generated more than once, but, according to representatives of the Japanese plant, this update was the most revolutionary. First of all, they highly appreciate the work of their designers, who created the sporty look of the coupe, which can be seen in the photos of the Nissan GT-R 2016 attached to the article. It is also worth noting a significant increase in technical characteristics.
Exterior Nissan GT-R 2017
The front view of the facelifted Nissan GT-R has been completely revamped. The bonnet received the characteristic potholes and curves typical of sports cars. The embossed bumper occupies a significant area at the front of the car, and only in the middle gives way to the radiator grille of the air intake. The performance of the head optics on the new Nissan GTR is far superior to that of its predecessor. Engineers replaced LED lights with xenon ones, and also equipped the coupe with an automatic light mode change system in the dark.
On the sides of the bumper are compact niches where the fog lights are hidden. Already in the basic configuration, the Nissan GTR 2016 will have a sensor that monitors road markings, this device will also be hidden in a niche.
Looking at the Nissan GTR in profile, one can appreciate the work of the engineers of the Japanese concern, who carried out painstaking work on the aerodynamic properties of the body, which positively affected the speed qualities of the sports coupe. It is impossible not to notice the 20-inch wheels, made of hardened steel, painted in a dark color and having an original pattern. The inflated wheel arches, from which an elegant pothole extends at the bottom of the door, add to the sportiness.
The stern of the updated coupe is also charged in the most sporty way. Evidence of this is the titanium tailpipes of the exhaust system, which are located on the sides of the plastic body kit. For fans of Formula 1, the exhaust system has an active sound amplification function. An impressive spoiler is installed on the trunk lid, which also contributes to the least air resistance when driving fast. The ground clearance of a sports coupe, as befits cars of this class, is underestimated and is equal to only 110 millimeters.
Interior Nissan GT-R 2017
The main elements of interior decoration of the Nissan GTR are genuine leather and soft plastic, which effectively harmonize and give the car interior a sporty spirit. The main row has very decent lateral support, and it is worth noting the updated seats, made in a sporty style in the shape of a bucket. The chairs already at the basic level have such functions as heating, perforation, ventilation, as well as an electric backrest adjustment. In the more expensive trim levels of the Nissan GTR 2016, for the convenience of the driver and passenger, the adjustment mechanism will be equipped with a special memory card that will remember this or that position of any rider.
The driver will be pleased with the updated steering column, which has received additional control joysticks. Mainly due to the multifunctional steering wheel, it was possible to free up significant space on the multimedia control panel - only 12 buttons instead of 25. The toolbar was also updated, which became more saturated, and received several modes (sports, classic, moderate). Also worth noting is the convenient location of the gearshift knob and the parking brake lever.
In terms of safety, the updated Nissan GTR will already be equipped at the basic level with ten airbags, a rear-view camera and a sensor that monitors traffic signs. In more advanced trim levels, Japanese manufacturers have provided options such as a parking aid for the driver and a system that warns of the possibility of a frontal collision.
Specifications Nissan GT-R 2017
Of the technical innovations of the updated Nissan GTR, I would like to first of all note that Japanese engineers used high-strength steel to create the car body, which has a positive effect on the safety of the driver and passenger in a possible collision. The suspension was also significantly improved, which became completely independent. For the comfort of passengers and the driver, modern sound insulators were used.
As for the engine, it is the uncontested gasoline monster called the VR38DETT with eight cylinders. This power plant has a volume of 3.8 liters and a capacity of 565 horsepower, which is 25 horsepower more than the previous generation Nissan GTR. With such an engine, the car will develop a maximum speed of 255 km per hour while accelerating to hundreds in 4.5 seconds.
Japanese designers have worked hard on the gearbox, which has become much smoother to switch and not make unnecessary noise. As for the transmission characteristics of the Nissan GTR 2016, it, as before, has 6 gear ranges and is fully automated.
The cost of the new Nissan GT-R 2017
In order to purchase the updated sports coupe, it remains to wait quite a bit, since the start of sales in Russia of the Nissan GTR 2016 is scheduled for the first half of this year. It should be noted right away that the price of the Nissan GTR is quite overpriced, at least by Russian standards. The basic equipment of the Japanese coupe will cost motorists 6,200,000 rubles.
