Engine & Gearbox

The Nissan GT-R affectionately known by its nickname of 'Godzilla' is powered by a 3.8-litre twin-turbo V6 which produces 542bhp and 628Nm of torque. All of this power is sent to all four wheels through a 6-speed dual clutch transmission. The sprint from 0 - 100km/h takes less than 3 seconds and the GT-R keeps on pushing on to a top speed of 315/km/h.

Styling

The GT-R features angular headlamps that follow the lines of the hood and the grille up front may seem large, but it is there to feed as much air as possible into the engine.

The 4 round tail lamps are a homage to the Skyline GT-R's from the 1990's and the four exhaust tail pipes and the rear diffuser are all there to emphasise the car's manic performance.

Availability & Rivals

The GT-R will hit showrooms later this year in September and will lock horns with the Mercedes AMG GTS and the Porsche 911 range.
