Nissan GT-R
When the current GT-R debuted in 2009, it represented the pinnacle of technology. Fifteen years later, “Godzilla” is no longer competitive when it comes to safety and infotainment, not to mention the fact that electrification is completely absent. For 2024, styling is refreshed, aerodynamics are improved and the T-spec edition returns. However, the twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre V6 is unchanged, still producing 565 hp or 600 hp depending on the model. What will the next chapter be like?
