Nissan revises GT-R supercar



Nissan GT-R

 Nissan is ready to launch the 2012 model year GT-R supercar, boasting 550PS of power, improved economy and lower emissions. Significant improvements to the engine, chassis and transmission are the key changes to Nissan's flagship model.

The 2012 GT-R has a newly developed asymmetric suspension, compensating for greater weight on the driver's side in RHD models.

It also boasts an enhanced transmission 'feel' and a stronger body for extra rigidity and ever better handling. By improving the GT-R's engine
efficiency, fuel economy has been improved to 24mpg (from 23.5mpg), while engine output rises significantly by 20PS.Engine response and torque at mid and low-speeds, and power at high revolutions, have also been significantly improved.

Nissan has reinforced certain areas around the rear part of the engine compartment and dash panel, to deliver more responsive handling and greater sense of the vehicle's grip. And there's now additional blue lighting inside the tachometer ring to match the shift position indicator light, giving a more sophisticated atmosphere in the cockpit. A Rear View Camera device will be standard on all models.
