In 2018, the seventh-generation Nissan Z was first hinted at by Alfonso Albaisa, Senior Vice President for Global Design of Nissan, confirmed to Australian automotive magazine WhichCar that a direct successor to the Nissan 370Z was in development.[6] On March 19, 2020, Nissan filed a trademark for a new version of the Z-car logo. On May 28, 2020, as part of Nissan's global restructuring plan, named "Nissan Next", Nissan's official YouTube channel released a short video showcasing its updated vehicle lineup, including the new Z-car; this video also confirmed that the new Z-car would have retro styling, with its overall shape and circular running lights referencing the 240Z.[7] On September 15, 2020, Nissan revealed the prototype version called the "Nissan Z Proto Concept".[8] The prototype was 4,382 mm (172.5 in) long, which is 142 mm (5.6 in) longer than the 370Z, and the same width.

The production model Z was foreshadowed by the Z Proto concept, which was presented on September 15, 2020.[9] The production version of the Z was unveiled on August 17, 2021, at New York City by Nissan's official YouTube channel, and the car was presented by Cody Walker (brother of Paul Walker).[10][11] The production model was offered in two trim levels: Z Sport (Fairlady Z Version S in Japan) and Z Performance (Fairlady Z Version ST in Japan). Production of the new Z, began in April 2022, with sales set to begin in June 2022.[12][13] However, in April 2022, Nissan announced that worldwide deliveries of the Z will be delayed until mid 2022, due to the impact of the supply parts.[14] Deliveries began in late 2022. Nissan achieved 263 U.S. sales in fiscal year 2022 and 1,771 U.S. sales in fiscal year 2023, for a total of 2,034 Z units sold in the United states as of December 31, 2023. [15]

Nissan announced that the Z would not be available for European markets including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Türkiye and Ukraine, due to strict emissions and noise regulations. The Z is only sold in the Japanese, North American, Australian, New Zealand, Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern (GCC countries) and Latin American markets.[16] Pricing for the Japanese market Z was announced in April 2022, with the base version S (Sport version) starting at ¥5,241,500 (US$41,081 as of exchange rates at the time), and the version ST (Performance version) starting at ¥6,462,500 (US$50,650 as of exchange rates at the time).[14] United States pricing was also announced, starting at US$41,015 for the Sport version, and US$51,015 for the Performance version.[17]

Z Performance

[edit]
Nissan Z Performance in Seiran Blue body color at 2022 New York Auto Show

The Z Performance (known as Fairlady Z Version ST in Japan) has the same VR30DDTT, a 3.0-liter twin turbocharged V6 engine, generating a maximum power output of 298 kW (400 hp; 405 PS) at 6,400 rpm and 475 N⋅m (350 lb⋅ft; 48 kg⋅m) of torque at 1,600 to 5,600 rpm with a redline at 6,800 rpm. This trim also has the same 6-speed manual transmission and 9-speed automatic transmission. This trim retains all the features and upgrades of the base Sport trim as well as other features.

Other upgrades includes: SynchroRev Match rev-matching system for manual transmission models, GT-R-inspired paddle shifters with launch control for automatic transmission models, an even sportier suspension setup over the Sport trim, larger brake rotors with 14.0-inch for the front and 13.8-inch in the rear and also red floating aluminum calipers with 4-piston up front and 2-piston for the rear. For the Performance trim, Nissan also offers a mechanical clutch-type limited-slip differential, 19-inch Rays super lightweight forged alloy wheels with Bridgestone Potenza S007 high-performance street tires, front and rear spoilers to improve downforce, sports dual exhaust outlets, heated leather seats with four-way power-adjustable, 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment with navigation, NissanConnect services and 8-speaker Bose audio system.[18][19] The manual transmission version has curb weight of 1,604 kg (3,536 lb) and the automatic transmission version has a curb weight of 1,634 kg (3,602 lb).

Z Nismo

[edit]
Nissan Z NISMO

The Z Nismo was revealed on August 1, 2023, with significant upgrades over the standard Z both visually and mechanically. Starting off with the mechanical upgrades, the VR30DDTT engine of the Z Nismo was offered with a redesigned wastegate, enhanced ignition timing, engine cooling and oil cooling system, inspired by the GT-R Nismo. Maximum power output of the upgrades engine is now rated at 420 hp (313 kW; 426 PS) at 6,400 rpm and 384 lb⋅ft (521 N⋅m; 53 kg⋅m) of torque at 2,000 to 5,200 rpm. The car only featured the 9-speed automatic transmission with Nismo-tuned clutch packs and engine management software. As a result, downshifts are twice as fast and launch control is more aggressive. Nissan revealed the reason behind the absence of a manual transmission version is because of performance loss due to slower gear changes. A new "Sport+" driving mode was introduced in Z Nismo; to allow quick downshifts so the driver would not have the need to use the paddle shifters. Chassis upgrades include additional bracing, increasing torsional rigidity by 2.5 percent over the Z Performance. Carbon-fiber driveshaft of the standard Z is replaced by a steel driveshaft. In case of suspension upgrades, stiffer bushings, mounting points and larger dampers were added to the Z Nismo. Its upgraded brakes featured larger 4-piston calipers, 15.0-inch brake rotors in the front and 13.8-inch rotors in the rear, clamped by a heavy-duty brake pad. Overall curb weight of the car is now rated at 1,680 kg (3,704 lb).[22]

Visual upgrades include; an upgraded front fascia with a reworked grill, nose and front-spoiler, providing additional engine cooling and downforce. A three-piece rear spoiler was also offered to complete the upgraded aerodynamic package. New exclusive Nismo wheels are wider and more painted in gloss-black paint color. They were wrapped up by the stickier and track-focused Dunlop SP Sport MAXX GT600 tires. Interior of the car featured a red and black color theme, along with the new Recaro bucket seats, revisions were made to the steering wheel, speedometer as well as for the infotainment system. The Z Nismo went on sale with a limited production number in the third quarter of 2023.[23][24]

Specifications

[edit]
The VR30DDTT engine alongside the Nissan Z

The Nissan Z features the same platform, manual transmission and architecture of the 370Z, while making use of a nine-speed automatic transmission used previously in other cars such as the Nissan Frontier. "To be honest, [for] around 80 per cent of the body we changed the parts. [However], carryover of parts is very important for us and carryover means reality of affordability so you will be able to enjoy some affordability," said Hiroshi Tamura, chief product specialist of the Nissan Z to Australian publication CarExpert about the part sharing with the 370Z.[25]

The Nissan Z (base Sport trim known as Fairlady Z Version S in Japan) uses the same VR30DDTT engine from the Infiniti Red Sport 400 models (known as the Nissan Skyline 400R V37 in Japan), and the same Nissan FM Platform from previous two generations of the Z. The VR30DDTT is a 3.0-liter twin turbocharged V6 engine generating a maximum power output of 298 kW (400 hp; 405 PS) at 6,400 rpm and 475 N⋅m (350 lb⋅ft; 48 kg⋅m) of torque at 1600 to 5600 rpm with a redline of 6,800 rpm. The engine also features direct injection and variable valve timing, running up to 14.7 psi (101 kPa) of boost. Manual transmission models get a carbon-fibre driveshaft, an EXEDY performance clutch, and a rev-matching system on downshifts. Automatic transmission models get launch control and aluminum paddle shifters.[18][19]

Transmission

[edit]

The Z has a 6-speed manual transmission, continuing this tradition from previous generation Z models. It is also offered with an optional 9-speed Mercedes-Benz 9G-Tronic automatic transmission with launch control, manufactured under license of Jatco and re-branded as "JR913E".[18][19][26]

Interior

[edit]

The interior was designed with the help of Nismo and SuperGT GT500 class racing driver, Tsugio Matsuda. The interior features a customizable 12.3-inch TFT instrument display, programmable shift indicator, three analog gauges that shows turbocharger boost, turbocharger tach (rpm), and battery voltage (which are perched on top of the dash, angled towards the driver), manually adjustable sport bucket seats similar to those found in the GT-R and can be adjusted eight-way for the driver side and four-way on the passenger side. Cloth seats with synthetic suede inserts, and a full cadre of safety nannies and driver-assistance gear are also offered.

Customers can choose the interior color in Black, Red, or Blue colors. Nissan also offered an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation and NissanConnect Services, six-speaker Bose audio system with active noise cancellation and active sound enhancement. Standard safety and tech includes; lane departure warning, automatic braking with pedestrian detection, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Intelligent Cruise Control.[18][19]

Suspension, brakes and wheels

[edit]

The suspension setup of the new Z has double-wishbone aluminum suspension with increased caster angle on the front, improving straight-line tracking and high-speed stability. A front strut tower brace stiffens up the front structure and a rear multilink suspension has been offered. It also comes with even wider tires than the 370Z, larger diameter monotube shocks, and enhanced body rigidity to help improve cornering. Nissan offered 12.6-inch rotors for the front and 12.1-inch units for the rear, gripped by the fixed two-piston front calipers and single-piston rear calipers. The Z has 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels with Yokohama Advan tires.[18][19]

Performance

[edit]

The Z has a limited top speed of 249 km/h (155 mph).[28] In a drag race conducted by Hagerty, a Z Performance automatic transmission version accelerated from 0 to 97 km/h (0 to 60 mph) in 4.0 seconds and completed the 1⁄4 mile (402 metres) in 12.3 seconds at 187 km/h (116 mph).

The Z GT500 was unveiled in December 2021, at Fuji Speedway, it was slated to compete in the 2022 Super GT season for the first time in 15 years, replacing the Nissan GT-R GT500, which had been in run for 13 seasons in the Super GT series.[31] The Z GT500 made its racing debut at 2022 Super GT season's Okayama GT 300km round. The car scored its first podium finish in its debut race, as Team Nismo's #23 car, driven by Tsugio Matsuda, made an impressive late charge to climb up to the podium place despite starting 9th on the grid.[32] In the third race of the season at Suzuka International Racing Course, the Z GT500 scored its first race win with team NDDP Racing, driven by Katsumasa Chiyo and Mitsunori Takaboshi, both drivers currently leading the championship with only one race to go.[33] For their final race at Mobility Resort Motegi, the Calsonic Impul Z qualified third while NDDP Racing qualified fourth. On race day, the NDDP Z incurred a drive-through penalty early on so Chiyo and Takaboshi had to fight from 12th to ultimately finish 4th. NDDP Racing came in 2nd for the championship standings as Team Impul eclipsed them in the series ranking with a 2nd place finish during the final round. The #12 Calsonic Impul Z, driven by Kazuki Hiramine/Bertrand Baguette, was crowned champion for the 2022 season.

In June 2022, Nissan introduced the Z Racing Concept at 2022 Super Taikyu Series, 24 hours of Fuji round. Two of these racing concepts were entered the race, to aid development of Z's future racing programs and Nissan's carbon-neutral fuel (CNF) compatible engine. Both cars entered the race as non-championship contenders with numbers, 230 and 244. The car 230 was entered by team Nismo, equipped with a CNF compatible engine, the car 244 was entered by Max Racing, equipped with an internal combustion engine (ICE). Additionally, both cars were fitted with a different aero package, compared to the standard Z. Both cars, successfully finished the race.[34]

[edit]

Z Nismo GT4

[edit]

GT4 class version of the Z was introduced on September 28, 2022, via online platforms.

The Z GT4 was developed by Nissan's motorsport arm, Nismo. In results, some upgrades were done to the road going Z. Including; minor upgrades to the VR30DDTT engine, optimized chassis and suspension for competitive racing and track driving, an aerodynamic package; which includes, a front splitter with canards and GT4-inspired strut-supported rear wing.
