Smaller Nissan Z car planned
Nissan officials plan a new Z car, although it will be smaller than the current offering and will use turbo power
Quote:
Nissan’s next Z car "could be smaller", says design boss Shiro Nakamura, and will be powered by a downsized four-cylinder turbocharged engine, according to product chief Andy Palmer.
It will also be a car of slightly different character to the current model and its predecessor, says Nakamura, because "we can’t do the same thing three times".
But although "a new Z will happen", says Palmer, its design has yet to be decided. Palmer also confirms that there will be "a normal version, and a Nismo", Nissan is keen to develop its performance sub-brand as part of its re-orientation as the sportier manufacturer that it has been in previous eras.
