Flagship SUV is Nismo's first model since 370Z and gets bespoke styling and chassis tweaks
Nissan's tuning arm Nismo has confirmed it will return to Europe with a high-performance version of the Ariya crossover. Revealed at the 2024 Tokyo motor show, the Ariya Nismo is based on the top-specification Ariya e-4orce, but gains more power, tuned throttle dynamics, a Nismo driving mode and a raft of more aggressive exterior design touches. These include a more prominent front splitter, a vortex generator on the roof, deeper side skirts and rear bumpers, and a ducktail spoiler.
The B9, meanwhile, uses a 91kWh battery - 4kWh more than the current largest-capacity Ariya - and puts out 429bhp and 442lb ft. This makes it considerably more powerful than the Volkswagen ID 4 GTX but slightly less so than the Ford Mustang Mach-E GT. Nissan has not revealed a 0-62mph time or top speed. However, we expect it to be much faster than the current quickest Ariya, which takes 5.1sec to dispatch 62mph and maxes out at 124mph.
