Nissan's head of product says that the next-generation, all-electric GT-R must wait for solid state technology in order to be light enough to perform on tracks like the Nurburgring
When Nissan unveiled the Hyper Force concept at the Japan Mobility Show 2023 earlier this month, it was clear that it previewed a next-gen GT-R, codenamed R36, even if the automaker refused to admit it. Now, its head of product, Ivan Espinosa, has revealed some of the expectations he has for the next-gen, all-electric GT-R.
In fact, designing an AWD system that is predictable, forgiving, and confidence-inspiring is potentially very easy, according to Espinosa. However, he admits that there will some things to learn as chassis engineers and software engineers work together more closely. That collaboration could lead to brand-new features, though. With the help of artificial intelligence and improving driver assistance technologies, Nissan could create a GT-R that teaches you how to drive better.
