1000 Unit Production, 3.0L V6 Engine, 414 HP Introduced In Japan, New Nissan Skyline Nismo 2024

The Nissan Skyline Nismo has the same tuned engine as the Nissan Z Nismo and even has the same Recaro seats.

The Nissan Skyline sedan in Japan is starting to feel a bit old, but the lineup has been updated with the release of new Skyline Nismo and Nismo Limited variants. The duo was introduced just after the Nissan Z sports car was also updated with the Nismo version.

Nissan says its goal with the Skyline Nismo models is to make a sedan that's as comfortable as the standard model but even faster, leveraging Nismo's racing technologies and expertise. Only 1,000 examples of the standard Skyline Nismo will be built, with a modified 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 each producing 309 kW (414 hp) and 550 Nm of torque. The car can be driven in three modes; Standard, Sport and Sport+, the last two have fine-tuned transmission settings to speed up changes.

Elsewhere, Nissan has equipped it with new Enkei 19-inch wheels wrapped in high-performance tires paired with specially tuned suspension and stabilizers to reduce roll and optimize traction. Nismo engineers also changed the material of the brake pads.

A handful of visual changes have also been made. For example, the car rocks revised front and rear bumpers with bright red accents, Nismo badges, fog lights and a distinctive front grille to maximize cooling. The interior also stands out thanks to a new leather-wrapped steering wheel, red ring tachometer, black Recaro seats and various suede upholstery pieces.

As for the Nissan Skyline Nismo Limited, it's limited to just 100 pieces and stands out thanks to its matte gunmetal painted wheels, an engine nameplate with the engine manufacturer's name, and a special serial plate with the production number and a unique logo.

Japanese prices for the Skyline Nismo started at 7,880,400 yen ($54,692) and reached 9,479,000 yen ($66,111) for the Nismo Limited.
