Nissan Hyper Force: the electric preview of the GT-R R36!

Reading time 3 Min.

The current one has been a delight since 2007, 16 years ago Nissan GT-R, known internally as R35 and affectionately known by enthusiasts as "Godzilla“, his fans and especially the tuning community. But the signs of the times point clearly in that direction Electromobility. With the current idea of ​​the Hyper Force concept study At the Japan Mobility Show, Nissan is now giving a first indication of the future direction of the GT-R, especially with regard to the R36 generation. Hyper Force concept study, a purely electrically powered hypercar, impressively shows where the journey is headed in terms of technology and design could. Elements such as the elliptical taillights or the square wing at the rear are vaguely reminiscent of the current R35.

At the same time, they completely underline Carbon manufactured body and aerodynamic features like the mighty diffuser or the Carbon Wheels with Dunlop sports tires that a new era has dawned here. Seen from the front, the Hyper Force is particularly fierce: a big one air intake, placed far outwards headlights and aerodynamic Trim define the threatening look. And a special highlight is the newly developed Plasma actuator, which ensures optimized cooling and maximum downforce. The technology allows flows to be regulated without the need for mechanical parts.

Power of up to 1.000 kW (1.360 HP)

Under the hood, the Hyper Force impresses with crazy technical data: A Electric drive with a performance of up to 1.000 kW (1.360 PS), which distributes its power to all four wheels. The energy source provides one solid state battery, whose exact capacity is not yet known. Two driving modes, “R” (racing) and “GT” (Grand Touring), offer different driving experiences, with the Cockpit Depending on the mode, it lights up in red or blue and the driver thanks AR and VR immerse yourself in a completely new world. Alfonso Albaisa, Nissan's design boss, indicated back in 2018 that the new GT-R would visually reference older Skyline models, although he wanted an angular design approach.

The world's fastest supercar?

Alfonso Albaisa's credo: The GT-R must impress with its presence and boldness and announce its identity. In terms of drive, the future seems definite electric to be. In view of the fact that from 2026 a good 80% of the models of the “Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi“ Allianz electric cars are supposed to be electric, the use of a solid-state battery in the GT-R is not unrealistic. Nissan boss Makoto Uchida emphasized the claim that the athlete is “fastest super sports car in the world“to position, whereby then far more than the current ones 600 hp of the Nismo version are needed. Finally, it remains to be said: This Nissan Hyper Force Concept could actually be a very realistic outlook GT-R R36 which is expected for 2028.
