UPDATE: Nissan responded to Motor1 about it bringing the Ariya Nismo to the US, and its not coming right here anytime quickly. The firm stated in an announcement, “This is a very exciting time in Nissan’s electrification journey in our region and we are constantly looking ahead to ensure we bring our customers the best products and experiences. For the time being, the car will only be available in the Japanese market. We have no further announcements at this stage regarding introduction of this car to other markets.”

Following the GT-R, Z, and Japan-only Skyline, Nissan introduces its fourth Nismo mannequin, which ditches the inner combustion engine. The Nissan Ariya Nismo debuted right now on the 2024 Tokyo Auto Salon – and it isn’t only for present; the sportier physique equipment is accompanied by an precise energy bump.

Nissan plans to supply the Ariya Nismo in two variants in Japan. The base mannequin belts out a mixed output of 362 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, generated by a pair of electrical motors drawing energy from a 66.0-kilowatt-hour battery pack. Opt for the beefier variant, and energy will increase to 430 hp and 443 lb-ft, with a bigger battery capability of 91.0 kilowatt-hours.
