  • Nissan releases all new 2017 GT-R

    The new Nissan GT-R sports an exciting fresh look both inside and out, as well as major driving performance enhancements and key new features.


    Tan Chong Motor Sales is pleased to announce that the all new 2017 Nissan GT-R is now open for booking. The new Nissan GT-R sports an exciting fresh look both inside and out, as well as major driving performance enhancements and key new features, all of which represent the most significant changes made to the model since it was introduced in 2007.

    The new GT-R's exterior gets a complete makeover across the front end. The new chrome matte finish 'V-motion' grille with an updated mesh pattern, representing one of Nissan's latest design signatures, has been enlarged to provide better engine cooling, while the bumper sides were optimally reshaped to retain the car's air drag and downforce.

    A new hood, which flows flawlessly from the grille, has been significantly reinforced, contributing to stability during high-speed driving. A freshly designed front spoiler lip and front bumpers with finishers situated immediately below the headlamps give the new GT-R the look of a pure-bred racecar, while generating high levels of front downforce.

    The rear of the car also received a thorough makeover. While the GT-R's hallmark four-ring taillights remain, new bodywork helps improve air flow, as well as side air vents next to the quad exhaust tips.

    Inside, the entirely new dashboard and instrument panel is covered with high quality leather, which is artfully stitched together with Takumi precision. The shape of the dashboard adopts a 'horizontal flow' that delivers a sense of increased stability for front seat passengers, while the line from instrument cluster to the centre console gives a distinct driver-oriented environment for those behind the steering wheel. An 8.0-inch touchscreen monitor with large icons on the display screen and a new Display Command control located on the carbon fibre centre console allows easy operation.

    The GT-R's award-winning 3.8-litre, six-cylinder, twin-turbocharged engine - each unit handcrafted by its own Takumi master craftsman - now delivers 562bhp at 6,800rpm and 632Nm of torque. The improved output, which is the result of individual ignition-timing control of the cylinders developed for the GT-R NISMO and extra boost from the turbochargers, allows the new GT-R to possess superior acceleration in the mid to high ranges. The engine is mated to a thoroughly refined six-speed dual-clutch transmission that features smoother shifts and reduced noise levels.

    The GT-R has always been regarded as one of the world's best handling machines, and for 2017, its cornering abilities have been enhanced, resulting in better grip of the tyres and responsiveness even when driving at high speeds. The new GT-R's enhanced straightline stability, which reduces steering corrections and fluctuations of the yaw rate by about 30 percent and about 20 percent, respectively, compared to those of the 2015 Nissan GT-R, gives drivers a more poised and confident ride.
