2012 Nissan GTR: Earlier this month Japans Best Car Magazine said the new model would be powered by a 328kW petrol engine and a 119kW electric motor, combining for a total max output of 447kW (or a nice round 600hp). Despite the absolute commitment of Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn to electric vehicles as the future of his company, Marchs
Geneva Motor Show played host to the Infiniti Essence a 441kW 3.7-litre twin-turbo V6 hybrid. At the time, spokesman for Nissans luxury division, Shiro Nakamura, said that the coupe (built on the same platform as the GT-R) was only a showpiece for now. But the latest reports suggest that a hybrid GT-R is a favoured project among Nissan engineers and could be within three years of a launch. Edmunds Inside Line says it expects the GT-R to maintain its 3.8-litre V6 but still aim for the 450kW combined output, raising power by close to 100kW over the current 357kW unit.
