Nissan has launched the Ariya Nismo - unveiled in January at Tokyo Auto Salon 2024 - with initial sales planned to start in Japan in June.
Nismo’s flagship EV model further enhances the speed, comfort and handling of the already superb standard Ariya e-4ORCE.
Customers can choose between two Ariya
Nismo models, the B6 e-4ORCE and B9 e-4ORCE. The former features a 66
kWh battery and produces a maximum 270 kW and 560 Nm of torque. The
latter, outfitted with a 91 kWh battery, generates a peak output of 320
kW and 600 Nm of torque. Nismo tuning produces acceleration that’s
powerful yet smooth and easy to control. Engaging the exclusive Nismo
driving mode maximizes response when even greater performance is
desired.
The Ariya Nismo’s list of premium components includes
brake pads that provide excellent stopping power in a wide range of
temperatures, and aluminum wheels that strike a perfect balance between
width and weight to ensure superior aerodynamics and cornering ability.
The
chassis has been enhanced to optimize front and rear suspension
performance, while the Nismo-tuned e-4ORCE provides outstanding traction
in all conditions and sportscar-like line tracing.
The exterior
blends the Ariya’s premium quality with Nismo’s stellar aerodynamics.
Equipped with exclusive bumpers, rear spoilers and door moldings, the
stylish design reduces drag and generates greater downforce at higher
speeds.
A black-based interior with a spicy red accent gives the
cabin a sporty, high quality appearance, while the special Nismo seats’
grip and fit create a sense of being one with the car. Activating Nismo
mode in vehicles equipped with the Nismo-exclusive BOSE Premium Sound
System produces a sound evocative of Formula E racing that boosts
driving excitement.
The Ariya Nismo’s bodywork comes in six colors, including exclusive Nismo Stealth Gray with a blacked-out roof.
Nissan
is also announce it will resume accepting orders in the Japan market
for the Ariya B2 2WD grade, and it will launch other models including
the B6 e-4ORCE, B9 2WD, B9 e-4ORCE and B9 e-4ORCE premium grades.
