Is there another GT-R coming? We give it to you straight
An R35 NISSAN GT-R once felt bewilderingly digital and computerised to drive, but after 12 years on sale, compared to most rivals it now feels delightfully ‘analogue’.
It’s clearly time for a new-generation GT-R. But as much as we’d love to tell you a carbonfibre monocoque, twin-turbo 2.5litre V6, twin-clutch, hybrid all-wheel-drive 911 Turbo fighter is secretly en route, all signs point towards that not being the case.
Nissan bigwigs and engineers are often asked about a new GT-R, and the answers are always that they ‘want to’. But the slightly different responses as to what it could be are not very indicative of a car actually being in the thick of R&D.
