Japanese carmaker Nissan has confirmed Nismo is developing an "ultimate" version of the GT-R, which is expected to go on sale next year alongside existing Nismo models, including the 370Z Nismo and the Juke Nismo.
Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn said: "It would be unthinkable for us to develop a range of Nismo road cars without including the GT-R. The standard road car is a global supercar and the GT-R’s performance on track reflects the passion and talents of the Nismo team. The GT-R Nismo will be special and I can’t wait to drive it."
Under the hood, the GT-R Nismo will most likely feature an uprated version of the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 engine that now develops 545 hp and 627 Nm of torque. In addition, it will also get a new body kit and several interior tweaks to differentiate it from the standard version.
