Reaching the Hyper Force Goal by 2030
The GT-R dates back ages, seeing as production kicked off in the late 2007. Actually, the origins of the Godzilla go all the way back to 2001 with the introduction of the Skyline GT-R concept. Despite its lengthy years in existence, the Japanese supercar had an incredible 2023 when sales went through the roof, soaring by a whopping 584 percent in the States. Though, the R35 generation is certainly crying out for a follow-up.
At last October’s Japan Mobility Show, Nissan indicated potential regarding a coming-of-age car. The Hypers Force, flaunting its outrageous design and promised 1,341 horsepower, created a stir in the city of Tokyo. Featuring a front and back engine, all-wheel drive handling, butterfly doors, and a GT-R logo with a pixilated effect, this stunning concept gained repute. Now, according to Nissan’s Program Design Director, it is plausible for this captivating concept to be formed into a saleable vehicle by the year 2030.

In a chat with Autocar, Giovanny Arroba referred to the Hyper Force as a “daring but tangible dream to achieve by the end of the decade.” He went on to say, “the shapes, proportion, and stance aren’t based on pure fantasy.” The response Nissan got after the concept’s introduction was varied. Some argued that the upcoming supercar should maintain a combustion engine, while others reacted “quite positively” to an all-electric setup.
Previously, Nissan’s global product head Ivan Espinosa divulged the arrangement is to stay put for solid-state batteries to become realized prior to beginning an electric GT-R. Although the Hyper Force had a dual-motor system, Espinosa did not reject the option of cramming in a third or even fourth motor into the R36. Moreover, he insinuated the prospect of a more extreme Nismo variant that would employ a reduced battery to lessen its weight.
Nissan has stated that they plan to introduce an EV with solid-state batteries by 2028. Compared to today’s lithium-ion batteries, the company promises double energy density and tripled charging speed. David Moss, the firm’s VP for Research & Development in Europe, also reinforced that such technology necessitates a completely different platform from the ones used now; meaning an unrecognizable model. Furthermore, Moss commented that the new batteries will make producing larger SUVs and pickup trucks far more feasible.
