Nissan 370Z set to scorch Indian roads

Japanese auto maker Nissan is planning to launch its iconic sports car 370Z next month in India as the company looks to expand portfolio in the country. "The new sports car model 370Z will be introduced in India from January and shall be third in the series of fully imported cars launched here, after Teana and X-Trail," a company spokesperson said.


Known as the Fairlady Z in Japan, the 370Z is powered by the VQ37VHR 3.7 L DOHC V6 with Variable Valve Event and Lift Control. The whopping 332 bhp delivered from this potent motor is transferred to the rear wheels through a new 7-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters or 6-speed manual transmission.


Along with its standout performance, the car stands out from the crowd with its dramatic performance-oriented exterior and interior. The functional and fully integrated aerodynamic body pieces include an extended front nose with a canard design at each corner for improved downforce and a fully integrated chin spoiler.


A uniquely bolstered driver's seat and anti-slip material on the seat cushions hold you in place during spirited driving. Moreover, fine stitching and quality materials create one of the best-looking interiors ever put into a sports car.


The 370Z continues the tradition of the original by offering unique performance and design attributes that true sports car enthusiasts are looking for - straight from the factory.
