Nissan has switched the Skyline GT-R R32 sports car to electric power.

Representatives of the Japanese brand published the first photo of the new project. At the same time, experts are keeping the technical details of the electric car secret. A full presentation of the battery-powered Skyline GT-R will take place in January 2025 at the Tokyo Auto Show.

Externally, the electric GT-R is almost identical to a classic sports car. You can distinguish the battery model by its orange brake calipers and a different shape of the front bumper air intakes. Engineers placed the charging port under the factory fuel tank filler flap.

The Japanese company has restored the iconic Nissan GT-R R34 coupe. The cost of the work will surprise you. In Japan you can buy a Nissan Skyline for $50. But there is a nuance. In Japan they sell a sticker on the trunk of a Nissan GT-R for the price of a Geely Monjaro

The donor for the new project was the collectible Skyline GT-R, owned by one of the employees of the Japanese company. According to rumors, the battery-powered sports car will be driven by a power plant from the Ariya Nismo crossover, the output of which is 435 horsepower. Moreover, the electronics will be able to simulate the all-wheel drive operation of the classic GT-R.

At the beginning of December, the old Mazda MX-5 Miata was switched to electric power. As with the GT-R, the battery-powered sports car is virtually indistinguishable from a classic car.
