Barely has the dust settled on the 370Z, we now have renderings of the coupe version floating around the cyber world. Nissan has already said that it won’t be revealing the Roadster till one year after the coupe but here’s a pretty good idea of how it will look like. In blue.
In the first full redesign of the iconic Nissan Z since its re-introduction as a 2003 model, nearly every piece and component has been redesigned. This includes a shorter wheelbase, greater use of lightweight body materials, a new engine with more horsepower and improved fuel economy, a new seven-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, a world’s first synchronized downshift rev-matching system for the manual transmission, and a greatly improved cabin.
All these changes will make their way onto the Roadster model, which is also expected to carry over a similar automated folding soft-top to the current model.
Under the hood will be the same 3.7L VQ37VHR V6, rated at 332hp (247kW) and 270lb-ft (366Nm) of torque.
Gearbox options will include a six-speed manual with the new “SynchroRev Match” function, as well as a seven-speed automatic with paddle shifters.
We will be bringing you more news on this as one year allows plenty of time for spy shots, renderings, gossips, rumours, etc etc. But when will the 370Z and the Roadster ever officially make it to Malaysia.?Your guess is as good as ours.
