You may remember Nissan’s Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo, which debuted in both Gran Turismo 6 DLC and real-life form at last year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed. Now it’s back again for the Tokyo Motor Show, and it’s very, very red. I’m a fan.
Now donning a Fire Knight paint scheme, the concept is decidedly more finished-looking than the one that showed up last year. While Nissan is coy in describing it merely as “a vision of what a high performance Nissan could look like in the future,” it’s pretty clear this is their idea of what the next GT-R could be—or should be.
That car is said to be co-developed with racing constructor Williams featuring a hybrid version of the current GT-R’s 3.8-liter twin turbo V6 boosted to 800 horsepower, as well as hundreds of pounds lighter.
If it looks anything like this, I’ll be OK with it.
