Nissan GT-R Visual Review || OTO 13BX1

Overview

The legendary Nissan GT-R is a supercar with gut-punch acceleration, but its shine has started to fade—it's been around for more than 10 years with relatively few updates—and today more desirable supercars exist at the same price point. It's powered by a twin-turbo V-6 engine that pumps out 565 or 600 horsepower depending on which model you choose. All-wheel drive is standard, and the GT-R offers tenacious handling to go along with its explosive acceleration. Unfortunately, the six-figure entry price doesn't buy a cabin that's lined with high-end materials. In fact, much of the GT-R's switch gear appears to be lifted from the Altima parts bin. The GT-R's exterior styling also won't appeal to everyone—from some angles it looks comically monstrous—but it continues to turn heads, for better or worse. Still, the GT-R is a performance powerhouse with built-in exclusivity, so if you dare to be different Nissan's halo sports car may be the right ride for you.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance The 2021 GT-R's standard twin-turbo 3.8-liter V-6 makes a mighty 565 horsepower. It hooks up to a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive that conspire to put all that power to the pavement. At our test track, the GT-R launched itself from zero to 60 mph in a mere 2.9 seconds. The GT-R's quick steering, rigid structure, and adjustable suspension can make even amateurs feel positively heroic from behind the wheel. Want more? Check out the Track Edition and NISMO models with a tuned-up engine that makes 600 horsepower. The ride is firm but not punishing and, thanks to active sound cancellation, the thrum of the GT-R's engine doesn't punish your ear drums when cruising on the highway.
