Nissan New Note Aura NISMO Announced on Official Social Media
On July 16, 2024, Nissan announced on its official social media that it would unveil a new NISMO model at 4:00 PM on July 18. To coincide with the unveiling, we will be hosting a talk session featuring racing driver Katsumasa Chiyo and Yokohama F. Marinos player Ryo Miyaichi.
New Note Aura NISMO: Redesign emphasizes sportiness
The new Note Aura NISMO features a new V-motion grille design on the front, giving it a more aggressive and sporty look. The headlight and bumper designs have also been revamped, further enhancing the bold look that is unique to NISMO.
The interior features seats and a steering wheel designed exclusively for NISMO, creating a sporty atmosphere, while the instrument panel and door trim are made of high-quality materials, enhancing the sense of luxury.
Improved driving performance: Realizes the dynamic driving experience that only NISMO can provide.
The new Note Aura NISMO has been tuned to deliver the dynamic driving performance that only NISMO can offer, with its suspension and brake systems tuned to match. Furthermore, it is equipped with advanced technologies such as VDC (Vehicle Dynamics Control) and Intelligent Trace Control, achieving high driving stability and maneuverability.
New Note Aura minor change: 4WD added to Aura NISMO
The addition of 4WD to the Note Aura ” NISMO ” grade makes it an even more appealing sports model. The body size has been extended and lowered compared to the previous model, with a total length of 4,120 mm, width of 1,735 mm, height of 1,505 mm, and wheelbase of 2,580 mm.
New “NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD” tuning exclusively for NISMO
The NISMO-tuned e-POWER 4WD, tuned exclusively for NISMO, has been newly added. This 4WD model, the first for the Aura NISMO, improves the rear motor’s output and torque compared to the standard model, and has also been specially tuned for front/rear drive distribution. This not only improves cornering performance in a variety of situations, but also achieves excellent line tracing even on slippery surfaces such as rainy or snowy roads. In addition, the accuracy of response to steering inputs has been improved, allowing the car to change direction more quickly with less steering input, preventing the car from drifting outwards when cornering, resulting in a reassuring and satisfying cornering acceleration.
The aluminum wheels, designed exclusively for the NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD, are lightweight while maintaining strength, and their functional design contributes to both driving and aerodynamic performance by reducing the internal pressure of the wheelhouse, generating downforce while driving.
The NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD features a NISMO-exclusive front grille with a flush-type design that combines cooling performance with reduced air resistance, enhancing the sense of unity with the body. The crystal-cut design on the grille surface, with its rigid, modern impression, sparkles beautifully as the light changes. The rear bumper also features an exclusive NISMO design. Air splitters located on both ends ideally separate air from the body sides, and the layered diffuser, with overlapping edges, is shaped to neatly channel air from under the floor, contributing to reduced air resistance.
Based on the minor change “Aura,” this model features revised front and rear bumper designs, but like the previous model, it is based on the concept of a “fast-moving electric city racer” inspired by Formula E, and is infused with NISMO’s spirit and attention to detail. Based on aerodynamic technology cultivated through racing, it adopts a design that achieves aerodynamic performance optimized exclusively for NISMO. A total of seven colors are available, including a two-tone color based on “NISMO Stealth Gray.”
It is also equipped with 17-inch aluminum wheels with wide rims that ensure high aerodynamic performance, and a striking two-tone hood decal in matte black for a racing feel and gloss black to enhance the sense of unity with the cabin.
NISMO exclusive tuning, exclusive interior
The interior, like the previous model, features a dark color scheme with red accents. The combination of exclusive fabric and synthetic leather, along with the embroidered NISMO logo and red/gray stitching, creates a sporty interior space. The optional RECARO sports seats feature a specially designed seat shape that enhances a sense of unity with the car. The NISMO-exclusive genuine leather and Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel not only provides excellent grip, but also features a red center mark and red stitching. The 12.3-inch Advanced Drive Assist Display, featuring the NISMO logo and a special red power meter, offers sporty styling and excellent visibility. Additionally, a new option is the BOSE Personal Plus Sound System.
Enhanced safety features: Equipped with the latest technologies such as ProPilot and SOS call
The new Note Aura NISMO is also equipped with a full range of safety features, including the latest safety technologies such as ProPilot, a single-lane driving assist system for highways, and SOS Call, which automatically notifies an emergency department in the event of an accident, to support safe driving.
