R35 GT-R production ends after 18 years

[Rezz]

Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant.

Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes."

Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R.

Sad times indeed.

I fear it's probably better if they don't release an R36. The way modern cars are going I'm worried it'll be a great disappointment.

People said the same thing when the R35 going into development was announced.

Updated VR38 that meets emissions + 3 electric motors (one on each front wheel, one in gearbox) = massive performance.
Hell even with just one electric motor on front axle + e-diff will be mega. No denying electrification, just need to keep the weight in check somehow.

Cry as many do, but the new Mercedes-AMG C63 has massive performance from a 2L 4-cyl turbo + electric motors. The new NSX I reckon is a great car, just people scoffed at it, like the Lexus LFA.
