Nissan GT-R Going Electric?

Nissan GT-R

The environment and supercars, it has never been a good combination. But still, most of the manufacturers are trying their best to keep the green spirit in mind. That is why Nissan is planning to implement a power source based around multiple batteries in the next generation GT-R. Both Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn’s and Australia’s chief engineer Kazutoshi Mizuno confirmed the following:

It should come as no surprise that the automaker is seriously considering adding some form of battery power to the next iteration of its sports car. An alternative powertrain will be a necessity to keep the GT-R relevant and meet future emissions and fuel economy standards.

Not a lot is known so far, but we expect Nissan to release more soon. So please stay tuned…
