Nissan Z Nismo will be available with manual transmission!

When the Nissan Z Nismo hit the market in 2024, it was seen as a strong competitor with its impressive power package of 420 hp and 521 Nm of torque, along with more serious suspension and braking systems, a limited-slip differential, and upgraded aerodynamic features.

Unfortunately, at that time, the sports car was only available in a nine-speed automatic version.

Fortunately, Nissan understands the demand and desires of Nismo fans.

According to a report from Automotive News, the Nissan Z Nismo will now be offered in a six-speed manual version to complement the existing automatic transmission option.

However, Nissan America’s Chairman, Christian Meunier, did not elaborate on whether the manual model would feature its own tuning or maintain the specifications of the existing Z Nismo.

True enthusiasts of the Nissan Z, as well as critics of the BMW Supra, can still enjoy this sports car with a three-pedal setup through the base Z Sport and Performance variants.

However, for the manual version of the Nissan Z Nismo, you will need to be patient, as Nissan has not disclosed when this model will arrive.
