2022 Nissan Z Proto

2022 Nissan Z Proto
.............................
The new Z will be powered by a version of Infiniti's 3.0-liter twin-turbo V-6, sending power to the rear wheels. Nissan hasn't release specs or performance numbers yet, saying only that it'll be more powerful than the current 370Z's 332-horsepower 3.7-liter naturally aspirated V-6.

We suspect the car will use the 400-horsepower version currently found in the Infiniti Q50 and Q60 Red Sport 400. It won't be the first time we've seen this variant in a Z—Nissan built a current-gen 370Z with the powerplant called the Project Clubsport 23 for SEMA in 2018.

The Z Proto shown above is equipped with a real, actual six-speed manual transmission, which Nissan says will be standard on the production car. This gives the car an edge over its main competitor, the Toyota Supra, which is currently only offered with an eight-speed automatic. Of course, a fast-shifting automatic will be available as an option for those who'd rather let the car do the shifting.

On the day of the Z Proto's launch, Nissan product specialist Hiroshi Tamura confirmed in an interview the new Nissan Z will use a heavily modified version of the current Z architecture, rather than an entirely new platform. This contradicts previous reports claiming the Z might instead share its underpinnings with the Infiniti Q60.

In a world where sports cars are an ever-shrinking portion of the market, it's not exactly easy to justify the development of an all-new architecture. So this move makes sense. Hopefully it won't have a negative impact on how the car drives.

One thing we don't know is what it'll be called. Normally we assume that a new generation of a car will retain its current name, but Nissan's Z cars usually change names every generation. Historically they've been based on displacement; the 300ZX had a 3.0-liter engine, while the 350Z had a 3.5-liter engine and so on.

Problem is, if the 3.0-liter turbo engine does end up powering the next Z, we find it hard to believe that Nissan would bring back the 300Z name. Generally, numbers in the automotive world perpetually go up, a quirk of marketing where you never want to sell something that seems "lower" than last year's model.
