Nissan Motor has catalyzed a significant evolution within the electric vehicle (EV) domain through the unveiling of the Ariya NISMO, a superior performance variant of its acclaimed Ariya EV. First presented at the Tokyo Auto Salon January 2024, this advanced model is slated for release on the Japanese market come June, heralding a novel phase for electric mobility.
The Ariya NISMO emerges as NISMO’s premier EV, augmenting the exemplary speed, comfort, and handling of the standard Ariya e-4ORCE. Nissan introduces two configurations of this electrifying model: the B6 e-4ORCE and the B9 e-4ORCE. The B6, equipped with a 66 kWh battery, achieves up to 270 kW of power and 560 Nm of torque.
For those pursuing greater thrill, the B9 variant, with a 91 kWh battery, reaches a zenith of 320 kW and 600 Nm of torque. NISMO tuning ensures that acceleration remains potent yet smooth and effortlessly manageable. The exclusive NISMO driving mode amplifies the vehicle’s responsiveness, satisfying drivers’ cravings for advanced performance.
Nissan’s dedication to excellence and performance shines through the Ariya NISMO’s premium components. This vehicle features specially crafted brake pads that assure outstanding stopping capability across diverse temperatures, alongside aluminum wheels that strike an ideal balance between width and weight.
Such precision design bolsters aerodynamics and cornering prowess. The optimized chassis and NISMO-tuned e-4ORCE system guarantee superior traction and sportscar-like handling, offering a driving experience without parallel.
The exterior design of the Ariya NISMO synthesizes premium aesthetics with NISMO’s distinguished aerodynamic prowess. Exclusive bumpers, rear spoilers, and door moldings not only enhance the vehicle’s stylish demeanor but also augment aerodynamic efficiency and downforce at elevated speeds.
Within, the black-based interior accented with spicy red radiates sportiness and quality. The specialized NISMO seats deliver exceptional grip and fit, engendering a profound bond between driver and vehicle. The NISMO-exclusive BOSE Premium Sound System, when activated in NISMO mode, replicates the exhilarating sounds of Formula E racing, enriching the driving experience.
Available in six colors, including the exclusive NISMO Stealth Gray with a blacked-out roof, the Ariya NISMO allows customers to tailor their vehicle to their preferences. Concurrent with the Ariya NISMO’s launch, Nissan announces the reopening of orders for the Ariya B2 2WD grade in Japan and the forthcoming introduction of other models, including the B6 e-4ORCE, B9 2WD, B9 e-4ORCE, and the premium B9 e-4ORCE grades.
This expansion signifies Nissan’s commitment to innovation and its leading role in the EV landscape, providing a wide array of options to cater to the multifaceted demands of its clientele. With Nissan pushing the limits of electric mobility, the Ariya NISMO stands as a critical advancement, merging performance, technology, and sustainability in a package designed for the contemporary driver.
