Nissan Z lightweight components
It’s all about power-to-weight
There are two proven ways to improve performance – add power or reduce overall weight. In the new Nissan Z, we do both. An impressive 10% improvement in power-to-weight ratio enhances the all-new Nissan Z’s acceleration, handling, and braking.
Wheels and suspension
