Coming to India
Nissan is finally set to launch its halo car in India. The GT-R, or Godzilla as it’s reverently known, is a legend worldwide and should do well for Nissan in India as well. The GT-R has a twin turbo 3.8-litre V6 petrol motor. A six-speed dual clutch transmission sends power to all four wheels. The GT-R boasts brutal acceleration and a top speed of over 310 kmph. The GT-R is likely to cost around Rs 1.5 crore when it goes on sale between November and December this year.
