The GT-R makes the most of a hand-built, twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre V6 engine. It generates 565 horsepower and 467 pound-feet of torque—unless you opt for the Track Edition or the new NISMO Special Edition, in which case you get 600 horsepower and 481 pound-feet. Power is distributed to all four wheels through a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, resulting in 0-100 km/h acceleration in the low three-second range. Strong Brembo brakes ensure confident stops.
