Nissan Launches Ariya NISMO, Expanding EV Lineup in Japan

Nissan has introduced the much-anticipated Ariya NISMO, a high-performance electric vehicle (EV) set to revolutionize driving experiences in Japan.

Unveiled at the Tokyo Auto Salon 2024 earlier this year, the Ariya NISMO is slated to hit the Japanese market in June, marking a significant milestone in Nissan’s commitment to innovation.

This latest addition to the NISMO lineup promises an unparalleled blend of speed, comfort, and handling, building upon the already exceptional Ariya e-4ORCE.

With two dynamic models available, the Ariya NISMO offers customers the choice between the B6 e-4ORCE and the B9 e-4ORCE, each tailored to meet diverse driving preferences.

The B6 e-4ORCE boasts a robust 66 kWh battery, delivering a formidable 270 kW of power and 560 Nm of torque. Meanwhile, the B9 e-4ORCE, equipped with a larger 91 kWh battery, pushes boundaries with an impressive 320 kW output and 600 Nm of torque.

NISMO’s precision tuning ensures exhilarating acceleration, striking the perfect balance between power and control. Engage the exclusive NISMO driving mode for enhanced performance, catering to enthusiasts seeking an adrenaline-fueled ride.

Crafted with premium components, the Ariya NISMO guarantees an unmatched driving experience. From temperature-resistant brake pads to aerodynamically optimized aluminum wheels, every detail is meticulously designed to elevate performance and cornering prowess.

Enhanced chassis and suspension systems further enhance stability and traction, delivering sportscar-like handling in any condition.

The exterior exudes sophistication, blending the Ariya’s signature elegance with NISMO’s renowned aerodynamic prowess. Exclusive bumpers, rear spoilers, and door moldings not only enhance aesthetics but also minimize drag and maximize downforce at higher speeds.

Step into the cabin, and you’ll be greeted by a striking black-based interior accentuated with fiery red details, creating a sporty yet luxurious ambiance.

NISMO seats offer unparalleled grip and comfort, ensuring a seamless connection between driver and machine. Activate NISMO mode and experience the thrill of Formula E-inspired sound enhancements through the NISMO-exclusive BOSE Premium Sound System.

Available in six captivating colors, including the exclusive NISMO Stealth Gray with a sleek blacked-out roof, the Ariya NISMO is a true masterpiece of design and engineering.

In addition to the Ariya NISMO, Nissan also announces the resumption of orders for the Ariya B2 2WD grade in the Japanese market. Furthermore, customers can look forward to the launch of other Ariya models, including the B6 e-4ORCE, B9 2WD, B9 e-4ORCE, and B9 e-4ORCE premium grades, catering to a wide range of preferences and driving needs.
