Nissan launches updated Note Aura NISMO in Japan
Nissan launched the updated Note Aura NISMO (“Aura NISMO”) with an engaging new 4WD variant, styling refinements and enhanced functionality to customers in Japan.
The Aura NISMO is based on the Aura, a premium compact car sold in the Japan market, powered exclusively by Nissan’s innovative e-POWER drivetrain.
The updated Aura NISMO delivers a high performance driving experience through specialized tuning that draws on NISMO’s racing expertise, together with styling that balances aerodynamic performance and modern design aesthetics.
Key features of the updated Aura NISMO include:
-The introduction of a new 4WD variant (called NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD)
-The adoption of styling refinements that enhance aerodynamic performance
-The introduction of an optional Bose Personal Plus sound system
-The adoption of electronic adjustment on both the standard driver’s seat and optionally available Recaro sports seats
NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD variant delivers enhanced performance
A new NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD variant is available, featuring a NISMO tuned electric 4WD system. Compared to the standard Aura 4WD model, the rear motor of the NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD is improved to deliver 10Kw increased output and an additional 50Nm of torque, along with specialized tuning for front and rear drive distribution. This enables the NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD to provide drivers with enhanced cornering performance and ensures superior control on slippery surfaces such as wet or snowy roads.
The NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD variant is equipped with unique lightweight 17-inch aluminum wheels that have been engineered to reduce air pressure within the wheel wells and generate downforce when in motion.
Refreshed design yields aerodynamic improvements
With the introduction of NISMO tuned e-POWER 4WD, the Aura NISMO exterior design has been refined to enhance aerodynamic performance. A refreshed NISMO-exclusive front grille features a flush design that balances cooling performance and reduced air resistance. At the rear, a new bumper features air splitters to enhance air flow along the sides of the body, while a layered diffuser, directs airflow smoothly from underneath the vehicle, helping to reduce air resistance.
The updated Aura NISMO is available in seven colors, including a two-tone color scheme based on exclusive NISMO Stealth Gray, the signature color available for all NISMO road car models.
