The Nissan GT-R has not been sold in France and some other countries for several months now, and many are waiting for its replacement. The Japanese firm has so far remained rather evasive about the future of its sports car, but on the sidelines of the Tokyo Motor Show, Nissan is dropping some hints about its supercar future with a concept car that’s surprising, to say the least.

Here is the Nissan Hyper Force, a 100% electric supercar that delivers a whopping 1,000 kW (1,360 hp) of power and offers blistering acceleration. “which pushes the boundaries of what we can expect from an electric car”.

Will the GT-R of the future be electric? There are chances…

During the presentation of its concept, Nissan did not directly announce that this is the first sketch of the future GT-R R36, but the silhouette and four round taillights are already clear signs of the DNA of the Hyper Force concept.

Aesthetically, it’s quite impressive, with aerodynamic additions and electrically actuated air intakes at the front, and a huge spoiler at the rear. The opening of the doors is reminiscent of the supercars of the 1980s.

Mounted on forged carbon wheels, the Hyper Force seems straight out of a sci-fi movie, even if it’s a little hard to imagine a production GT-R with so many components to handle.

As for the interior, it feels like you’re sitting in a bucket seat with a Thrustmaster steering wheel (editor’s note: video game steering wheel) straight out of the future. As if we needed any more proof that this is a GT-R in disguise, Nissan has equipped its Hyper Force concept with two driving modes: R (racing) and GT (grand tour)..

Race for power

Hyper Force is equipped with new solid-state batteries, the capacity of which is not disclosed. Generally speaking, this is mainly an announcement effect to somehow formalize the appearance of these batteries in future electric Nissans. As stated above, the car does 1360 hpeverything is transferred to all four wheels thanks to two electric motors.

So we’re obviously wondering when this upcoming Nissan GT-R will hit our streets? As is often the case with Japanese sports cars, you’ll have to be patient. The R35 took six years to reach the market, between the presentation of its concept in 2001 and the presentation of the production model in 2007. If the timing is the same, we won’t see the future GT-R R36 until at least. 2030 year.
