Nissan New Zealand has confirmed pricing for the updated Z sports car line-up, which includes the much-anticipated manual Nismo variant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Starting from $89,990, pricing has remained unchanged for the standard Z Coupe, which is available with either an eight-speed auto, or a six-speed manual transmission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the same story on the price front for the Z Nismo, as it remains unchanged at $108,500, no matter the transmission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 also remains unchanged, producing 298kW\/475Nm in the standard coupe, and 309kW\/520Nm in the Nismo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Aside from this three-pedal Nismo, the other big changes to the sports car can be seen on the outside.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It features a freshly designed front end, and wears a new \u2018Unryu Green\u2019 paint colour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Z Nismo gets a pair of front brake rotors taken from the GT-R, which reportedly reduce unsprung mass by 9kg.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The 2026 Nissan MY26 Z Coupe\u2019s driver-focused cabin combines a traditional manual transmission with modern digital technology. (overseas model shown)<\/p>\n

There are also new monotube Nismo dampers which are said to improve handling and ride comfort.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Orders are opening for the new Z this month, and first deliveries are expected to arrive in September.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Z is a Nissan icon. It has always been about the connection between driver and car, so bringing a manual to the NISMO and genuine GT-R-derived hardware doubles down on our promise to our most committed enthusiasts,\u201d said Steve Milette, Managing Director, Nissan Oceania.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAdd the Coupe\u2019s fresh new face, the heritage-inspired Unryu Green#, and 2026 is a milestone year for Z.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nissan New Zealand has confirmed pricing for the updated Z sports car line-up, which includes the much-anticipated manual…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":539816,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[111,43,139,69],"class_list":["post-539815","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-zealand","tag-new-zealand","tag-news","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/539815","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=539815"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/539815\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/539816"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=539815"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=539815"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=539815"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
