For the all-new 2017 Nissan GT-R, hand-assembled by craftspeople called Takumi, a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 powers the vehicle. For next year's car, it shall deliver 565 horsepower and 467 lb-ft of torque. Compared to the 2016 version, those values have increased by 20 hp and 4 lb-ft, respectively, thanks to the tweaked ignition timing and an extra boost for the upgrades. That power proceeds to all four wheels through a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Its redesigned dashboard encloses a new 8.0-inch touchscreen, compared to the previous version with a 7.0-inch screen. Nissan said it reduced the number of controls from 27 in the previous version to 11 in the 2017 model. The NissanConnect mobile app suite will also be available for the 2017 Nissan GT-R in certain markets, along with a smartphone app that allows remote control of things like door locks and the car alarm, according to Digital Trends.

The redesigned front fascia directs airflow around the front-wheel wells to reduce drag of the new 2017 GT-R. The side sills have also been contoured to prevent air from being drawn under; a reshaped C-pillar which cleans the airflow around the upper part of its body and a redesigned rear fascia helps reduce drag and pulls cooling air around the exhaust of the Nissan GT-R.

As for its transmission, for maximum acceleration, the GT-R's paddles-shifted 6-speed sequential dual-clutch transmission can "snap off lightning-quick gear changes" in just 0.15 seconds when in R-Mode. This is as swift as the blink of an eye, Nissan USA described the 2017 Nissan GT-R.

Pricing of the all-new 2017 Nissan GT-R starts at $109,990 with 16/22 city/highway MPG. The vehicle can be customized to suit one's taste by adding in genuine Nissan accessories. Trade-in is also available in Nissan's website, as well as dealer pricing quotation. Motorists may also download or print a brochure from there.
