A manual transmission and performance enhancements for Z NISMO
In response to popular demand, the 2027 Nissan Z NISMO adds an available six-speed manual transmission, with a short shifter and an upgraded clutch to complement the track-ready capability of the NISMO-enhanced car.
All 2027 Z NISMO models also get upgraded two-piece, iron-aluminum brake rotors derived from those on the legendary Nissan GT‑R, saving 19 pounds of unsprung weight while increasing thermal capacity. Enhanced cooling channels on the rotors also keep temperatures significantly lower for track use.
Refreshed design for Z Sport, Performance
The 2027 Nissan Z Sport and Performance grades feature a heritage-inspired refresh that incorporates design elements from classic Nissan sports cars. These include a body-color bar in the grille opening on Sport and Performance, and a new "Z" emblem in place of the Nissan logo on its nose for all grades. Additionally, Z Performance features new forged 19-inch wheels with black spokes and a machined-finish rim.
A striking new Shinkai Green Pearl Metallic paint option, inspired by the green of the original S30-generation Nissan Z, joins the car's color palette. A tan interior upholstery option is also newly offered on Performance trim, providing the green-on-tan color combination that customers have been asking for.
Nissan engineers continuously enhance vehicles throughout their lifecycle, and for 2027 the Z Performance receives larger-diameter shock absorbers to enhance stability and damping capability, for optimized ride and handling. All models of the 2027 Z also have a new fuel tank design that helps maintain fuel delivery and engine performance during sustained, high-lateral force cornering.
