Experience the excitement: Nissan unveils key details of the high-performance Nissan ARIYA NISMO on World EV Day.

Press Information | 09 September 2024

​Marking the fifth anniversary of World EV Day, Nissan is preparing to launch its first high-performance electric vehicle, the Nissan ARIYA NISMO, in Europe.



This sleek and dynamic 100% electric vehicle breaks new ground, offering electrifying performance without compromise.

Drawing from Nissan’s storied NISMO legacy and maintaining its signature Japanese-inspired design, the Nissan ARIYA NISMO enhances the capabilities of the 87kWh Nissan ARIYA e-4ORCE with motorsport-inspired upgrades, delivering an even more thrilling driving experience.

Like its NISMO counterparts, it offers impressive on-road performance while remaining practical and accessible for everyday use.​

Precision-crafted for optimal aerodynamic performance

The Nissan ARIYA NISMO’s streamlined design takes full advantage of its powerful, nearly silent electric drivetrain, giving passengers the sensation of effortlessly gliding through the air. New Formula E-inspired spoilers and air curtains help reduce drag and optimize airflow, while the front splitter with canard vortex generators, extended lower bumpers, twin diffuser, and ducktail rear spoiler work together to cut the lift coefficient by 40%, bringing it down to CL 0.11 from the regular Nissan ARIYA's CL 0.18.

In addition, the exclusive 20-inch ‘NISMO’-embossed ENKEI wheels, paired with Michelin Pilot Sport EV tyres, enhance grip and road stability while reducing un-sprung weight and improving brake cooling.

Crafted using ENKEI’s advanced ‘MAT Process,’ the Nissan ARIYA NISMO’s cast-aluminum rims provide a strength-to-weight ratio similar to forged wheels, allowing for thinner spokes to assist with cooling.

Exhilarating acceleration and cornering prowess

The Nissan ARIYA NISMO enhances the performance of the 87kWh Nissan ARIYA e-4ORCE with a specially tuned NISMO powertrain, boosting output to 435 PS (429 HP / 320 kW), an increase of nearly 130 PS. Torque remains a robust 600 Nm, enabling the Nissan ARIYA NISMO to sprint from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in just five seconds, and from 50-70 mph (80-120 km/h) in a swift 2.4 seconds.

However, like all NISMO models, the Nissan ARIYA NISMO is more than just raw speed. With enhancements to its e-4ORCE all-wheel-drive system and additional upgrades, it delivers superior cornering and lateral grip, even surpassing the GT-R NISMO in agility.

The suspension has been thoroughly revamped, with updated stabilisers, spring rates, and shock absorber settings to improve balance, body control, and agility at higher speeds. Additionally, the steering has been recalibrated to offer more resistance and a sharper, more responsive feel as speed increases.

Paired with the inclusion of ‘i-Booster,’ which enhances braking performance through refined regeneration tuning, the Nissan ARIYA NISMO delivers the full excitement and agility expected from NISMO while maintaining a reassuring sense of control. To elevate its driving dynamics further, a new 'NISMO' mode sharpens the car’s responsiveness, making every drive even more engaging and exhilarating.

Crafted for luxury, engineered for comfort

The Nissan ARIYA NISMO boasts a thoughtfully redesigned interior, offering a premium experience from the seating to the refined finishes.

Sport-inspired seats, upholstered in a suede-like material and adorned with stitched NISMO logos, provide enhanced support and a secure, body-hugging feel during intense cornering.

NISMO’s signature style is evident throughout the cabin, with redesigned digital gauges, signature red stitching on the steering wheel, and distinctive NISMO-red accents, creating a sporty yet upscale environment. Adding to the sophisticated feel is a sleek blackened wood texture that enhances the modern, elegant aesthetic of the interior.

Sales Launch

The Nissan ARIYA NISMO will initially be offered in a single launch specification, featuring the NISMO Stealth Grey exterior finish, previously seen on the GT-R. Sales are set to begin in January 2025.

UK customers eager to be among the first to own a right-hand-drive Nissan ARIYA NISMO can secure priority access by reaching out to their local Nissan dealer later this month. Additional details will be provided soon.

Widespread sales are anticipated to start in January 2025 across all European markets where the Nissan ARIYA is currently available, excluding Cyprus, Malta, and Northern Ireland.
