Nissan Unveils Aura Nismo RS Concept: Range-Extending Powertrain Meets Aggressive Performance Kit

At the recently opened Tokyo Auto Salon, Nissan officially unveiled the Aura Nismo RS concept car. Based on the Aura Nismo, the new concept features a range-extended powertrain combining a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with dual electric motors—delivering 201 horsepower to the front axle and 134 horsepower to the rear—and is equipped with Nissan’s e-4ORCE all-wheel-control system to enhance torque response and driving stability. Visually, the concept boasts an aggressive aerodynamic package, including red front, side, and rear bumpers, widened fenders, and a large rear spoiler. Finished in matte gray paint and fitted with lightweight track-oriented wheels, the car delivers a striking visual presence. The V-motion front grille and full-width LED taillights carry over Nissan’s signature design language, while red brake calipers further accentuate its sporty character. Interior details have not yet been disclosed. Reports suggest that a production version of this model could debut first in the Japanese market.
