Nissan/NISMO announces 2023 motorsports programs

YOKOHAMA, Japan – Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. and Nissan Motorsports & Customizing Co., Ltd. today announced the outline of their motorsports activities for 2023.

“At Nissan, we challenge ourselves and dare to do what others don’t,” said #ashwanigupta, Nissan COO. “We are proud of our achievements on the track last year in the Super GT series. This season, in #formulae, Nissan will compete with a newly developed Gen3 powertrain, which we are also supplying to McLaren. Also, the newly developed Z GT4 will race in the US and Japan. Motorsport is a test bed that pushes our engineering and manufacturing expertise to the next level of excellence. But it also is our passion, and we want to share this passion and excitement with more fans around the world”.

In addition to ABB FIA #formulae World Championship and Super GT GT500 class, which are the two pillars of Nissan’s motorsports activities, NMC’s NISMO #racing Division (NISMO) will start their customer #racing programs for the Nissan Z GT4 and provide technical support. NISMO will also continue to provide support for teams using the Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3, other Nissan vehicles, and engines in their motorsport activities.

Works Programs
ABB FIA #formulae World Championship
Nissan races in the ABB FIA #formulae World Championship to bring the excitement and fun of zero-emission electric vehicles to a global audience. Nissan’s fifth year of competition in the #formulae is already underway, and the #formulae Season 9 (2022/23) marks the first time Nissan will compete as Nissan #formulae Team.

There are also big changes to the #formulae cars, with the highly anticipated Gen3 era of the sport beginning this season. The new regulations allow for more power and higher speeds, with a striking arrow-like design. The team applied a bold livery featuring a cherry blossom pattern, symbolising a new beginning. For Season 9, the team has decided to mix experience with youth in its driver line-up, pairing 30-year-old #formulae race winner Norman Nato with 23-year-old Super Formula runner-up Sacha Fenestraz.

SUPER GT GT500 class
Nissan/NISMO will continue to take part in Super GT GT500 class with the Nissan Z GT500, which was developed based on the Nissan Z that symbolizes the Nissan’s DNA to take on challenges. The teams aim to win this championship—which features the world’s fastest GT cars—two years in a row, and to deliver even more excitement through innovation to fans.

Motohiro Matsumura will continue to serve as the executive director of the Nissan GT500 teams.
