Nissan GT-R’s Electric Successor Showcased – Features Solid-State Batteries | V3Cars

Nissan Hyper Force Previewed With Solid State Batteries   

Right off the bat, the Hyper Force borrows several design cues from the R35 GT-R and Skylines of the past. Designed with input from the Nismo racing team, the Hyper Force features an evolution of the R35’s side profile and twin round tail lights. Other highlights include active front winglets, dual-level rear diffuser and a “plasma actuator” that “suppress air detachment” to maximise grip. A lot of the details are very arcade game-like, however, there are a few bits that give us a clue about Nissan’s electric future. 

Beyond its array of gaming and gadgetry elements, the Hyper Force concept underscores Nissan's commitment to initiate solid-state battery production. In early 2023, reports suggested that Nissan’s Yokohama Plant could soon start pilot production of solid state batteries for Nissan’s upcoming range of electric vehicles soon. Solid-state batteries are often regarded as the "unicorn" of electric vehicle battery technology. They hold the promise of achieving significantly higher energy density while maintaining safety standards. Despite numerous auto manufacturers and tech companies making pledges about solid-state batteries over the past few years, none have managed to bring them to the market thus far. Nissan says they could commence mass production of solid state batteries by 2028, and introduce the first solid-state EV in the same year. So we could see an all-new full-electric GT-R with design elements borrowed from the Hyper Force concept before 2030.
