What's New for the 2026 Nissan Z?
Nissan is celebrating the heritage of the fourth-generation Z by adding the new Heritage Edition to the lineup. This model showcases an exclusive Midnight Purple finish complemented by bold bronze-alloy wheels. Retro "Twin Turbo" graphics enhance its classic-inspired design, and a carbon-fiber ducktail spoiler gives the rear a performance-focused touch. The Z Sport and Performance trims also receive a fresh Boulder Gray paint option paired with a contrasting black roof.

The Performance trim steps things up with larger brakes and a mechanical limited-slip differential. It also includes added comfort and technology like power-adjustable seats, leather-appointed seating, a premium eight-speaker Bose sound system, a 9.0-inch navigation-equipped touchscreen, and wireless smartphone pairing.
The Heritage Edition makes a bold impression with exclusive styling elements you won't find on other trims.
Designed for enthusiasts, the NISMO trim raises the bar with a high-performance oil cooler, NISMO-tuned suspension, and supportive Recaro front bucket seats that enhance its track-focused attitude.
