What's New for the 2027 Nissan Z?
The refreshed 2027 Nissan Z arrives with a restyled front bumper sporting a retro-themed grille that honors earlier Z generations. Nissan has also introduced restyled alloy wheels, alongside a sophisticated Shinkai Green Pearl Metallic exterior paint choice.
Track enthusiasts will celebrate the arrival of a six-speed manual transmission with a short-throw shifter for the NISMO model. To enhance braking stamina on the circuit, the Z NISMO adopts front brake rotors derived from the Nissan GT-R. On the Performance trim, larger monotube shocks provide superior damping control and an improved balance of ride quality and agility.
What Are the 2027 Z Trims & Features?
Shoppers looking at the 2027 Nissan Z can select from three main trim packages: Sport, Performance, and NISMO.
The entry-level Sport trim delivers exhilarating sports car performance with generous equipment. Key standard features include a 12.3-inch full-color digital instrument cluster, an 8.0-inch NissanConnect screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, and LED headlamps featuring integrated daytime running lights.
Taking handling up a notch, the Performance trim adds Akebono four-piston front brakes and a mechanical limited-slip differential. Interior and exterior upgrades include 19-inch forged RAYS alloy wheels, an eight-speaker Bose audio setup, and a 9.0-inch touchscreen display with integrated navigation.
The range-topping Z NISMO features recalibrated steering and suspension geometry along with increased horsepower. Dedicated aerodynamic trim pieces enhance downforce while delivering a remarkably aggressive look.
