1.341 HP, Evolution of the Legendary GT-R in the Electric Age, New Nissan Hyper FORCE

This 1,000 kW halo sports car concept represents the next evolution of the legendary GT-R nameplate in the electric age

Nissan has just introduced the Hyper Force, an all-electric sports car with 1,341 hp (1,000 kW) and plenty of GT-R DNA, although the company playfully avoids mentioning it directly, it's everywhere, even pixelated You can even see it on the screens.

The concept features Nissan's e-4ORCE all-wheel drive technology, lightweight construction and a solid-state battery.

According to the automaker, this concept aims to appeal to both racing enthusiasts and gamers. While Nissan didn't offer very in-depth details or specs about the Hyper Force, it was clear on a few key points. It benefits from “optimal weight balance” and lightweight carbon construction, including carbon fiber rims.

Hyper Force also has a few super futuristic features that will help differentiate it from the other render-only concept crowd. This includes the canard-shaped active aero, front lip, rear spoiler and fender vents. Nissan even boasts of a "newly developed plasma actuator" that suppresses air separation to minimize inside wheel lift during cornering.

The cabin also features an adaptive infotainment screen that looks like it came straight out of a video game, and so it should. It was developed in partnership with Gran Turismo developer Polyphony Digital. In R mode, Hyper Force illuminates the cabin with red ambient light, and panels on the dashboard extend towards the driver to provide vital race data.

In GT mode, many of these panels fade into the background, the cabin turns blue, and a set of much simpler screens lighten the load. The driver still has full access to climate controls, audio, suspension and stabilizer settings.

Once the vehicle is parked, drivers can use a special helmet to compete in virtual racing experiences while using the real (if they have one) steering wheel and pedals. But that's not the only gamification in Hyper Force. Nissan is combining skeleton visors and augmented reality in the car to project digital ghosts onto tracks for drivers to try to catch up with or pass on the track.
