Production 400Z expected when?

[SPOHN]

The Z ( what I’m calling it for now ) has to be coming 2021. I looked at several dealer sites and Nissan USA and usually 2021 models would of already been released this late in the year if they were going to continue one more year of the 370. They have nothing listed. I know it’s not a shocking idea but if we can safely say another 370 production is not coming. How soon will it come, Spring...... Fall? How long are they willing to stop any production on the 370 or the new Z? Food for thought.

If ever Nissan decides to update their fans or potential buyers with the full update hopefully all the information will be given and production will follow very shortly after.

Where does the time go? The Sleuth finds it hard to believe that it has been a half century since the original 240Z arrived on our shores. He’s happy to report, however, that a new Z that was recently displayed in near-finished form called the Z Proto will arrive sometime next spring as a 2022 model.

I remember that article. I quickly dismissed it. I know Nissan is in a financial hardship and is in the process of revamping their whole lineup pretty much. Holding out until 2022 is not that smart either even though the Z is not a top of the line seller. Even if Nissan ends up facing a hard-core financial crisis somebody’s going to come together and help them out.

I was accepting at first, but I am starting to get frustrated. I thought by December we'd get some more information.

I’d like to think new information would be coming soon. From a financial point it adds up. The new Z announcement obviously had to put a stop on sales and any production of the 370. Time to prepare for some mild retooling and production. The economy is up and they need to push IMO to capitalize.

I get the frustration and I don’t get the delay in details either. I would expect those very soon at one of the upcoming auto shows. One thing we do know is that the new Z is coming. In terms of when, last word I heard was based on a Nissan vendor (production of parts) saying they’ve been told September.

Nissan Won’t Make A 2021 370Z As We Wait For 2022 400Z

As Nissan prepares to usher its next generation Z car into the world, the last one will be discontinued for 2021.

That’s according to Motor Authority, which spoke to a Nissan spokesperson. If you’re interested in getting (what will likely be a pretty good deal on) a 370Z, though, you’re still in luck.

Nissan has pushed the 2020 model-year cars into 2021, so there will still be some on dealer lots. The brand is expected to fully unveil the new Z car at some point this year and it will be sold for the 2022 mode year.

The new Z car is rumored to be called the 400Z and, indeed, trademark filings would suggest that that’s at least an option. Under the hood, meanwhile, the same twin-turbo V6 that powers the Q60 coupe is expected, as is a six-speed manual transmission.

Nissan is also expected to make the 400Z a little nicer inside to help it move upmarket and compete with the Supra. That would mean that it has to compete with a car that makes 382 hp and 368 lb-ft of torque. That shouldn’t be too hard to achieve, since the Q60 Red Sport makes 400 hp.

As for looks, Nissan has already given us a big hint as to what it wants to build with the Z Proto, the concept form of the new Z car. Indeed, it seems that the Z Proto was a fairly close-to-production concept because patent filings filed by Nissan have shown a car that looks almost identical to it.

Exactly when the new car will be revealed has not yet been made clear, unfortunately.

From what I have gathered, it will be late 2021 as 2022 model.
With chip shortage into 2022, nothing is confirmed 100%.

Tend to agree, it will be a 22 MY and available late 21 or early 22, but I am just guessing...

I think Nissan is wrapping up production of the current Z.

I think the 23rd sounds like a real possibility, given my dealer has already started taking deposits
