The GT-R is an entirely new model sharing little with the Skyline GT-R, also saved its signature four round tail lights. This car was proved to be iconic for Nissan, as achieved much fame and success on road, track and in motorsports. Nissan GT-R (middle) and some high-performance variants of the Nissan Skylineīetween 19, and again between 19, Nissan produced a high performance version of its Nissan Skyline coupe, called the Nissan Skyline GT-R. After 15 years of production, the GT-R was discontinued worldwide, due to newer regulation changes. Overall body made out of steel, aluminium and premium materials such as carbon-fiber. The production version of the GT-R introduced at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show, along with the PM platform, featured the exclusively developed VR38DETT engine and lot more other newer technologies. In 2006, then-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn determined that the GT-R would be a global icon for the Nissan brand-as, unlike its predecessors which were only sold in Japan, the GT-R would be sold all around the world. The GT-R abbreviation stands for Gran Turismo–Racing, obtained from the Skyline GT-R.

The GT-R is built on the exclusively-developed Nissan PM platform, which is an enhanced evolution of the Nissan FM platform used in the separate Nissan Skyline luxury car and the Nissan Z sports car. Although this car was the sixth-generation model to bear the GT-R name, the model is no longer part of the Nissan Skyline model line up since that name is now reserved for Nissan's luxury-sport vehicles. It is the successor to the Skyline GT-R, a high performance variant of the Nissan Skyline.

The Nissan GT-R (Japanese: 日産・GT-R, Nissan GT-R), is a high-performance sports car and grand tourer produced by Nissan, unveiled in 2007.
