Nissan PH defers reservation period for Z to next month

Nissan Philippines Incorporated (NPI) has deferred the reservation period for yet-to-be-released Z to next month.

NPI President Juan Manuel Hoyos made the announcement on September 21 — the supposed starting date for the model’s pre-orders.

According to him, the pre-selling has been moved as Nissan Philippines and the Department of Trade and Industry are still ironing out the reservation mechanics, which is expected to be out by mid-November this year.

With the said adjustment, Hoyos apologized to its customers for the delay.

To note, the all-new Nissan Z is powered by a 3.0-liter turbo gasoline mill that can deliver as much as 400 horsepower and 475 Newton-meters of torque. Its powertrain is matched to either six-speed manual gearbox or a nine-speed automatic transmission with manual mode — depending on the trim chosen.

Further, the all-new Nissan Z is equipped with improved suspension and brakes system, as well as rear view monitor, a digital dashboard on Sport Mode, and front and rear sonar sensors.

In addition, the sports car has Nissan Intelligent Mobility features, which include forward crash warning, intelligent cruise control, anti-lock braking system and traction system, an advanced airbag system, and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection.

Available in Ikazuchi Yellow, Passion Red, Everest White, Boulder Gray Pearl, Seiran Blue, and Black Diamond Pearl, the all-new Nissan Z wears a P3.888-million price tag.
