Remember when the replacement of the 370Z was supposed to arrive as a concept at this year's Tokyo Motor Show?
Well, you might want to forget about that, because the automaker reportedly has no plans of introducing such a study anytime soon, according to Motoring, who spoke with the former Nissan Australia Managing Director, Richard Emery, last week.
Mr. Emery said "even we don't know", when asked about a new Z Concept that should have debuted at the Japanese automotive event in late October, adding that they "would know if there was something pending, so there's nothing pending, not anytime soon".
As far as the current 370Z goes, it will live on for a few more years, as despite being 8 years old, "sports cars do tend to have long life cycles", Emery added. "It's certainly at the end of its life cycle, but whether it's got two years left, or four years left, at this point I don’t have anything to the contrary to suggest it's not got a few more years left in it."
This report comes just a few days after Nissan unveiled the 2018 370Z in Europe, which benefits from a few visual enhancements on the outside and in the cabin, new wheels, and a fresh red paint. It also gets a new high-performance clutch, and the latest infotainment system with a 7-inch display, but the 3.7-liter V6 engine remains untouched.
These upgrades only apply to the 2018 Nissan 370Z Coupe, as the 370Z Roadster and 370Z Nismo remain on sale without them.
