The Nissan Silvia is looking at a full redesign for the upcoming, 2017 version. We are already looking forward to new design features, cutting edge technologies and fine, luxurious materials on the inside. All in all, we are looking at one fine sports car.
2017 Nissan Silvia Release Date
Unfortunately, Nissan is keeping quiet about a multitude of details regarding the new 2017 redesign, and the final release date is one of them.
Since the car is still very much the work in the making, it is hard to hazard a guess as to when it is going to hit the showrooms as well as the streets.
Still, if we consider the time schedule of previous models as well as previous Nissan experience, it is safe to assume the 2017 model should be out by the end of next year.
Price for 2017 Nissan Silvia
The price tag on the 2017 Nissan Silvia is also going to be a secret to the very end, although this part is a lot easier to estimate at least.
Previous models would usually start at $20-25.000 for the base version, plus any additional equipment and shipping costs. The 2017 version should be no exception.
Exterior of Nissan Silvia
On the outside, it seems the 2017 Nissan Silvia is going to be completely and utterly beyond reproach. The information is scarce at the moment, but it looks like the new Silvia is looking at some serious work done to her body.
The overall vibe the designers are going for is both appealing and aggressive, and by the looks of things, it seems they are definitely doing something right.
It is not that previous versions were lacking, it’s just they were unable to achieve a more popular status with the customers.Hopefully, some cosmetic changes and an aggressive ad campaign will see to that.
Nissan Silvia 2017 Interior
If the outside of the new Silvia is a mystery, then its interior is a real conundrum. According to rumors, the cabin is expected to be as spacious as it gets, with ample room for five people.
Needless to say, no expense will be spared as far as upholstery and other materials go, so we should expect lots o fine leather and loads of gadgets.
Navigation system, latest infotainment and Bluetooth are a given at this point, but unfortunately, few things are confirmed at this point. As for the driving experience, Nissan has yet to disappoint us.
Engine
As far as engines go, the new 2017 Nissan Silvia is most likely going to feature either a 1.2 L supercharged or a 1.6 L turbocharged engine, which should in turn enable some pleasant driving experience without sacrificing fuel efficiency.
Either way, the power output is estimated at 200 horsepower, which is well within the range of its class. Of course, if the rumors regarding a more powerful, 2.0 L engine are true, the power output will likely be even higher.
The torque is around 271 lb-ft. The main alternative would be the 1.8 L RWD with 156 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque.
