The New Nissan GT-R has appeared as the 2013 model with the outstanding features in performance, efficiency and refinement. By improving the GT-R's engine efficiency, its fuel economy has been raised to 8.6km/ℓ (tested under Japan's 10-15 mode) or 8.7km/ℓ (in JC08 mode) and reduced CO2 emissions (267g/km in JC08 and 270g/km in 10-15model), while engine output has been significantly improved to 404kW (550ps)/6,400rpm with maximum torque of 632Nm (64.5kgm) from 3,200 to 5,800 rpm.

To improve intake efficiency, air flow resistance has been reduced by adding an intake manifold fitted to the head of each unit and the use of resin in the enlarged air intake duct for the intercooler.

A more compact underfloor catalyzer enabled to reduce air flow resistance. A newly-designed metallic sodium-filled valve has been adopted to improve exhaust valve cooling performance while valve control timing, the air mixture ratio and ignition timing have also been improved.
