EV Channels Review

In this head-to-head comparison, the Nissan GT-R NISMO and Honda NSX are pitted against each other to determine Japan's top supercar. The reviewer highlights the GT-R's raw, analog driving experience, praising its aggressive feel, communicative hydraulic steering, and powerful acceleration, ultimately deeming it more of an 'event' and awarding it the win for its personality and 'refreshingly archaic' mechanical nature. While the NSX is commended for its smoother, more refined, and confidence-inspiring hybrid performance, its slightly artificial engine note and less engaging driving dynamics are noted. The GT-R NISMO's superior practicality, with a larger boot and rear seats, is also a significant advantage. Despite the NSX's better braking performance (41m vs 44m) and more comfortable ride, the GT-R NISMO's overall character and driving reward ultimately win out for the reviewer.
