Missed seeing a two-door sports coupe from Nissan in Singapore? So have we. Thankfully, however, that drought looks set to end very soon, when 2026 swings around.<\/p>\n
Sgcarmart has learned from Nissan’s local authorised dealer, Tan Chong Motor Sales, that the seventh-generation Nissan Z-car will be taking a stand at the 2026 Singapore Motor Show come January.\u00a0<\/p>\n
While the two-door coupe is officially known as the Nissan Z in international markets, it will follow its nomenclature in its domestic market of Japan, and be branded as the Nissan Fairlady Z when it arrives here.<\/p>\n

While Sgcarmart understands that Tan Chong Motor Sales is aiming to sell the car eventually in Singapore, no other details – in terms of specification or pricing \u2014 have been revealed yet thus far.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, it’s worth noting that the Fairlady Z carries the torch forward faithfully for past iterations with a delightfully old-school setup \u2014 albeit with a slight twist.<\/p>\n
Shedding the natural aspiration of past Z-cars, under the coupe’s hood lies a 3.0-litre, twin-turbo V6 engine capable of 400bhp at 6,400rpm, with peak torque of 475Nm arriving between 1,600rpm to 5,600rpm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Power is sent solely to the rear wheels via either a nine-speed automatic, or six-speed manual transmission. (Nissan also sells the track-oriented Z NISMO in the US, which bumps the power up to 414bhp and 525Nm, amidst other performance upgrades.)<\/p>\n

Longtime Z-car fans will likely also delight in the styling of this seventh-generation car, which draws heavy inspiration from its forebears. Most notable is the full-width black band on its rear end, which incorporates rear combination lamps that call to mind those on the Z32 300ZX.<\/p>\n
Amidst these retro cues, official press photos internationally have pointed to a cabin that thoroughly infuses elements expected of a modern car, including an 8.0-inch touch infotainment display, and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, the Fairlady Z will retain its driver focus with three distinctive ‘analog pod gauges’ \u2014 angled towards the driver \u2014 functioning as always-there displays for the car’s turbocharger boost, turbo speed, and as the voltmeter.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Sgcarmart, Tan Chong Motor Sales shared in a statement: “For over half a century, the Nissan Fairlady Z has stood as an icon of performance, design, and driving passion, a name that has shaped sports-car culture around the world. To celebrate this rich legacy and strengthen Nissan’s presence in Singapore, Tan Chong Motor Sales will proudly unveil the latest Nissan Fairlady Z at the 2026 Singapore Motorshow.”<\/p>\n
Continuing, the company stated, “This marks a rare opportunity for Singapore audiences to witness the evolution of a legend, brought to life through its timeless heritage and modern innovation.”<\/p>\n
