Nissan is celebrating the 40th anniversary of NISMO, its high-performance and motorsports division, which was established on September 17, 1984.
Originally based in Omori, Tokyo, NISMO has been integral to Nissan’s most exciting road and race cars, embodying the “Track to road” philosophy—translating race performance into everyday driving.
To commemorate this milestone, Nissan’s Global Headquarters Gallery in Yokohama is hosting an exhibition showcasing iconic NISMO road and race cars.
