This engine generates 200hp to 250hp and will be mated to a six-speed manual transmission channeling power to the rear wheels. This 163.7-inches long car, with a wheelbase of 101.2 inches is slightly shorter than the Nissan 370Z, but the two cars do have a very slight similarity in their looks. With the two companies working together, the concept has a common chassis and parts.

The car is expected to head to production in late 2011 in Japan, with subsequent market roll-outs to follow, priced around the $25,000 mark.
