How to Watch the Nissan Z Proto Make Its Debut

The prototype for the next-generation Nissan Z will be revealed live at 8:30 p.m. ET on the Nissan website.

• Nissan is set to reveal the Z Proto tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. ET live on its own website.
• The reveal of the Z Proto will give us a good idea of what is in line for the production version of the forthcoming Z.
• To watch the reveal, go to Nissan's website.

The Nissan Z Proto is set to be revealed in full on Tuesday, September 15, and will give us a first look at what the redesigned Nissan Z will look like. The live debut is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. ET on the Nissan website.

Nissan has built up the anticipation for the new sports car with several teasers, including ones that revealed the Z could have a manual transmission. Other teasers revealed how the Z Proto will sport a design that is at least partly influenced by the Zs of the past, showing off its 240Z-inspired headlights and 300ZX-inspired taillights.

While Nissan has held off on sharing many other details, we speculate that the Z Proto will be powered by the engine found in the Infiniti Q50 and Q60 Red Sport, a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6. That powerplant will churn out either 300 or 400 horsepower—it differs based on which Infiniti it sits in—and we aren't sure which one will be in the Z Proto. We'll tell you much more once the prototype is revealed on Tuesday.
