Nissan decided its second-generation LEAF needed a sharper edge. On July 22 the company put the NISMO version on sale in Japan and confirmed the model will reach American showrooms as part of a broader push to expand the performance brand. What arrives is a front-drive electric hatch that keeps the same motors and batteries as the regular car yet feels noticeably different the moment the road starts to twist.

Liberty Walk spotted an opportunity to pay homage to a movie legend using a different Nissan altogether. They selected a Silvia S15 as the starting point for a widebody transformation that echoes the R34 GT-R Brian O’Conner drove in 2 Fast 2 Furious.

Mitsubishi chose to bring back the Eclipse name for its newest electric vehicle. The company unveiled the Eclipse Sportback EV as a compact crossover scheduled to reach North American dealers in the second half of 2026 as a 2027 model. Many who recall the original Eclipse as an affordable, sharp coupe from the 1990s and early 2000s hoped for something with real driving excitement. What arrived instead shares its core engineering with the latest Nissan Leaf.

Liberty Walk has officially completed the first full car in its Final Edition series for the Nissan GT-R, a showpiece that captures everything enthusiasts loved about the model right up until production halted last August. Owariasahi, a Japanese tuner, gave the R35 generation a widebody treatment that reimagined all of the aspects that made the GT-R so popular.

Fans of Japanese sports cars can undoubtedly relate to the sense of missing out. For decades, many people have had a soft spot for the Nissan Silvia. It was the car that appeared, provided sharp handling and a great deal of rear-wheel drive enjoyment, and then vanished after 2002. A new depiction of the car has emerged, with the envisioned S16 model joining its six predecessors in an ultra clean studio scene.
