2020 370Z NISMO Safety

High-end, low-volume sports cars are generally not evaluated by the NHTSA or the IIHS for their crashworthiness, and the Nissan 370Z Nismo Coupe is no exception. No iteration or recent model year of any 370Z Coupe has been evaluated by either authority, let alone the Nismo.

2020 370Z NISMO Key Safety Features

The Nismo lacks even a single advanced driver assist, which is disappointing considering its performance-based nature. A consignment of six standard airbags is stock, including seat-mounted side-impact supplementals and a pair of roof-mounted side-curtain airbags. A traction control system with vehicle dynamic control, cruise control, and tire pressure monitoring system come equipped as standard. If it wasn't made federally required, the Nismo would likely have skipped out on even a basic rearview camera, but fortunately, this time, the law is on our side.

2020 370Z NISMO Reliability

Even though the Nismo is a relatively new model within the 370Z line-up, the 370 itself has been around for 11 years now, suffering a fair few recalls along the way. Fortunately, for 2020 there are no recalls for the Nismo. The last model subject to a major recall was the 2018 year model, which had an incorrectly installed curtain airbag that would potentially fail to deploy in the event of an accident. Nissan covers the 2020 370Z Nismo with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. That's about on par with what rival manufacturers are offering with their new vehicles.
