In addition, it includes a Bose Audio system with 8 speakers, electrically folding mirrors, 8-inch touch screen, automatic air conditioning, and central analog gauges. In addition, it has NissanConnect Services.
2023 Nissan Z: Safety

Nissan Z 2023: Versions and prices
- TOURING MT $1,349,900 MXN
- TOURING AT $1,349,900 MXN
The new Nissan Z 2023 arrives in Mexico to face the Toyota Supra head-on, a two-seater sports car with similar characteristics. Although indirectly it would also be necessary to add to the Ford Mustang Mach 1, even if it is 2+2. Undoubtedly, the strong cards of the “Z” lie in the design, as well as the fun handling, very old-fashioned. Only the price could be slightly higher than expected.
