New Film Series Takes an Inside Look at Nissan’s Development of the DeltaWing

Posted on April 13, 2012 by James Ceranti Nissan

Nissan will be putting their new racing vehicle, the DeltaWing, on the big stage with a full film documentary about the design and build of the vehicle. Just as they did with the Juke-R last year, Nissan will be having episodes surrounding the development of the DeltaWing.

The new film series will have a new episode around every two weeks leading up to the Le Mans in June. A complete TV documentary will follow the Le Mans race. A film crew has followed DeltaWing designer Ben Bowlby and his team as the racing machine was built including the engine being developed.

Ben Bowlby said, “We’ve had the Nissan film crew following our every move throughout the development of the car over the past few months and this will give the fans a great insight into the creation of the Nissan DeltaWing. It was a bit strange at first to have a camera poked under our nose all the time but, after a while, the guys really felt like part of the team.

The first episode is based around the DeltaWing getting prepped for the wind tunnel. The aerodynamic results from the wind tunnel test will determine if the DeltaWing is designed to be a success or failure. Enjoy!

After a complete overhaul for the 2012 model, the Nissan Versa sedan earned its first-ever Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

The IIHS Top Safety Pick rating was given to the Versa sedan for earning the highest rating of “Good” on all four tests performed by the IIHS.
