It's not. No-one is saying it's motorsport only. It's one (likely eye-catching) part of a new brand re-positioning.

Here are the announcement notes as listed a couple of pages back. Look at what's top of the agenda:
  • Nissan's plans for NISMO motorsports and performance arm to be revealed
  • Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn to make announcement in Japan Feb. 26 (Feb. 25 in U.S.)
  • NISMO HQ is a former Nissan factory now redeveloped and expanded
  • Live press conference stream and materials available at 8 p.m. EST, Monday Feb.25 at www.nissan-live.com/nismoglobal
