Why the "Hel" name?
The Nissan GT-R is commonly called "Godzilla", or "king of the monsters". So what would be a better fit than Hel, the half giant queen-ruler of the underworld. Daughter of Thor's brother. Linking Hel perfectly in Norse Mythology to our world's highest power-to-mass ratio OEM circuit racing engine, Thor.
