2012 Nissan Juke-R Review
2012 Nissan Juke-R Review - The 485bhp Nissan Juke-R is driven. The moment has finally come for Juke-R to hit the track! With the build complete, engineers take Juke-R to MIRA proving ground to check all systems work correctly before heading to Silver stone to push the car's limits. It looks like a Juke but sounds like a GT-R, and performs like one on its first circuit tests. If anyone whines that the car industry's lacking a sense of humour, print out the next sentence, roll it up tightly and hit them in the face with it. Nissan has built two street-legal GT-R-powered Juke concepts.
But there's a good chance you already know that - for the last few months, Nissan's been trickle-feeding the internet with tantalising videos of a hollowed Juke shell being offered the fun bits of a four-wheel drive, 485bhp GT-R. You'll also know that the collision between supercar and lifestyley shopping cart's been an extensive one, carried out in just 22 weeks by race engineers, RML.
