Nissan Making 17 Nissan Jukes With Nismo GT-R Running Gear - The Art of Gears

Not many people actually thought Nissan was serious about producing this hellraiser, but they weren’t kidding. Mind you, this is the same car company that produces the soft-spoken all-electric Nissan Leaf. Most important is the fact that it has 600 HP and 480 lb-ft of torque thanks to two turbochargers from Nissan’s GT3 Class GT-R. There’s plenty of carbon fiber to save weight and the Juke has spent a bit of time in the wind tunnel to extract as much slipperiness out of the wedge shaped Juke as possible. Fortunately for us, there’s a bit of footage of the Nissan Juke R making its way up the famous Goodwood hill for the world to enjoy. Would you buy a half million dollar Juke when you can just buy a Nismo GT-R for far less. Source: artofgears.com
