Nissan Juke-R: Insane Super Crossover with 530HP GT-R Powertrain



If you thought that the design of the Nissan Juke was to push the envelope a bit 'too much, waiting to see what the engineers are preparing the Japanese automaker. Meet The Juke-R Nissan, one of the craziest ideas that we heard a long, long time. And yes, the "R" is the name of what you think is the heart and soul ... Godzilla!

A team of more Nissan Europe had the bright idea of ​​mounting the small crossover Juke with the engine and the transmission of the last GT-R. The street legal prototype is being developed by Nissan and built by RML Motorsport keeping with the contribution of Nissan Technology Centre Europe (NTC-E).

Lying under the hood, the GT-R 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 in standard form, generates 530 horsepower at 6400 rpm and 612Nm (£ 451.4 ft.) of maximum torque between 3200 and 6000 rpm.

Engineers at Nissan Godzilla is mounted six-speed in the trunk, while the front and rear ends are connected by a kinematic chain modified GT-R 4WD and drive axle.

The Japanese company plans to change the outside with a lot of aerodynamic kit of carbon fiber GT-R includes several styling touches, such as hood and rear spoiler, while the Juke-R will run in 20-inch RAYS forged alloy wheels wrapped around high-yield bonds.

The Board is the Scoreboard Juke standard was amended to accommodate gauges, rings and 7-inch LCD custom GT-R. The driver and passenger get race seats with five anchor points, while the rear seats were removed to place a race FIA ​​specification roll cage.

"Juke is perfect for sports and a derivative of Juke-R explores this territory," said Paul Willcox, vice president of Sales and Marketing, Nissan Europe.

"Equally at home on road and track, Juke-R has two of the most exciting cars in our range, and emphasizes technological innovation, which drives the Nissan. This car will be more than up to the standard dynamic design experience guide for all the cars, "he added.

Nissan said it plans to construct two examples of the Juke-R, one of the drives on the left and one right-hand drive. Although there is currently no plan to produce, we would not be surprised if Nissan went ahead and built to limited production, if there is enough interest from the public.
