Nissan GT-R Powered 'Super Juke' Under Development
The much maligned styling of the Nissan Juke is in many ways overcome by its impressive driving characteristics. Still not convinced? Then perhaps the Nissan GT-R powered ‘Super Juke’ will help change your mind.
Under development by Nissan Europe, the car will use the very same twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 engine as Godzilla, making around 480-hp. With a stripped down interior this wildly modified machine should be able to hot 60 mph in less than 4.0 seconds. Who needs a Bentley-powered VW Golf anyway?
Look for the car to sport flared fenders, a new front splitter, rear diffuser and some upgraded wheels, tires and brakes.
Built as a one-off project, the car is expected to debut before year’s end. We just hope it makes its way across the pond for SEMA.
