Juke Gt R Creates 545Hp Cover

Dr. Frankenstein would be envious of this unholy marriage of a diminutive crossover SUV and a muscular world-conquering supercar. Nissan UK performed a GT-R driveline swap on a Juke to create a cool concept but the project took off. The conversion included widening the body 5.7 inches, major chassis reinforcement, a rollcage and aerodynamic enhancements. The Juke-R got mad attention when filming an online movie in Dubai. In fact, people were making offers for the one-off concept right on the street. The offers were serious enough to spur Nissan to move the vehicle into limited production. Consequently, there are three of the built-to-order, 545 horsepower pocket rockets in the works. See the movie that started it all at facebook.com/NissanJukeOfficial. Desert Nemesis follows Nissan’s inaugural GT Academy winner, Lucas Ordonez, as he takes on the world’s best supercars in a thrilling street race, reminiscent of ‘Need for Speed’ through the roads of Dubai’s exclusive International Marina Club.
