Car Porn : Nissan Juke-R is faster than 458 Italia and SLS AMG

[VIDEO] Nissan Juke-R is faster than 458 Italia and SLS AMG

The Nissan Juke-R has been placed into the spotlights once again after being raced in a side show event for the Dunlop 24 Hours of Dubai, which took place over a week ago.
As you can see from the video posted below, the Nissan Juke-R is taking on a Ferrari 458 Italia, a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and a Lamborghini Gallardo on an improvised sprint track which isn’t that long. Besides taking on the three supercars with its small crossover body, the Nissan Juke-R is actually faster than its “competitors” and it can really go around a corner. The winner of the first GTAcademy 2008, Lucas Ordonez, was driving the Juke-R, so his skills mustn’t go away unseen.
As a reminder, the 2012 Nissan Juke R is using the GT-R’s 3.8 liter bi-turbocharged V6 engine which is developing a total output of 480 horsepower on the sports car, along with its all-wheel drive system, gearbox and suspension, so the engineers really know what they’re doing if they have managed to squeeze all of that into the small crossover. The Juke-R is also coming with a race-spec roll cage which is replacing the rear seats, two racing seats, a GT-R sourced steering wheel, a seven-inch touch screen, pedals and dials.

Rides : Nissan Juke-R official images released


[PHOTO GALLERY] Nissan Juke-R official images released

Nissan is placing the Juke-R into the spotlights once again by releasing new and official images of its small fast crossover.
After the Japanese based automaker has released, only a day ago, the first video of the Juke-R which is actually worth watching, Nissan is keeping us busy once again after “giving us” some new official images of its powerful urban crossover. We can’t really understand why is everyone in a frenzy with the Nissan Juke-R, it’s not like the model will be hitting the production line in more than 2 units and it’s not like they’re cheap, cool, good looking and so on, they will be based on the Nissan GT-R, and frankly, that’s one hot car, but I don’t see anyone even remembering that. Now all it remains will be tuners offering the “Nissan Juke-R upgrade kit” for your dull crossover.

Car Porn : Nissan JUKE-R - Shakedown and Testing(Video)


[VIDEO] This is the first Nissan Juke-R video worth watching

A Nissan Juke-R video of the small crossover hitting the track with its GT-R powertrain has recently been released by the Japanese based automaker.
After the Juke-R kept the headlines of the automotive media for months now, the crossover finally appears to be finished and as the manufacturer kept talking about it, we honestly didn’t think that we would see it hitting the track in our lifetimes. But to cut the small talk, this is actually the first video of the Nissan Juke-R which is worth watching.
