The Nissan Juke-R is back in a 2.0 version which will make its dynamic debut at Goodwood FoS this weekend.
As we assumed, world's first crossover supercar has gained the GT-R NISMO's twin-turbo V6 3.8-liter engine which delivers a massive 600 PS (441 kW) and 652 Nm (481 lb-ft) of torque, making it substantially more powerful than the original Juke-R which had “only” 492 PS. Performance numbers have not been disclosed, but it should be a lot quicker than its predecessor which needed 3.7 seconds until 62 mph (100 km/h) and topped out at 160 mph (257 km/h).
Aside from receiving a more powerful engine, the Juke-R 2.0 comes with a different body featuring a new carbon fiber front bumper with larger air vents providing extra cooling to match the engine's increased output. The new rear bumper is also made from carbon fiber and comes with a carbon diffuser while the taillights have been taken from the regular 2015 Juke.
Also from the standard model are the front fenders, hood (with bare carbon cooling ducts), upper and lower headlights while the carbon fiber side sills have been modified as well. Other changes include redesigned front & rear wheel arch flares as well as a black headliner inside the cabin.
Nissan currently refers to the Juke-R 2.0 as a concept and don't say a word about the possibility of a production model. We remind you the old one was priced at $590,000 and only a handful of units were made.
