Nissa’s top execs in Japan might not approve the Juke-R, but we sure do. How can you not love a Juke with a GT-R powertrain? So, the fact that we’ve got a crossover with a twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 is excellent, but what does this mean on the road?
Nissan has decided to officially answer this question by releasing the vehicle’s performance specs. We have to take into consideration that, while the Juke is taller than the GT-R, it is lighter. So, how do these variables contribute to the performance?
The Juke-R needs 3.7 seconds to play the 0 to 62 mph sprint game, while its top speed sits at 160 mph (257 km/h). This might be a far cry from the top of the range Juke we tested, which comes with figures of 8.6 seconds and 124 mph (200 km/h), but it’ still not a match for Godzilla's performance. The GT-R from which the powertrain was borrowed needs 3.5 seconds to complete the 0 to 62 mph sprint and offers a top speed of 193 mph (311 km/h).
