Nissan Team Answers Facebook Fans' Questions on the Juke R


There's no question that the Nissan Juke R is by far the craziest, official manufacture project we saw this year, and how could it not be when a team of engineers shoehorned the entire drive train and then some more of the almighty GT-R into the firm's odd-looking small crossover.

Not surprisingly, Nissan is trying to milk as much attention as it can from its creation with a constant stream of news and videos.

In this latest clip, the team responsible for the development of the Juke R answers several questions about the car that it received from fans on its official Facebook page. You can watch the clip and find out what they answered right after the break.

The 2012 edition of Japan's largest annual aftermarket event, the Tokyo Auto Salon, will see Nissan in cooperation with its in-house tuners Autech Japan and NISMO presenting 10 models, most of which we've already seen in previous shows such as the Juke NISMO Concept that was displayed at the Tokyo Motor Show earlier this month.

Nissan will showcase two models, the GT-R Pure Edition equipped with the right-hand drive only Track Pack and the JDM Skyline (sold in the rest if the world as the Infiniti G37) 55th Limited Edition, which commemorates the series' 55th anniversary and features bespoke aeroparts and a sportier chassis setup.

Nissan Juke-R Video No10: Time for a Shakedown and Testing


Nissan's quest for Youtube views continues with the 10th installment of its web-based video series that follows the development of the most awesome and powerful Juke made to date, the GT-R-powered Juke R project car.

Having done showing us the styling aspects and the building process of the Juke-R, the Japanese firm is now focusing on the fine-tuning and the testing of the 485-horsepower crossover on the track.

485HP Nissan Juke-R Hits the Silverstone Circuit Earlier than Expected [Video]



We're not sure if this video of the Nissan Juke R being tested at the Silverstone race track in England was supposed to hit the airwaves (or so to speak) before the Japanese firm's upcoming 10th installment of its web series, but we're not the ones to complain. At least for the video footage, that is, because someone ought to inform the auto buffs over at Spain's AutoHebdo Sport that when you show a video of a car like the Juke-R that's fitted with a 485HP-strong powerplant sourced from the GT-R, you shouldn't add any background music let alone, a techno beat…
Nevertheless, you can hop over the break to enjoy the first video of the Juke-R project car in action.
