The quirky subcompact crossover. The Juke-R stuffed in a GT-R drivetrain.
The Nissan Juke is a subcompact crossover famous for its polarizing, bug-eyed styling that stood out in a sea of conventional small SUVs. Offered with turbocharged engines and available all-wheel drive, the Juke had a sportier character than most subcompacts, with the NISMO versions adding more power and aggressive styling. The legendary one-off and limited Juke-R combined the Juke body with the GT-R twin-turbo V6 and all-wheel-drive system, creating a 545-plus horsepower pocket monster. The standard Juke remains a distinctive, fun small crossover. On WhipJury, Juke submissions favor NISMO and turbocharged builds.
