Juke R 2.0 is Launched by Nissan

KUALA LUMPUR: Nissan has launched an upgraded version of supercar, which is the Nissan Juke R 2.0 at Goodwood Festival of Speed.

“ The Juke-R has become an iconic Crossover supercar, and with the launch of the latest Juke model last year, it was the natural choice to upgrade the original Juke-R with added power and even bolder styling. The Juke-R 2.0 is a perfect 'crossover' of the best bits of Nissan- real innovation showcasing our Crossover prowess fused with the excitement of the GT-R super engine.” said by Gareth Dunsmore, General Manager of Nissan Europe Marketing Communications.

On the basis of updated 2014 Juke, the new Nissan Juke R 2.0 is unveiled, having few designs and technical developments providing more bolder, muscular and powerful version of its former version. It is having a new carbon-fibre front and rear bumpers, carbon diffuser and larger air vents. The 3.8-litre V6 twin-turbo engine of GT-R is there under the bonnet, which produces 600 hp and 652 Nm of torque.
