It is the fastest "crossover" in the world. Sprint 0-100 km / h the 3 "7.
How to define it, the
Juke-R prepared by
Nissan Europe? A joke? A tutorial? A bet? A challenge? Already, a challenge: that of creating the worlds fastest crossover. And here they are, the Juke-R performance: top speed 257 km / h, acceleration or 100 km / h in 3 "7. Gran turismo racing stuff.
To achieve
the Juke-R has thought a company specializing in high-level motor racing: the English Ray Mallock, who prepares, but rather builds, and supports the successful sedan Chevrolet Cruze Official Team Championship World Tourism .
For the
Juke-R, Mallock engineers and those of
Nissan Europe have used the 3.8 liter V6 twin turbo engine from 485 horsepower in the coupe GT-R, provided a special "roll-bar", which in addition to the natural functions of ensuring the safety pilot is actually a second chassis, suspension and mounted the entire gearbox-transmission GT-R, lightened as I could get to a weight of 1800 kg, and widened body to accommodate the large 20-inch wheels. They then developed the aerodynamic configuration.
The preparation and assembly of
the Juke-R has involved four months of work. So the tests in England, on circuto Silverstone. And the record-breaking performance.
