Nissan surprised an unwary audience at an unrelated crossover media launch in Malaga, Spain, with the reveal of the first finished prototype of the Juke-R concept in the metal.
The Japanese company plans to build two examples of the Juke-R in left- and right-hand drive. The prototype shown in Spain was the left-hand drive model.
The concept, which is equipped with the GT-R Coupe’s twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 engine and advanced four-wheel drive system, features a widened body painted in a matte black finish, numerous aerodynamic add-ons and large GT-R-style black alloy wheels wrapped in low profile tires.
The street legal prototype is being developed by Nissan and built by motorsports outfit RML with input from Nissan Technology Centre for Europe (NTC-E). According to the Japanese automaker, testing is scheduled to begin in November.
