They had the dimensions of the series Juke , with the same length (4,135 mm), height (1,575 mm) and wheelbase (2,530 mm), although the width increased from 1,765 to 1,910 mm to incorporate the extension of the steps of wheel , necessary to cover the 20-inch forged aluminum RAYS wheels that it equipped.

They were powered by a 485 hp 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine capable of reaching 257 km/h and accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, making it the fastest crossover in the world .

Later it evolved into the Nissan Juke R 2.0 , a powered version powered by a V6 3.5 biturbo engine from the Nissan GT-R Nismo that offered 545 hp and had a robotic double clutch and intelligent all-wheel drive.
