Nissan has announced that its innovative Juke-R crossover will be made available to buy in very limited numbers on a build-to-order basis.
The 3.8-liter, 160-mph Juke-R made its global debut in Dubai in January this year, attracting enormous attention. As a result, Nissan has now received firm orders for three cars to be built. Two have come from “a high-profile and well-respected member of Dubai society.”
Nissan will build more Juke-Rs upon request and will be taking orders in the coming four weeks, before production starts in earnest. Although no price has been announced, expect it not to be modest.
Respected race car builder, Ray Mallock Limited, undertook the design and engineering of the concept, with support from Nissan’s UK engineering center and design studio, and is expected to be involved in the limited edition production models.
While the original Juke-R was based on the MY10 GT-R running gear, the run of new cars will benefit from featuring the drivetrain and chassis of the MY12 GT-R and, with the build of the first cars underway, the first three cars will be delivered to their new owners in late summer.
Anyone wishing to register an interest in purchasing Nissan’s most innovative crossover yet should contact Juke-R@Nissan.co.uk.
To coincide with the announcement, Nissan is also launching a cinematic online movie today in which the Juke-R stars.
