It may not be the same as the GT-R powered Juke-R that Nissan has been talking about a lot recently, but Nissan is bringing the Juke Nismo Concept to Tokyo this week. Nissan claims that the Juke Nismo Concept is “an idea of how a premium sports version of the hugely successful compact crossover could look.”

The Juke Nismo Concept is lower and wider than the standard Juke. It gets a body kit from Nismo that includes revised lower bumpers front and rear, wider fenders and sill side skirts. The concept is painted in pearl white with red highlights.

The suspension of the Juke Nismo Concept has been lowered and stiffened with Nismo parts, while the 1.6L turbo four-cylinder has been upgraded to put out more power.

“As the Concept shows, Nismo brings new levels of individuality to mainstream Nissan cars like Juke. The future for Nismo is to develop premium sports designs for an ever-widening range of customers,” said Nismo President, Shoichi Miyatani.
