  • Production Nissan Juke-R sketches

    The first sketches of the upcoming production version of the Nissan Juke-R have been revealed, depicting--as expected--a crossover with a decidedly sporty and agressive look. Just as insane as the prototype Juke-R, based on the Nissan GT-R's powertrain and intended for exhibition racing duty, the production Juke-R will only be built on a pre-order basis and is likely to cost more than half a million dollars. It will be one of the most exclusive vehicles around, and it's likely to be one the few production supercrossovers ever built. At 545 horsepower from a twin-turbo, 3.8-liter V-6 engine...

Now, Audi has released several teaser sketches of the production version, this time of both the Sedan and Hatchback variants. The sketches reveal typical Audi design language of sporty elegance, integrating the now familiar single-frame grille with its tapered upper corners and headlights. With the interior sketch, we can clearly see a new MMI controller and sporty flat-bottomed...
