The 2017 Nissan Juke NISMO RS is a peculiar little crossover that defies all logic by existing in the first place. But Nissan didn't stop at just one performance version - oh no, they gave us two! The NISMO RS takes things up a notch with 215 horsepower, a limited slip differential, and summer performance tires. This funky crossover features unique styling cues like lowered rocker panels, aggressive body kit, and red accents that scream performance. Inside, the NISMO RS boasts Recaro seats with racing harness holes, Alcantara trim, and NISMO badging to remind you that you're in something special.

But the quirks don't stop there - the climate control display doubles as a drive mode selector, a feature you won't find in your average run-of-the-mill crossover. The top-down camera may be the smallest in the world, but hey, it's there! And let's not forget about the hazard light button that takes center stage on the dashboard, a design choice that's as odd as the Juke itself. In the back, the rear seats may lack amenities, but the sporty feel with red contrast stitching adds a touch of excitement.

When it comes to driving the Juke NISMO RS, you can expect a high-performance experience that defies expectations. With its unique design elements, mechanical enhancements, and sporty interior touches, this crossover is not your average daily driver. Nissan may have moved on to the more conventional Kicks, but the Juke NISMO RS will always hold a special place in the hearts of those who appreciate its quirky charm and spirited performance.
