Well that didn't take long.

A few days after it was reported that Nissan's->ke62 in-house tuning firm, NISMO, was preparing a more powerful version of the NISMO Juke, the fine folks over at Sport Auto released a video of the said crossover during a recent test run of the prototype model in Spain.

As was earlier reported, this prototype model, which could take the name of Juke NISMO RC, is set to produce an output of 221 horsepower, a significant uptick from the 197-horsepower output of the NISMO Juke. More importantly, it'll come with a host of other modifications, including a more aggressive body kit, a more in-tune suspension system, and a drivetrain option of either front-wheel drive with a six-speed manual transmission or all-wheel drive with a continuously variable transmission.

As far as the video goes, the prototypes - we saw at least three of them in there - were all being subjected to numerous testing activities, including handling, cornering, and straightaway speeds.

It'll be interesting to see how NISMO offers the final package for the Juke NISMO RC. But the early returns seem to suggest that it's going to make the Juke that much more of an attractive crossover. It still looks a little quirky, but if it runs the way it's been hyped, then we'll take the quirkiness as part of the overall package.

We’ll keep you updated.
