Nissan’s boffins seem to have let their hair down and fitted a Nissan Juke Nismo RS with tank tracks to create the Juke Nismo RSnow.

NISSAN HAS teased its latest one-off create, the Juke RSnow in a series of photos and videos. And while information is thin on the ground, it’s believed the tank track toting Juke will be a support vehicle for an upcoming ice drifting event in Lapland.

The little we do know is that instead of wheels the thing gets, er, tracks, or, to be more specific a Dominator Track System from American Track Truck. Some bodywork tweaking has taken place and the torque vectoring system allegedly had to be reprogrammed to accommodate the tracks.

There’s the Juke Nismo RS 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine under the bonnet which makes 160kW and 280Nm of torque which helps the Nismo RSnow travel at speeds up to 100km/h on snow.
