The Nissan Juke.
STADDLESTONES Nissan will be unveiling the much anticipated Nissan Juke, at a special preview event next Friday, July 30, between 4pm and 9pm at its Ryde dealership.
For one night only, Nissan’s latest model will be on show, along with a product expert who will be on hand to explain the capabilities of this exciting new car.
Orders for the new Juke can be placed on the night, with official sales starting on September 24.
Extending Nissan’s successful line up of innovative crossovers, including the Qashqai and Murano, the Juke is a distinctive compact crossover, with prices starting at £12,795.
Part rugged sports utility vehicle (SUV), part funky sports car, the Juke is a ground-breaking model providing a stylish alternative to the conventional hatchback.
Chris Perkis, director at Staddlestones Nissan, said: "We’ve already seen tremendous response to the Juke, but this is the first time customers can see a full-size car first-hand, and we’re confident they will be impressed. The Juke brings something new to the car market and cements Nissan’s place as a bold and thoughtful car manufacturer."
Available in three engine sizes — 115bhp 1.6 petrol, 187bhp 1.6 petrol turbo and 109bhp 1.5 diesel — and nine colours, the Juke boasts a distinctive body, raised ride height and the option of four-wheel drive.
At the front, the engine guard forms part of the air intake assembly and the lights reflect the car’s sporting ability. It is split into two distinct elements, with running lights and indicators framing the upper half, while the main and dipped beams are mounted lower on the nose of the car.
Inside, the striking centre console is inspired by a motorcycle fuel tank finished in high gloss with large twin chrome-ringed dials marking out the dashboard, while the fascia also features colour displays for the ventilation system, from Acenta grade upwards.
With seating for five and a rear bench that splits and folds flat, plus a hatchback boot, the Juke is both roomy and practical. And for owners who like to put their own stamp on their car, a full range of accessories has been developed.
British designed and built, the Juke brings advancements in engine technology, cabin design and turbocharged efficiency, ensuring its place as one of the most influential newcomers of 2010.
