NEW Nissan Juke: What's new?

At the front, the upper lamps have been redesigned to adopt the Nissan's signature 'boomerang' shape - as seen on 370Z, new Qashqai and new Murano - and now too incorporate bi-intensity LED daytime running lamps. The headlights are now available with Xenon bulbs for better visibility and new lens covers. The nose incorporates a new, more powerful V-shaped grille, while the lower elements have been toughened with new trim beneath the bumper.
 
Door mirrors have been revised to include LED side turn strip repeaters and, where fitted, cameras for the Around View Monitor.
 
At the rear, the bumper has a more aggressive shape to match new revised boomerang tail lamps with LED light guide technology, giving the new Juke a more distinctive appearance at night.
 
The new colour palette now extends to ten colours and includes three new shades: Sunlight Yellow metallic, Ink Blue metallic and solid Red.
 
A wide range of alloy wheels completes the exterior revisions, with 16-inch steels  available on entry-level Visia models and different styles of 17 or 18-inch alloys on Acenta, Acenta Premium and Tekna variants. A new 18-inch alloy wheel with coloured inserts will also be available, allowing drivers to add their personal touch.

A total of five engines are available for the new Juke, three remain as before -  the 1.6 94PS, the 1.6 117 CVT and the recently introduced and highly acclaimed dCi 110 - with the addition of two brand new petrol options.
 
The Alliance-developed DIG-T 115 petrol engine, which comes as an option to replace the outgoing 117PS 1.6-litre unit, is an advanced turbocharged direct injection engine delivering 115PS (85kW) and generating 190Nm of torque.
 
Despite its modest size, the DIG-T 115 turbocharged engine packs a real punch, offering sharper acceleration and greater torque (190Nm) for added flexibility than the outgoing 1.6-litre naturally aspirated unit.
 
Now with six gears, the Juke's new engine's lower weight, standard automatic Stop/Start feature and more fuel-efficient operation translates to cleaner and more economical performance. The DIG-T 115 engine emits 129g/km of CO2 and has a fuel consumption figure of 51.4mpg (combined cycle).

Personalisation becomes an integral part of new Juke ownership with the Nissan Design Studio personalisation packs available on the Acenta Premium and Tekna grades.  The customisation packages provide opportunity to add individual touches to the new model, with an array of colours and quirks to tailor the look of the interior and exterior.

Nissan's drive to make its cars as safe as possible takes another step forward with the introduction of its acclaimed Safety Shield system to the new Juke range. Fitted as standard to Tekna models, Nissan Safety Shield combines the vehicles Around View Monitor cameras with advanced electronics and software to provide a comprehensive suite of safety features.
Included in the Juke's Nissan Safety Shield are Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Warning and Moving Object Detection
