"Juke is Nissan's bold, confident family member. The number one purchase reason is its design – customers love its style and assertive personality. We've loved working with our colleagues at Nissan Technical Centre Europe and the team at the Sunderland factory to develop a new yellow for Juke which will make an even bolder statement - we think it will give the Juke an extra 'bang'. It brings a fresh flavour to the line-up – every member of the design team is looking forward to seeing the first one on the road," said Matthew Weaver, Vice President, Nissan Design Europe.
Improved interior convenience
Starting from N-Connecta grade, all versions are now equipped with a wireless charging pad which can accommodate a smartphone as large as an iPhone 12 Pro Max. In addition, there are both USB-A and USB-C sockets for use by front occupants.
And tech-savvy kids (or adults) in the rear will appreciate the addition of both USB-A and USB-C charging points to ensure their gadgets are fully powered throughout their journey.
Other updates to the interior of all Juke grades includes an enlarged 6.6-litre glovebox for RHD versions (29% larger than previously). The armrest has been redesigned to be more supportive, with an asymmetric design that increases the reach by 25mm without compromising the cupholders. The armrest lifts to give access to a centre storage cubby, as per the previous Juke, but the lid now features a clip which can hold three credit cards.
All grades of Juke are now equipped with an electric handbrake, ensuring maximum space and convenience in the space between the front seats. On the Hybrid version, the e-Pedal and EV Mode buttons have been relocated for greater convenience.
New exterior colour options
Other changes to the exterior palette options include a new Pearl White, with more metallic flakes for a greater pearlescent effect.
Equally, the new Pearl Black is a revised formula. The new paint is richer and darker. This is achieved by using more carbon black pigment and replacing the metallic flake with a glass flake, which has the effect of generating a higher degree of "sparkle".
New wheel trim options are now available on Juke across the top three grades in the range. The standard wheel on N-Connecta and Tekna+ are all new and each has a five-spoke design, but the designs are unique to each grade, with a different technical, angular appearance.
There is a new low-resistance rolling tyre option for the 17" wheel option which is available on the Hybrid version at Acenta Premium and N-Connecta grades.
Additional driver assistance technology
With the update of Juke comes the standard fitment of Intelligent Driver Alertness. Lane Keep Assist is an option, and standard on the Tekna grade upwards. It monitors the Juke's position in the lane on a highway, for example, and if the car moves too close to the limit of the lane, as defined by the white lines, it will trigger a vibration in the steering wheel to attract the driver's attention. Without correction, the car will intervene and correct the direction to maintain the car's trajectory in the lane.
