Despite the fact that the eccentric Nissan Juke (you can read the test here ) is in my eyes one of the most attractive crossovers on the market, I also perceive some of its shortcomings or not-so-successful parts of the body. However, all this disappears as if by magic when I look at the photos of this beauty in the Nismo edition , which will have its world premiere this week at the International Motor Show in Paris . And I'll start with the best.
The Juka will be powered by a turbocharged 16-liter with direct fuel injection with a very nice 160 kW (218 hp). This power should be transmitted through a six-speed gearbox to the wheels of the front axle. All-wheel drive is available as an option.
The biggest change in the appearance of the already striking car is the revised radiator grille and, above all, the completely new front bumper with an integrated strip of LEDs, which has finally gotten rid of the three unsightly round holes in its lower part. We also see changes for the better in the case of the side sills and the rear diffuser with chrome exhaust tip. There are also proper 19-inch alloy wheels and a rear wing located on the upper part of the trunk lid.
The Juke , which should also offer its driver a huge portion of fun behind the wheel, is equipped inside with new sports seats, a sports shift knob and a leather steering wheel with red stitching. In short and well. The Nissan Juke Nismo looks fantastic and I'm really looking forward to its official launch.
