Finally, news we have all been waiting for. Nissan has confirmed pricing for the Nissan Juke Nismo and it is available from a very reasonable £19,995. Features a 200PS 1.6-litre turbo with uprated suspension and a Nismo bodykit, this interesting car should offer the best of both worlds in terms of pricing and performance.
Power comes from an uprated version of Nissan’s 1.6-litre direct injection turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine which produces 200PS at 6,000rpm and 250Nm of torque between 2,400rpm and 4,800rpm. In front-wheel drive, six-speed manual form, the Juke Nismo is capable of accelerating from 0-62mph in just 7.8 seconds and on to a top speed of 134mph.
The Juke Nismo has been designed to offer accessible performance – and complementing the new engine is an uprated chassis that will really help owners make the most of the power available. As well as 10 percent stiffer springs, the suspension settings have been changed to enhance traction while the steering is more direct.
Underlining the performance personality of the car, special suede-trimmed Nismo sports seats with red stitching and deep side bolsters have been added, along with Alcantara and leather trim for the steering wheel and suede trim for the door liners. Other changes include a black centre console, black door switch surrounds and a black headliner. Red Nismo signatures are also carried through to the dashboard gauges, gearknob and gaiter.
The Juke Nismo will be available in three colours: Storm White, Pearl Black and Blade Silver. As well as a two-wheel drive six-speed manual transmission, the Juke Nismo will also be available with four-wheel drive and a CVT automatic gearbox too.
