shazia
Juke behaved as it should. It 'was fast, fun and - despite the alarming level of trouble - very easy to understand.
Juke is again on the other Suzuki SX4 Crossover that the U.S. is not really like any other small car. Nissan hopes that appeals to kids who might otherwise buy a Mazda3, Scion tC, Mini Cooper, or "boys driving for three years, BMW 3 Series," said Larry Dominique, Nissan North America vice president in charge of product planning.
Exterior design
The first is revealed Qazana Car Show - was presented in 2009 Geneva Motor Show - Juke was created in Nissan Design Europe in London, and honed in the Nissan Design Center (NDC) in Japan. Qashqai, the NDE is created, sold in Europe, Asia and Australia, while the Nissan Juke is marketed in Europe, Japan and the United States.
"The result of this international collaboration is a car coming, where East meets West, significant contributions to NDE and NDC in the key to creating such a striking design," said Shiro Nakamura.
It is a very individual line have been transferred virtually unchanged from Qazana. Design courage reflects the importance of the segment B of the European market: Europe is planned for the lion's share of sales before other major markets like North America and Japan.
The design team took inspiration for the design of Nissan Juke a variety of unusual sources. They looked back on a number of vehicles synonymous with an active lifestyle and sports - and that list included rally cars and motorcycles. It is clear to see how these ideas influenced the design.
But there are clearly DNA family in the Nissan Design - boomerang rear lights, for example from 370Z - but none of these elements are slavishly copied to Nissan, while preserving the DNA is the only juke as unique, almost Maverick, design.
This is a key theme running through Nissan designs. Albaisa Alfonso, vice president of Nissan Design Europe, said. "Juke Nissan elements of our range of cars such as 370Z and Cube himself, but our intention is not to make a clear link between the cars, but natural Cube is a cool car, for example, and this freshness can be found in Nissan Juke ".
When the generous ground clearance, large wheels and tires, a high waistline and broad shoulder line, the bottom "half" is the car seems to be a pure SUV. This impression is accentuated typical SUV characteristics such as contrast black scuff and paint, while front and rear fender, lower body from under the car, which looks like the platform security.
The front part of the marshes of custody "of the air intake assembly, but instead use a simple grid fine mesh, the design team developed a series of casting in circular grooves ... This suggests biotic elements.
Before life, however, the Juke Nissan presents its sporting credentials. Steeply raked windshield, the perfect crossover Nissan signature upswept rear side window flick - and offer INCLINED ROOF online profile to remind the canopy air.
The rear of the roof includes a fixed rear spoiler reduces aerodynamic lift to aid stability at high speeds. Neat duck-tail crest was completed with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel tests.
The lights also reflect the athletic agility of the car. On the face of these are divided into two different elements. Supervision of the upper half of the cover, contain thin rods daytime running lights and turn signals, while the main beam and low mounted lower on the nose of the car was inspired by the extra lights mounted on the rally cars in the sixties and seventies. At the rear, set fire back their own spin on the boomerang-shaped lights found on the 370Z.
A total of nine color palette of exterior colors are planned, two of whom are white, solid, and the Pearl, and three shades of one Nissan Juke - Come on Red, Blue and Brown Haptic the car, although the availability absolutely depends on the region.
Seiji Watanabe, deputy chief designer of the product. "We want our cars, our crosses, in particular, have a spirit of agility to qualify as light, agile, responsive Nissan Juke displays all these qualities and offers a real sense of optimism."
Interior Design
Nissan Juke active, sporty exterior is matched by its interior ... where the dominant feature also displays a feeling of pleasure: the center console, finished in gloss paint, similar to a motorcycle fuel tank.
"It's unexpected," said Alfonso Albaisa. "And that gives the cabin a certain appeal."
Reflective exterior is a blend of SUV and sports car attributes, interior design has a dominant position in driving, but all the attributes provided sports car. Shifter is sitting on top "motorbiketank" to ensure a slick change when the tank itself is not just a style statement, but also a challenging driver's knee airbag during Spirits in the curves.
Similarly, the central axis - which incorporates the new Nissan Dynamic Control - is ergonomically designed to ensure that the driver has immediate access to information and control in training mode.
Despite all its compact size, roomy interior offers the skill levels of interior space, back room and head before the knee will be enough for most occupants. Unlike Qazana auto show, Nissan Juke is a five-seater.
The practical luggage compartment is big enough to take a golf bag or suitcase nine-inch maximum size, and it also includes a storage area by the ground (4WD versions excluded), taking its potential capacity to 251 liters ( VDA). In addition, 60/40 split rear, but also fold in one motion to provide a completely flat bed.
To hide the luggage from prying eyes, the trunk has a barrel full coverage that differs from the classic that is attached to the back door and the door is increased when the safe is open.
"The interior presents a series of attributes that really sums up the whole car. There is much excitement here, a real sense of fun and a real quality," said Albaisa.
Platform
Nissan Juke is based on the Renault-Nissan B platform and has a wheelbase of 2530mm, 4135mm high is long, 1765mm wide and 1570mm. To allow the top of the range using 17-inch wheels and 215/55 R17 tires front and rear track is 1525mm, the largest yet seen on the Alliance B platform.
Develop new models of platform to make some changes, and Nissan Juke foundations are no exception. The application of the Juke Nissan, has been extended, expanded and strengthened significantly, and faded to improve safety, refinement and fuel efficiency.
Although the mirrors of the basic suspension system found in other B-segment cars, with MacPherson struts in front and a torsion beam rear, new front subframe type support improved lateral stiffness of the assembly. With the geometry of the revised front suspension, which helped to promote better handling and ride comfort and further refinement.
In an urban environment, the combination of ground clearance and large tires, speed bumps and poor road surface will not cause discomfort as - or badly - as they would for a traditional sport sedan.
Despite its SUV and a relatively high eye-point, the front and rear roll center height Nissan Juke is as low as possible - as close to the conventional hatchback of a typical SUV - to reduce body roll when cornering.
Agile has also helped speed-sensitive electric power steering, standard on all models, and increase strength and rigidity of the upper body. Nissan juke ring structure includes a new concept, which connects the upper body and the rear suspension, which increases the torsional rigidity.
Engines and transmissions
Europe has three choices of engine and manual gearbox or CVT, while sales Juke Nissan will begin in the second half of 2010. At the top of the area is a newly developed 1.6-liter turbocharged direct injection gasoline engine that develops 140kW (190PS) and 240 Nm
Low friction, lightweight, 16-valve engine uses direct injection to improve combustion to optimize power and torque, fuel consumption and emissions. In addition, a turbocharger and intercooler to help improve their strength - this is one of the most powerful engines in its class - but changing the timing cycle control intake and exhaust (Twin VTC) to enhance low-end engine response . Degree of overlap allows the recirculation of exhaust gases.
Low friction techniques include the adoption of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating on the valve lifters and camshafts polished. The result is an engine delivers a performance which, for a normally aspirated 2.5-liter engine, but with fuel economy a smaller engine.
The direct fuel injection engine in two versions of the Nissan Juke wheel unit will be coupled to a six-speed manual transmission. In the version with four-wheel drive, which will be mated to the CVT Nissan Xtronic transmission with manual six-speed.
New pistons with a revised crowns and integrated oil jet cooling was adopted with techniques such as low friction diamond-like carbon coating on the valve lifters.
But the biggest change was the development of a dual injection system - a world first - with two injectors per cylinder, each with tiny nozzles finer, more specific spraying fuel into the cylinders of an aerosol more efficient and complete combustion .
In addition to the modifications led to significant improvements in power, torque and fuel economy. The engine produces 86kW (117PS), representing an improvement of six percent compared to previous versions of the engine. Torque is improved by three percent to 157Nm, while its economy figures show an improvement of 5.6 percent. Powers normally aspirated gasoline engine two-wheel drive versions, and will be available with five-speed manual or optional CVT transmission Updated Xtronic, a CVT gearbox second to that used with the engine DIG.
The final choice of engine is familiar with the Alliance has developed 1.5-liter turbo K9K dCi common-rail diesel. 1461 cc eight-valve engine delivers good fuel economy, low emissions and operating costs with excellent maneuverability.
Diesel is available in two wheel drive models with six-speed manual gearbox. Europe, all engines are fully Euro 5.
Although the manual transmission was made during the Qashqai largely unchanged, the two systems Xtronic CVT according to a number of key technologies that promise significant improvements in weight, packaging, performance and fuel efficiency.
CVT XTRONIC a 6-speed manual turbo diesel Nissan Juke is more tuned to the sports performance of the revised manual mode for sharper acceleration in the same management system has been programmed to improve fuel efficiency. Both CVTS is an adaptive control system can be selected by Nissan Dynamic Control.
Unusual in its class, the Nissan Juke will be available with the optional four-wheel drive and more conventional front-wheel drive. A newly developed drive system is based on four-wheel-Nissan ALL MODE 4x4-in electronic technology, but now adds a lateral torque vectoring capacity of its arsenal.
Apart from front to rear torque split - up to a maximum at 50:50, it can now be divided on one side through the rear axle too. By monitoring vehicle speed, wheel speed, gear, steering angle, lateral G forces and now the rate of yaw of the vehicle, the torque distribution is extended to the outside rear wheel in turn to cut corners and improve the ability of the car when cornering. In total, 50% of the total available torque is sent either to the rear wheel.
The new rear axle includes electrical connectors at both ends and a new outfit the inclusion of this innovation is the first small car segment - technology that has until now only in top-of-the-range, premium vehicles.
The new system is much lighter and more compact than similar systems used by some other manufacturers.
Equipment lines and model
Almost the only traditional aspect of the Juke is a model of the Nissan line-up, which established the Nissan Visia, Acenta and Tekna lines. The lists of standard and optional equipment will be published closer to the date of sale, but the elements provided, such as automatic climate control, leather interior, Reversing camera, and all the available Intelligent Key, Nissan Juke customers as well as some unusual features .
One of these is the dynamic control of Nissan, the Central Command, and the display module, which allows the driver to change the settings for the Dynamic Drive and make changes more obvious functions, such as air conditioning.
Cleverly, the module takes different views, colors and characteristics, depending on how it is spent. Climate mode, the screen displays the interior temperature while the "buttons" show airflow preferences.
Because the sensitivity of parameters such as automatic headlights, can also be set through the system, while the screen changes color to indicate this type of information displayed. Conduct includes panels of information to the average speed, fuel, travel time and so on. In general, the display is designed to add a cooling sensation, the technology involved in it.
Accessories
Even though the Juke Nissan has a long list of standard equipment, Nissan has developed a wide range of accessories that allow owners to customize their cars even more. Among the items are available in different designs and alloy wheels, front and rear guards for the body to emphasize the part of SUV design.
Other exterior features include exhaust finishers, a roof spoiler and air deflectors on doors, while inside an owner can add the illuminated door sills and interior accent lighting. Key practices are advanced security systems, as well as opportunities for additional storage in the front armrest and the baggage claim area.
"The incredible success of our compact crossover Qashqai - we just spent half a million sales in Europe alone - has shown that customers are tired of conventional cars Nissan Juke is even more daring, more adventurous than the Qashqai, and is fixed to be confirmed. Nissan's position as a pioneer of crossover in Europe and the world, "says Simon Thomas.
Nissan Juke has been designed with the specific purpose of meeting the unmet expectations of customers by adding a dynamic masculinity and sobriety, the small car market safe. Who will buy Nissan Juke imagine in Europe?
Juke Nissan sales are mainly from the B segment, and also expects to attract customers to the C segment, in which people trade up to enjoy one of the most radical and exciting. How successful Nissan Qashqai, the vast majority of customers are new to the Juke Nissan Nissan brand.
