Nissan JUKE

Nissan and Adobe have just launched Stage JUK3D which is an online module that gives you access to discover and drive the Nissan JUKE, the sporty crossover, online.

When you launch Stage JUK3D you can discover the Nissan JUKE from any angle, both inside and outside of the car plus you can move around the vehicle, open up the doors and get inside to see every detail of the JUKE. Then personalise your car by choosing the paint colour.

Once you have customised your car you can then take it for a thrilling 3D spin around the edge of a city at night, completing a circuit with match lap times, which you can compare with your friends via social networks.

You will need Adobe Flash Player 11 installation to run Stage JUK3D and you can download this @

Nissan Juke

The Nissan Juke crossover has had revised gear ratio improvements for its best-selling models and will now offer improved fuel consumption and lower CO2 emissions. The Nissan Juke is another success story for Nissan with over 22,000 Jukes sold in the UK since it was launched back in September 2010 and follows on from the success of the Nissan Qashqai.

Both the 1.6-litre petrol and 1.5 dCi diesel drivetrains, with manual transmission, have undergone the optimisation programme with revised gear ratios offering cleaner and more fuel-efficient cars at no extra cost.

The 1.6-litre petrol now returns 47.1mpg on the combined fuel cycle (an improvement of 2.3mpg) and emits just 139g/km of CO2 (a reduction of 8g/km). The 1.5 dCi diesel returns 57.6mpg (up from 55.4mpg) and emits 129g/km of CO2 (a drop from 134g/km). Nissan Juke car leasing is on the site for all models with some great prices on two years contracts as well.

Nissan is bringing out a special edition of their funky Nissan Juke called the “Kuro” with ony 700 models destined for the UK. The car is based on the top-of-the-range Tekna grade and features new ten-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels, finished in gloss black along with black mirror and handles.

The new Nissan Juke “Kuro” (which means black in Japanese) is available in a choice of two metallic finishes, Pearl Black or Force Red and a special numbered plaque fitted to the centre console to designate its exclusivity. The full range of Nissan Juke engines will be available starting with the entry level 1.6-litre petrol, right up to the flagship 190hp turbocharged DIG-T. The Nissan Juke “Kuro” will go on sale on the 1st October. Nissan Juke business car leasing is on the site now and we hope to get the new special edition “Kuro” loaded shortly.

The Nissan Juke has just been voted Continental Irish Car of the Year 2011 by the Irish Motoring Writers association. The award was based on awarding points on a wide range of criteria ranging from innovation and safety, to space, comfort, build quality, driving quality and value for money.

Awards ceremony

Paddy Murphy, from awards sponsor, Continental Tyres, said,”The Irish motoring writers have selected an exciting model and no doubt the 2011 Irish Car of the Year accolade will provide a huge boost to the popularity of the Nissan Juke in the Irish market, particularly in the context of the current economic environment.

Bonita Norris

Nissan has selected Everest adventurer Bonita Norris to launch the new Nissan Juke crossover. Bonita is the youngest ever woman to climb Everest and was selected for her sense of achievement and natural sense of adventure.

Bonita said,”I’m delighted to back the launch of Nissan Juke because I believe in backing British, and anything that creates jobs and pride for this country has my support. Juke defies the stereotypes and breaks the mould, I can relate to that”.

The Nissan Juke is officially launched on the 24th September and Nissan has reported that over 2,000 UK orders have been taken already (15,000 across Europe), so if you fancy the new Juke, Nissan business contract hire prices are on the site now.

The last Nissan Micra

The last Nissan Micra has rolled off the production line at the Nissan Sunderland plant. In total, since 1992, there have been 2,368,704 Micras produced at Sunderland and this marks the end of a very successful car for Nissan.

However in its place, Nissan will now start production of their all-new Juke crossover car which will start being built in mid-August. Kevin Fitzpatrick, VP Manufacturing UK said, “I think everyone will be sorry to see the last Micra come off the line. When you produce a model for as long as we have produced the Micra, it almost becomes part of your plant’s identity. Micra’s departure frees up capacity on our lines meaning we can now look forward to producing the Juke in August”. Nissan contract hire prices on the Juke are available now.

Nissan Juke SUV

The new Nissan Juke looks set to shake up the small car sector, offering a compact SUV crossover alternative. The price and specification of this new model range has now been launched by Nissan and offers two and four-wheel drive options, in a choice of three engine options. The Juke will now join the existing Nissan crossover range of Murano, Qashqai and Qashqai+2 with the entry level model available from only £12,795, which is likely to provide a competitive contract hire rental.

Interior of the Juke

The three engine options start with a frugal 1.6-litre 117PS petrol engine or a 110PS 1.5-litre dCi diesel, with the top of the range Juke featuring a new 190PS 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol option. Three specification levels will be available, namely Visia, Acenta and Tekna, with the entry level Visia offering 16-inch alloy wheels, ESP, six airbags and air conditioning as standard.

The Acenta model adds 17-inch alloy wheels, climate control, Bluetooth with USB connectivity and the Nissan Dynamic Control System (central command module). Two option packs can be added to the Acenta, either a Sport Pack or Premium Pack. 

The ultimate Juke will wear the Tekna badge and the vehicle specification includes leather upholstery, Nissan Connect, a reversing camera, Intelligent Key with engine start button and much more. The Juke should be available to order on Nissan contract hire in June, with the first deliveries likely in September for the new registration plate.
