Cerritos Nissan Welcomes the Arrival of the JUKE!

Aug. 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Cerritos Nissan is pleased to announce the arrival of the 2011 Nissan JUKE!

Nissan’s all-new bold urban sport cross. JUKE fuses the best qualities of a sports car, including a sporty driving position, dynamic handling, and responsive engine, with the best aspects of an SUV – such as a robust lower body, raised ground height, improved visibility, and confident stance. These qualities come together in a uniquely Nissan way with innovation, technology, and style. http://www.cerritosnissan.com

JUKE is powered by a standard 1.6-liter Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) Turbo engine, rated at 188 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque. The engine, Nissan’s first application in North America, offers the energetic performance of a larger displacement engine without sacrificing the fuel economy of a smaller motor. Two transmissions are offered – Nissan’s advanced Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) with S-Mode and a 6-speed manual transmission (SV FWD and SL FWD models only). Fuel economy is rated at 27 mpg City and 32 mpg Highway for JUKE CVT FWD models.

Unlike traditional entries in the fast-growing compact hatchback/crossover market today, the all-new JUKE offers bold styling along with unexpected levels of technology – like an advanced torque vectoring AWD system with performance technology usually reserved for premium vehicles. JUKE’s torque vectoring AWD system splits torque up to 50:50 between the front and rear wheels and can also split torque from side-to-side across the rear axle.  When cornering, the system helps reduce under-steer and enhance the vehicle’s cornering feel.

Another new innovation debuting on JUKE is the Integrated Control (I-CON) system.  It combines control of the automatic A/C and a three-mode drive selector – Normal for everyday driving, Sport for a more intense performance feel and Eco for maximum efficiency, adjusting throttle response, transmission (CVT) and steering feel for the precise ride the driver desires.
