[新車速遞] New Nissan Juke 'Baby' Crossover
, 描述: Gets 190HP 1.6-liter Turbo Engine
Arousing or polarizing; duke orpuke (sorry, we just had to play with the name); refreshing orcontroversial; whatever the case, one thing is for sure: there's no waythe all-new Nissan Juke will go by unnoticed when it hits the road inEurope and North America this fall.
Roughly sized between a Fiestaand a Focus, the production version of the Qazana concept blends designelements from numerous cars including the Murano and Qashqai as well asfrom the 370Z and even the Cube with a busy face that looks like itevolved from the unforgettable Pontiac Aztec.
Despitethe playful color options inside, the Juke's interior is far lessprovocative from a design standpoint. The dashboard is dominated by acentre console design that is said to have been inspired by amotorcycle fuel tank, while several parts are finished in high glosscolors.
Beneaththe modernized sheetmetal lies an evolution of the Renault NissanAlliance 'B-Platform' that's used on the Clio and Micra superminis.
The Juke measures 4,135mm in length, 1,765mm in width, 1,570mm in height and has a wheelbase length of 2,530mm.
In European guise, the Juke will be available with three different engines, one diesel and two petrol units.
Sittingat the top of the range is a new 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline enginewith direct injection generating 190PS and 240 Nm or 177 lb-ft of peaktorque.
The secondpetrol engine is a newly developed version of Nissan's naturallyaspirated 1.6-liter gasoline unit that develops 117 horsepower, whilethe diesel range is limited to Renault's 1.5-liter dCi with 110HP and240Nm of torque.
Interms of transmissions, the two-wheel drive turbocharged 1.6-litrepetrol engine is available with a six speed manual, while a CVTtransmission with a six-speed manual mode will be available on therange-topping all-wheel drive version.
Thenaturally aspirated 1.6-litre petrol is available either with a 5-speedmanual or the updated XTRONIC CVT and the 1.5-litre diesel engine isavailable with a 6-speed manual.
Forthe time being, only the 1.6-liter Turbo with the CVT is offered withall-wheel drive, with the rest of the range keeping the basicfront-wheel drive layout.
Nissanclaims that the ALL-Mode 4x4-i electronic all-wheel drive system hasbeen enhanced with torque vectoring technology to further enhanceagility and reduce understeer when cornering.
Surprisingly,on front-wheel drive versions, the Juke gets MacPherson struts at thefront with a torsion beam at the back, while four-wheel drive modelsare equipped with a multi-link rear suspension modelled on the systemfound on Qashqai.
TheJuke will have its world premiere at next month's Geneva Motor Show.The European market models will be manufactured at Nissan's UK plant inSunderland. |
