All-new Nissan Juke trades internal combustion for electric power
Third-generation Nissan Juke looks straight out of Cyberpunk
Remember when our spies spotted what could be the next-generation Nissan Juke? Well, our spies were right, as Nissan recently revealed the latest generation of its funky crossover, and it gets more than just a major makeover.
As part of Nissan’s plan to offer more electric vehicles (EVs) in Europe, the third-generation Nissan Juke is now a zero-emissions vehicle. That’s right, it has swapped internal combustion for electric propulsion. It joins the likes of the Micra, the third-generation Leaf, and Ariya as the brand’s premier EV offerings in Europe.
From its design, the all-new Juke features a muscular exterior complemented by geometric shapes. This gives the Juke a unique and dynamic appearance that makes standout from other crossover SUVs. It also has a more coupe-like profile, sharp edges, and a steeply sloping roofline, which gives the Juke a more clear-cut and hatchback-like design.
The geometric patterns, combined with the muscular wheel arches and the eye-catching LED taillights & headlights, also give the Juke a Cyberpunk-like look that complements the vehicle’s futuristic design. Last but not least are the black body cladding and unpainted bumper, which give the Juke a bit of rugged charm in contrast to the edgy vehicle design.
Other details about the all-new Nissan Juke have yet to be revealed. However, Nissan did say it will be made at Nissan’s Sunderland Plant in the UK. Its exact specifications also remain a mystery, but the all-new Juke will most likely be underpinned by the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi CMF EV architecture. Moreover, the all-electric Juke could be available with various battery packs: 40 kWh, 55 kWh, and 63 kWh for the top-of-the-line models.
As far as electric motors are concerned, entry-level and mid-range models could come with a single electric motor, while the top-of-the-line variants could come with dual electric motors. When it comes to range, the Juke could have a range between 400 km and 500 km.
With the all-new Nissan Juke already revealed, more details about Nissan’s latest EV could be revealed soon. For now, all we can do is admire the Juke’s new stylish look and hope the brand brings it back to Asia as an all-electric model.
