Gulf Weekly Urban crossover that stands out from the crowd

Taking place at the Dubai Autodrome, under spotlights and to the tune of local DJs, Nissan unveiled its latest Urban Crossover, the 2015 Juke, at a regional launch event.

Its Japanese makers say the upgraded 2015 Juke targets the ‘urban creative’, those who are not afraid to be different and stand out from the crowd.

Nissan’s managing director Middle East, Samir Cherfan, said: “We felt that in line with the its brand image of ‘daring to be different’, Nissan had to welcome it to the region in style.

“The Juke delivers in every way – it’s an extremely comfortable high ride with fast, sporty response. Customers will discover that their crossover thrills them as much as a sports car. We made some revisions to it but not at the expense of the traits that have made the Juke such a success.”

The new model comes with a variety of options for consumers to select from. It’s powered by a choice of either a 1.6-litre natural-aspirated engine or a 1.6-litre turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine.

Three driving modes are available – normal, sport and eco – along with a new audio system, the Japanese automaker’s latest-generation NissanConnect connectivity technology.

Also available is leather upholstery, Bluetooth phone and audio streaming, USB port and intelligent keyless entry with push start button.

Nissan Juke prices will range from $17,970 (BD6,775) to $23,140 (BD8,725), although prices may vary by market. For further details, contact YK Almoayyed on 17732732.
