Nissan Juke 2012


For the year 2012, Nissan Juke will get more greenhouse friendly with significant improvement in the fuel economy. The improvement in the fuel economy is mainly due to the revised gear ratios for both the 1.6L petrol and the 1.5L dCi diesel drivetrains. The 1.6L petrol variant now returns 47.1mpg on the combined cycle whereas the 1.5L dCI diesel variant sees the economy improve from 55.4mpg to 57.6mpg on the combined cycle.

The 1.6-litre petrol variant now returns 47.1mpg on the combined cycle - an improvement of 2.3mpg - and emits just 139g/km of CO2, a reduction of 8g/km. As a result of these changes, the 1.6-litre petrol model now sits in VED Band E, meaning that owners will pay £15 less to tax their cars. With the fuel savings factored in, the optimisation changes will save the typical owner £232 over the course of three years*.

Customers opting for the revised 1.5-litre dCi diesel see fuel economy improve from 55.4mpg to 57.6mpg on the combined cycle, and emissions fall from 134g/km to just 129g/km. As with the petrol model, the revised diesel-powered Juke drops a VED band (from E to D), and now costs just £95 a year to tax. Over the course of three years, the savings add up to an estimated £171.92*.

The pricing on the cake for all Juke buyers is that these revisions come at no additional cost. On-the-road prices have been held, meaning that buyers really can make a saving by choosing the Juke.

Over 22,000 Nissan Jukes have been sold in the UK since it was launched on 24thSeptember 2010, replicating the success of the Nissan Qashqai by moving out of a niche and into the mainstream.
