Once inside, you’ll find a driving environment that has been developed with you in mind. A contemporary floating instrument panel complete with eight-inch colour touchscreen provides you with complete control over the vehicle’s functions. Combined with the Advanced Drive-Assist Display screen, managing your communications, entertainment, and key vehicle information couldn’t be simpler. Meanwhile, the monoform sports seats are as comfortable as can be, and can even be tailored to feature ingenious Bose Personal Plus headrests for 360-degree audio entertainment.

NissanConnect technology is far and away the star of the show in the new Nissan Juke. This innovative system enables you to connect to your smartphone via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, letting you access selected apps and audio streaming via the colour touchscreen in the vehicle. The NissanConnect app, meanwhile, offers another level of driver/vehicle interaction, providing details on driving history and fuel consumption, remote vehicle locking, and even helping you locate the model should you forget where you parked.

Safety

Staying protected out on the road is key for you, your passengers, and other road users. Thankfully, the Nissan Juke has been designed to offer plenty of peace of mind as standard. ProPILOT technology offers innovative support that helps you maintain a preset distance from the vehicle ahead, controlling your braking if required.
