The new Nissan Juke EV will be assembled at the Nissan Motor plant in Sunderland, UK. The new model is technically close to the Nissan Leaf, which in its third generation has transformed from a hatchback into a crossover. Its length is 4350 mm, which is very similar to the size of the Juke. This raises the question: how will this duo differ from the buyer's perspective?
Nissan CPO Guillaume Cartier told Autocar that the electric Juke will differ significantly in design from other brand models. He added that for some it will be a "wow car," while others will say they would never choose a model with such styling.
The Juke EV is built on the same CMF-BEV platform as the Leaf. Thus, you can expect the same batteries and engines. Likely, the maximum range will exceed 560 km, and the engine power will reach 214 hp.
Earlier, Nissan representatives stated that the price of the new Juke EV will be approximately the same as the petrol version of the current model. In the UK, this is around 21,000 pounds sterling (23,792 euros).
As for the regular Nissan Juke with an internal combustion engine, it will continue to be produced in parallel with the new electric model.
