Nissan today announced U.S. pricing for the 2017 Nissan JUKE sport cross, which is on sale now at Nissan dealers nationwide. The Nissan JUKE is offered in five grade levels, each available in front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive – S, SV and SL and two special NISMO editions, the JUKE NISMO and JUKE NISMO RS.
Enhancements for 2017 include new 17-inch machine-finished aluminum-alloy wheels, which are standard on SV and SL grades, and the contents of the previous Cold Weather Package – heated cloth front seats and heated outside mirrors – are now standard on the SV grade.

One transmission is offered for S, SV and SL – Nissan's advanced Xtronic transmission with Sport Mode and D-step Logic Control, which simulates shifts, giving a more natural acceleration feeling without holding a high rpm constant. The JUKE NISMO FWD model is offered with a 6-speed manual transmission.
The JUKE NISMO RS includes unique engine, suspension, steering and brake tuning (versus the JUKE NISMO and standard JUKE grades). The JUKE NISMO RS increases the engine's performance to 215 horsepower (at 6,000 rpm) and 210 lb-ft of torque (from 3,600 to 4,800 rpm) for the 6-speed manual transmission-equipped front-wheel drive model. The JUKE NISMO RS AWD with Xtronic transmission is rated at 211 horsepower (at 6,000 rpm) and 184 lb-ft of torque (from 2,400 to 6,000 rpm).
Both the JUKE NISMO and NISMO RS include special exterior modifications designed to enhance aerodynamics, including NISMO front and rear fascias and side sills with a distinctive red stripe, special grille and light treatments, extended body-colored wheel flares, red outside mirror covers and unique rear spoiler and NISMO or NISMO RS badging.
All grade levels include standard Nissan Intelligent Key® with Push Button Start, RearView Monitor and NissanConnectSM with Mobile Apps – including a 5.0-inch color display, USB connection port for iPod® interface and other compatible devices, Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System, Streaming audio via Bluetooth®, Siri™ Eyes Free and Hands-free Text Messaging Assistant2.
Other available features include Automatic Climate Control, premium cloth seats, leather-wrapped steering wheel, power moonroof, privacy glass, and SiriusXM® Satellite Radio (SiriusXM® subscription required, sold separately), Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection3 and NissanConnect with Navigation and Mobile Apps, with 5.8-inch color touch-screen display, enhanced Voice Recognition for navigation and audio, SiriusXM® Traffic and SiriusXM® Travel Link™ (SiriusXM® subscription required, sold separately).
A unique aspect of the Nissan JUKE is the ability to personalize both the exterior and interior with a range of "color packs" to change the look and feel of the vehicle through the JUKE Color Studio (not available with JUKE NISMO models). For example, accessory 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels are available with color inserts to match or contrast the body color. Special color accents can also be applied to the outside rearview mirror caps, side sills, rear roof spoiler and door handles. Interior color packs are offered for the door trim and other elements. Eight colors are available – Red, Yellow, Orange, White, Matte Black, Electric Blue, Black Purple and Carbon-Fiber Look – and a total of 12 accessories. The "affordable personalization" Color Studio offers easy online configuration and the ability to install the custom color parts and accessories at home or through individual dealers' parts and service facilities.

Nissan at the Los Angeles Motor Show, the All-New Murano and Juke stars.

  • All-new 2015 Nissan Murano set to arrive December 5th at Nissan dealers nationwide, with a starting M.S.R.P.* of $29,560
  • New 2015 Nissan JUKE, with revised styling and enhanced standard content, shown for first time in North America, goes on sale today
  • New JUKE "Color Studio" personalization program announced – offers unique way to customize Nissan's popular sport cross with a choice of 12 accessories in a range of 8 colors
  • Press conference also highlights Nissan's ongoing support of the Heisman Trophy Trust's charitable efforts
Nissan brought a splash of brass and color to the Los Angeles Auto Show today during a press conference featuring the debut of two new vehicles, the launch of a unique vehicle personalization program and an appearance by local Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Allen.

Sharing center stage at the Nissan display were the all-new 2015 Nissan Murano crossover, making its official debut in full production trim, and the revised Nissan JUKE sport cross.


"While Murano has always stood out from ordinary crossovers with its refined yet daring and futuristic design, this new third-generation design kicks it up tremendously with concept car-like styling, a premium interior and advanced, purposeful technology," said Fred Diaz, senior vice president, Nissan Sales & Marketing and Operations U.S., Nissan North America, Inc. 

"Less than two years ago this vehicle was turning heads at auto shows as the Resonance Concept. 

In just a few weeks from now, buyers will be able to drive this stunning all-new Murano home."

The new 2015 Nissan JUKE sport cross features a revised exterior and enhanced standard equipment – with a starting M.S.R.P.* announced today of $20,250. While keeping its same dimensions and aggressive stance as previous years, the 2015 JUKE offers a fresh front end look with its new projector beam headlights and LED front Signature Accent Lamps, while the redesigned rear fascia features a more aggressive shape to match the revised boomerang taillights with LED accents.

New standard JUKE features include Nissan Intelligent Key® with Push Button Start, RearView Monitor and NissanConnectSM with Mobile Apps, Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System, Streaming audio via Bluetooth®, and Hands-free Text Messaging Assistant. 

Three new exterior colors are offered for 2015 – Super Black and hard-to-ignore Solar Yellow and Cosmic Blue.
"JUKE owners have always enjoyed standing out from the crowd and getting noticed," said Diaz. "And now we're adding an entirely new dimension of personalization with the unique JUKE ‘Color Studio' program. Color changes everything."

The JUKE "Color Studio" gives JUKE buyers and owners the ability to personalize both the exterior and interior with a range of "color packs" to change the look and feel of the vehicle. For example, new accessory 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels are available with color inserts to match or contrast the body color. 

Special color accents can also be applied to the outside rearview mirror caps, side sills, rear roof spoiler and door handles. Interior color packs will be offered for the door trim and other elements. Eight colors are available – including red, white, black, yellow, electric blue and purple – and a total of 12 accessories.

There was one last piece of priceless hardware on display during today's event, the Heisman Memorial Trophy, which annually recognizes the outstanding college football player whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity.

Marcus Allen, the 1981 Heisman Trophy winner from the University of Southern California, joined Diaz on stage to acknowledge Nissan's ongoing support of the Heisman Trust's year-round community support and charitable efforts. Nissan also features past Heisman Trophy winners in its popular "Heisman House" and "Heisman House Tour" marketing campaigns. The 2014 Heisman Trophy will be presented December 13th in New York City.

"Nissan is proud to partner with the Heisman Trust in their longstanding charity efforts and looks forward to continuing our association for many years to come," added Diaz.
