EXPANDED NISSAN NISMO RANGE TURNS UP THE HEAT

With the very first models now in the hands of owners across Europe, the Juke NISMO RS highlights Nissan’s innovative approach to performance motoring. With more performance, a sharper chassis set-up, more powerful brakes and extra equipment than the standard Juke NISMO, the new RS is the most extreme and focused version of Nissan’s multi-award-winning compact crossover ever built.

Developed with NISMO’s extensive global motorsport experience, the NISMO RS features a 1.6-litre DIG-T engine that develops 218PS (160kW), while torque in two-wheel drive/manual transmission versions is 280Nm. 2WD models benefit from the addition of a mechanical Limited Slip Differential (LSD) on the driven front wheels, while four-wheel drive models feature Nissan’s advanced Torque Vectoring System as standard, along with Nissan’s Xtronic transmission, 250Nm of torque and standard-fit steering wheel-mounted paddle shifts.
