Nissan Juke continues its “look at me” approach

ONE THING YOU CAN SAY ABOUT Nissan’s Juke is that it’s never been a shrinking violet. Bold colours, loud accessories and extrovert styling have always been its stock in trade.

Things are about to go up to a new level as the new Juke is set to deliver all-new levels of personalisation, courtesy of a vibrant new trim level, the ST-L+, and an equally colourful new trim option, the Ti Energy Orange.

As additions to the existing Juke line-up, the new options will give Nissan owners even more choice when it comes to personalising their vehicles, with new interior treatments designed to further boost the visual appeal of the cabin.

The styling is certainly distinctive

The Juke arrived in Australia in May 2020 in a four-model line-up – the ST, ST+, ST-L and Ti – with the new ST-L+ trim level expanding the Juke family to five distinct choices, along with a new Energy Orange interior trim option on the Ti model.

“The Juke is a small SUV that’s big on personality, and the same can be said for Juke customers,” says Nissan Australia Managing Director, Stephen Lester.

“And the Juke ST-L+ and Ti Energy Orange will allow even more of that personality to shine through, with two unique interior options that add even more excitement to the cabin experience.”

Nissan JUKE ST-L+ 

It begins with the Juke ST-L+, which is based on the ST-L model, and includes that same expansive equipment list, including 19-inch alloy wheels, ambient interior lighting, a 7.0-inch Advanced Drive Assist Display (ADAD), and 8.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto capability.

The ST-L+ builds on that equipment with the inclusion of the Nissan-first Bose Personal Audio system, with eight powerful speakers – including a pair of Bose UltraNearfield speakers integrated into both front-seat headrests – so listeners can enjoy immersive music in ultra-clear definition.

The ST-L+ also includes part-leather-accented seat trim finished in white, complemented by the white leather-accented dashboard, knee pad, door trim and front armrest.

For an even more striking contrast, the driver and front passenger headrest finisher, centre console and front door trim are finished in black chrome.

Bright and bold, but won’t be to everyone’s taste

Nissan JUKE Ti Energy Orange.  

The Ti Energy Orange gives extrovert customers an entirely new interior option when choosing a range-topping Juke model.

Designed to sit alongside the existing Ti model, the equipment lists are near-identical, including the 19-inch Akari alloy wheels, follow-me-home headlights, illuminated ‘Juke’ entry kick plates and the eight-speaker Bose Personal Plus audio.

While the TI model sports Alcantara-trimmed seats, as well as Alcantara dashboard, knee pad & door panels, the TI Energy Orange replaces those items with orange/black leather-accented seats, and orange leather-accented dashboard, knee pad, door trim and front armrest to create a unique and eye-catching interior treatment.
