Take a deep breath. The official photos of the new Nissan Juke have been released

This is the new Nissan Joke... sorry, I mean Juke. Nothing spectucular regarding the mechanical parts, just extreme styling. No further comments, cause I'll become very nasty... ok, I will make just one comment. It's horrible, even the Fiat Multipla looks good compared to this!!!

• Based on the Renault Nissan Alliance B platform

• Inside, the centre console design is inspired by a motorcycle fuel tank... I don't want to know what was the inspiration for the exterior

• ALL-MODE 4x4-i is a new development of Nissan�s electronic all-wheel drive system and now features torque vectoring technology to enhance agility and reduce understeer when cornering

• In Europe, three different engines will be available: 
• One diesel, 1.5-litre dCi, producing 110 hp and 240 Nm of torque
• Two 1.6-litre petrol units. The first one develops 117 hp, while at the top of the range is a new turbo-charged petrol engine (MR16DDT) with direct injection. The engine is one of the most powerful in its class, developing 140kW (190PS) and 240 Nm

• In terms of transmissions, the two-wheel drive turbo-charged 1.6-litre petrol engine is available with a six speed manual, while a CVT transmission with a six-speed manual mode will be available on the range-topping all-wheel drive version of the turbo-charged petrol engine. The naturally aspirated 1.6-litre petrol is available either with a 5-speed manual or the updated XTRONIC CVT and the 1.5-litre diesel engine is available with a 6-speed manual
