Nissan JUKE Hybrid 2023 Interior Exterior

Nissan JUKE Hybrid 2023.

Where traditional hybrids offer an uninspiring experience, the JUKE Hybrid's intelligent drive system has been tuned to maximise the amount of time JUKE spends in EV mode, which is what customers appreciate the most. A key objective for Nissan's engineers was to reduce the frequency of the engine switching on and off, which drivers find inconvenient and disturbing. This increases driving pleasure as well as optimising efficiency.

During final testing, up to 80 per cent of an urban drive was achieved in pure EV mode, with short hybrid phases to recharge the battery before returning to EV mode. The JUKE Hybrid not only starts 100% in electric mode, it can reach speeds up to 55kph in pure EV, for drivers to enjoy strong, constant, repeatable and sustained EV driving experience.

The system will automatically maximise EV usage, but JUKE Hybrid is also equipped with a dedicated EV mode switch that can be used as a feature for when the driver does not want the engine running, such as residential areas, around built up areas like schools, car parks, drive-through and in traffic jams. While battery state of charge permits, it will force the JUKE Hybrid to operate as an electric-only vehicle.

Key to the driving pleasure at the heart of the Nissan JUKE Hybrid is an advanced low friction multi modal gearbox that provides optimal use of the propulsive power, whether electric, petrol engine, or both.

To reduce friction, this gearbox uses dog clutches instead of conventional synchroniser rings to shift the 4 "ICE" gears and 2 "EV" gears. Additionally, to reduce friction, this gearbox does not use a clutch. All vehicle starts are 100% electric, and the 2 EV motors are used in combination to synchronise the gears, delivering smooth, connected and responsive acceleration.

The gearbox is controlled by an advanced algorithm, managing the shift points, battery regeneration, as well as the advanced series-parallel architecture. The powertrain can navigate seamlessly through different hybridisation requirements (series, parallel, series-parallel) according to acceleration and power requirements, all without any driver input. As a result, there is no "rubber-band" sensation, which is perceived negatively by customers of traditional hybrids, and the driver will enjoy responsive acceleration, quietness, refined cruising as well as efficient low emissions – the best of all worlds.

As with the LEAF pure EV, the JUKE Hybrid is equipped with Nissan's e-Pedal Step system which, when activated, allows the progress of the car to be controlled using the accelerator pedal. When the foot is lifted from the accelerator, moderate regenerative braking is applied (up to 0.15g) and will decelerate the JUKE to creep speed (~5kph). Additional foot braking may sometimes be necessary to decelerate, and is needed to achieve full stop (auto hold function can be selected for convenience). Using e-Pedal quickly becomes intuitive and the effect is to reduce the workload of the driver during their urban drive and, in doing so, it provides a smooth and relaxing driving experience, while maximising hybrid battery regeneration opportunities, further enhancing the EV experience.

Inside the cabin, the right-hand of the two dials shows speed and the left-hand dial shows a power gauge, with the needle moving between "charge", when energy regeneration is taking place, through "Eco" when propulsion is electric and "power" when the internal combustion engine and electric motor combine. Within the lower portion of the left-hand dial, there's a gauge showing the battery's state of charge.

A visual representation of the flow of power can be displayed on the 7" combimeter screen between the two dials, showing all the different energy flows in a simple and clear animation, maximizing driver understanding of the system's operation.

The button for e-Pedal is positioned in the centre console, behind the electric parking brake button, while the button to activate 100 per cent EV mode is between two of the central air-vents. When e-Pedal and EV mode are activated, visual reminders appear at the bottom of the combimeter screen.
The trunk space is 354 litres, a slight reduction of 68 litres compared to the petrol version, as a consequence of the packaging of the 1.2kWh battery pack. With rear seats folded, trunk space remains best in class with 1237 litres, while rear knee room remains unchanged at 553mm.

Still ugly. Throw away engine and transmission. Screen sticking up obscures visability. Wheels are too big and heavy. Two tone paint job is lame.

Still no panoramic roof nor opening roof! :(

When will you be able to make a driving review?

[sandilemajiya]

This is a big Nissan Magnet 🤣🤣🤣🤣 they look alike especially at rear designe.

[marcelolorenzzo]

Carro massa!! Ele já está a venda no Brasil?

[neiltaylor]

143bhp petrol & electric hybrid? Is this the same engine in the Clio E-Tech?

[vault-boydan]

Hope you will review and test it for us when you will be able to get hands on one 😁. Love your reviews man 👍.

Salut Dan il est beau le nouveau Juke Merci Dan

I've been re-watching this video over and over again... Not because of the car, but because of the song. Especially since I've searched the internet and I can't find this version of the song ANYWHERE.
