MY23 Nissan JUKE

 

The Nissan JUKE has welcomed key updates for the 2023 model year, with Australia's most-stylish light SUV introducing new design elements and improved cabin technology.

The JUKE will continue to be offered in five well-equipped grades, stepping from ST to ST+, then ST-L, ST-L+, and the flagship Ti or Ti Energy Orange models.

The entire range now benefits from aerodynamic changes, first debuted on electrified JUKE models.

New for 2023 is updated badging across the JUKE range, along with the introduction of two striking new exterior colour options —cool Ceramic Grey and vibrant Magnetic Blue, the latter of which replaces Vivid Blue in the JUKE's colour palette.

JUKE ST and ST+ models then introduce a new 17-inch alloy wheel designs, further upping the style factor, while ST-L models debut new black interior elements, along with leather-accented seats* with detailed white stitching for the first time.

Practicality is key in the light SUV segment, and the JUKE ST-L, ST-L+ and Ti grades introduce a new luggage board to help make the most of the boot storage, already among the largest in its class.

With technology at the core of the JUKE story, ST-L, ST-L+ and Ti grades also introduce a new Intelligent KeyTM with proximity locking and unlocking, while the premium Bose stereo system — which includes a pair of UltraNearfield speakers integrated into both front-seat headrests – in the JUKE ST-L+ and Ti grades gains an additional two rear speakers, bringing the total to 10 and delivering a truly immersive audio experience to every seat.

"This evolution of the JUKE range delivers yet more appeal to one of the country's most stylish SUVs," says Nissan Australia managing director, Adam Paterson.

"But style is nothing without substance, and the MY23 JUKE delivers plenty of both.

"It's a hugely exciting time for Nissan, as we're in the middle of a brand-wide refresh that will give us one of the newest and most exciting vehicle lineups in the country. And the updated JUKE is an important part of that story."

The MY23 additions only add to the JUKE in Australia, with the fashion-forward SUV still powered by a turbocharged 1.0-litre, three-cylinder engine that produces 84kW and 180Nm, and which is paired with a seven-speed DCT as standard, delivering an unrivalled combination of efficiency and excitement.

The high-tech powertrain perfectly matches the fun-to-drive nature of the Nissan JUKE, while returning an impressive ADR combined cycle fuel economy figure of just 5.8L/100km#, making the Nissan JUKE among the most fuel-efficient SUVs in Australia.

Its stylish and spacious interior, bold and youthful exterior design, and its full five-star ANCAP safety rating all combine to deliver a rewarding, exciting SUV experience.
