Nissan Qazana crossover concept is ready for debut – production car to be called Juke

This is a teaser image of Nissan’s Juke crossover, which will be unwrapped for the media next month. It is basically the Qazana crossover concept that Nissan showed off at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show which looks to have survived the transition from concept to production car unharmed. We can see that the glasshouse, mega wheel arches and lights that sit ON the bonnet are all retained, although we can’t really tell if the concept’s rear-hinged “suicide doors” are incorporated.

This means that the Juke, which will be made alongside the Qashqai at Nissan’s Sunderland UK plant, will be one of the most distinctive cars on the road once it goes on sale in October. It is positioned between the Note compact car and the Qashqai in Nissan’s range.

According to Nissan’s customer research, a large proportion of European compact car buyers’ needs are not met by “copycat hatchbacks” which they perceive to be uninspiring options. This is where the funky Juke comes in.

  • nissan europe has nicer cars, no doubt about it.

    well i do seriously hope the Qashqai and this comes down to Malaysia.

    the Murano already is distinctive looking, stands out from the rest but the price also stands out from the rest too.

    a refreshed line up of cars, transparent pricing, is just what nissan needs to stay competitive in our dying auto industry.

    hope this one and qashqai gets here…

    sorry to say, nissan's current line up in malaysia are boring cars.

    except for latio hartchback and murano.

    gt-r and 350z 370z are brought in by gray importers.

    hope nissan bring in more cars to tailor for the young.

    otherwise they will be losing the market pie.

    impul-ing the livina and slyphy just wont work….

    Juke really seems to be a funny name but hope the car will get more than its share of laughs. NIssan is a good company and so the car is most probably one of the best to be introduced this year.
