2020 Nissan Juke to come out on September 3, 2019

MANILA: In today's world where car producers roll out facelifts pretty much every year, the Nissan Juke has had an eight-year-long journey in its first generation. While the quirky design language might still grab eyeballs on most of the occasions, it won't be any wrong to say that the Japanese crossover is long due for an overhaul. With the competition in the crossover segment stiffer than ever, there couldn't have been a much better situation for the arrival of second-generation Juke.

Much before the global unveiling, Nissan has unleashed a teaser image of the upcoming Juke. What we see is a two-tier headlamp setup similar to the current-gen Juke, albeit in a revisited form. There are high-set LED DRLs at the end of the hood and much larger headlamps which reside inside the front bumper. To no surprise, there is also the signature "V-motion grill" giving the crossover an exhilarating look. "Urban meteor with a nasty attitude" are the words cited by Nissan design chief Alfonso Albaisa. Thus, expect the second-generation Nissan Juke to be a lot more aggressive and menacing than the current model.

More information available about the upcoming crossover by Nissan says that the revisited Juke will be underpinned by the new CMF-B platform. Moreover, it will also be both longer and wider than the current model. The new Juke is also said to feature the same architecture and powertrains as the Nissan Micra/March.

Which means that the revamped Nissan Juke might be powered by a couple of turbocharged motors. Nissan's electric e-Power tech is also said to make its way to the crossover. Soon after the global unveiling in September, later this year, the 2020 Nissan Juke may also make an appearance in the region at the October slated 2019 Tokyo Motor Show.
