Unknown to the battalion, the Nissan Juke Nismo takes advantage of its unpopularity to display attractive second-hand prices. So why not take the step towards this nice UFO?
Trick question: what does the Nismo label mean to you at Nissan? The legendary Skyline, of course! But what else? Superb coupes like the 350Z and 370Z, too! But what else? A high-performance model like the GT-R, of course! What if we talked to you about the Juke instead? Many people don’t know it, but the small SUV also got its own Nismo version, which completely went under the radar.
This anonymity is strongly felt in second-hand vehicles, where this exotic machine has very competitive prices. As proof, the cheapest copy we found on La Centrale only costs 11,490 euros.. At eleven years old, it is relatively new and has 110,500 km on the clock, which is still very low. As a result, the bodywork does not show any snags, at least in the photos provided by the seller.
Generous equipment for the time
On board, the Alcantara bucket seats limit breakage by managing to contain their aging better than leather which is likely to crack. We will also notice a specific steering wheel with a mark at twelve o’clock as well as a rev counter on a red background with the Nismo logo.In terms of equipment, the Juke Nismo is generous with a reversing camera, heated seats, aluminum pedals, Arkamys sound system and hands-free access and starting.
Under the hood is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder developing 200 hp and 249 Nm of torque. It is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox.. In addition to a more assertive style, the Juke Nismo has reworked damping and revised steering for more bite. Also, a more edgy version called Nismo RS was on the program. Displayed at a minimum of 12,500 euros, it is barely more expensive second-hand.
