Nissan Juke Reviews, Specs, Prices, what car reviews, Nissan released its newest product called the Juke. Nissan Juke is one of the sport SUV model that will become a mainstay of the market to compete with the Nissan car class. With a strong physical form coupled with a 1500 cc engine HR15DE it is worth if Nissan hopes this new product will be a dream car in Indonesia. The fans also can not wait to see what kind of specs and prices which photo Nisaan Juke has a lot of pictures scattered on the internet.

Besides using the 1500cc engine, Juke also has a 1600 cc engine variants (MR16DDT) equipped with a turbocharger. All these advantages are offered with very reasonable prices.
The new Nissan Juke is the third ‘crossover’ model in the Japanese company’s range. Size-wise it sits in its own niche between traditional superminis such as the Ford Fiesta and small family cars like the Volkswagen Golf.

Interior
Its interior design falls short of the dramatic exterior. The dashboard, while perfectly acceptable, is disappointingly conventional, especially in a class where the Mini, Audi A1 and even the Ford Fiesta are as distinctive inside as out.

The painted console between the front seats – supposedly inspired by the fuel tank of a motorbike – is a token effort to inject some interest. The fact that none of the three paint finishes used in the interior match is a small niggle but one which typifies the general lack of attention to detail that gives its rivals far superior perceived quality.
The Nissan Dynamic Control system – standard on all but base Visia trim – is also unresolved. Its single, colour screen can display either climate control settings or, with the press of a button, three different driving modes: Eco, Normal and Sport.

Grown-up on the road
On the road the Juke is well resolved on the whole. Its steering is a little numb but its feels more agile than its height would suggest.

It’s not as neat as a Mini or Fiesta when changing direction but this isn’t really a car to be driven flat-out. It’s much better to relax a little and enjoy the overall refinement.
It rides reasonably but a little more suppleness would be welcome over broken city streets when it can feel stiff-legged.

2011 Nissan Xterra Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, For 2011 the Xterra sees minor changes to a model line that includes X, S, Off-Road, and SE models, with all but the Off-Road available with two-wheel drive. Changes for the new model year include an X Gear Package — available on S and SE — which includes fog lamps, roof rack crossbars, a gear basket, first aid kit, and cargo net, with the last two exclusive to the SE.

Introduced in the year 2000 after debuting in 1999 in the Detroit auto show is the Xterra. The Xterra was an immediate success and appeals to young, busy consumers. The Xterra fuses exceptional on/off road handling, great performance, and aggressive style. It was named the SUV of the Year by Motor Trend in 2000.

The newest Xterra is now in its third generation and it\’s a fantastic combo. It\’s outfitted with a V-6, 261 hp motor, body-on-frame design, and a live rear axle. It\’s bold, brazen, and it sports a roof rack and a rear step as standard embellishments. The 2011 configurations are, for the most part, carryovers of earlier configurations. Thus, the Xterra continues to be quite appealing. This vehicle competes with Toyota\’s FJ Cruiser and the Jeep Wrangler.

The Xterra and the Pathfinder, the Titan truck, as well as the Armanda SUVs share a similar platform. It has a 106.3 inch wheelbase, and is off-road capabilities are exceptional. It sports a fold flat seat in the second row thereby increasing cargo space to as much as 65.7 ft.³

Xterra\’s classic styling cues include a built-in roof rack with closable storage, rear side steps for roof access, and available roof-mounted fog lamps. Oversized fender flares and high-mounted rear door handles integrated into the C-pillars round out the stout look. With a built-in first-aid kit, tie-down channel system, and \”easy clean\” cargo area with ten cargo hooks, the Xterra treats further with keyless entry, tilt steering column, under-floor cargo storage, a 60/40-split rear seat, and available leather trim.

Every Xterra utilizes a 4.0-liter V-6 that delivers 261 horsepower. A six-speed manual is standard on X and Off-Road models, with a five-speed automatic fitted to the S and SE. A front control-arm/rear live-axle suspension underpins Xterra, with towing capacity coming in at 6000 pounds. In addition to a skid plate for the radiator, the Off-Road gets protection for the oil pan, fuel tank, and transfer case.

Nissan equips every Xterra with front, front-side, and side curtain airbags, the latter for outboard occupants in both rows. The Xterra also receives front-seat active head restraints, stability control, and a tire pressure monitoring system.

Born with a crossover turned out to make Nissan Juke looks weird. Yes it is the first impression when looking at Nissan Juke. Japanese car offers a unique concept and quite rare.

But do not misjudge, Nissan Juke rather peculiar car. Juke is a crossover car that is ready to deliver a sense of driving is different.
Front view, Nissan Juke such as not using bumpers. Juke carrying oval bumper design and grille together with a deliberately designed to look like a spider\’s web. But it looks sporty blend. In this case Nissan is still concerned with the flow of air into the engine room.

While the two supporting characters round headlamp Juke until flawless frightening. But there is a unique face Juke. That is where the small lamp on the left and right hood. After investigation, the design was for us to monitor the front area of the car from the passenger cabin.

While the middle to the rear is not unique to miss. The combination of wide in front and seemed to shrink into the stern of maximizing the aerodynamic aspect of the car. So overall, the external appearance such as Nissan Juke suitable for young souls who hooked plesiran.

Being in the passenger cabin of Nissan Juke we feel not unlike SUVs, sedans and crossovers are widely circulated in the market. The dashboard Juke simple enough to be refitted as audio, USB, iPod, which enabled the manual steering, and seats that can be backed by advance lever under the seat.

Fun passenger cabin is quite spacious and the rear corner of the Juke easily monitored especially with the parking sensors. While the outlook is quite relieved. Unfortunately the design of the A-pillars are too difficult for us to monitor the outside front corner of the left and right.

There is a reasonable discussion to bumper design. Our conjecture is true if the turn signal located on the side of the hood it could serve to monitor the front area. We make lights that are categorized as a benchmark because the engine width.

Machine was turned on. Buzzing of the engine capacity of 1500 cc HR15DE Xtronic CVT is quite smooth. Excess Nissan Juke is equipped with a choice of driving modes. There are three options namely Eco driving modes, Standard and Sport. Each mode has a character different machines.

All that you can activate via the integrated keypad on the front console. If you press the D-Mode, a small screen will present the driving modes to suit your desires. But if you press the Climate, the screen will move to AC regulator. With it you can adjust the temperature as desired.

Curiosity by Juke getting bigger, it\’s time to try driving eco mode. When There\’s pressing eco button, the screen will show a green color. 1500 cc engine was very poor effort.

While we walk on the gas pedal, the engine feels sluggish performance ride. With eco mode, the engine is still less show a good performance. The condition seemed to correspond with the name of eco.

Time to try driving mode. Then the screen shows a white color. Well, the engine gets a little effort. When the gas pedal in the foot, the engine turns faster rise than eco mode. How does driving a sports mode?

Well, for one was very different. In accordance with the character of sport, messin more responsive. Footing for the footing was terisis. This technology seems ideal for those who want to explore the speed with Nissan Juke.

When driven on the highway, the engine is a little sound to the cabin and a bit disturbing. But the sound is pretty standard for Japanese auto output.

There is a fun ride on the excess side of the Nissan Juke namely the wheel. Juke steering is quite light thanks to the electronic power steering. However at high speeds, the steering is rather heavy. Fun conditions that make lighter riders twist at the site stalled. Fulfilled if the Juke is nimble crossover.

Unfortunately Macpherson strut suspension in front and torsionbeam (back) who was not able to pass the tough streets of a little bumpy when we went to the corner. Juke rear body feels a little bit giddy. But apart from that Juke remained stable despite lauched to 150 km / h in wet and dry lanes.

2011 Nissan Versa Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, The 2011 Versa gets a light helping of new kit, notably a standard six-disc CD audio system for the 1.8 S sedan and anti-lock brakes on all models sans the entry-level 1.6 Base. That said the 2010 model year saw the Versa receive myriad refinements, including a new grille, fresh wheels, and availability of stability and traction control and navigation.

The Versa is much like the Cube and Juke from Nissan. It is based on the B platform. The Nissan Versa is not as costly as the Nissan Sentra, but it has less in terms of quality performance. The Versa 1.6 base sedan is priced at $10,740.00 and it has the lowest cost of all Nissan offerings. The vehicle is offered with either the 1.8-Liter Inline-four with 122 hp or the 1.6 Liter inline-four offering 107 hp. Four trannys are offered too: the 4 speed auto, the 6 speed manual, the CVT, and the 5-speed manual. The Nissan Versa sports 14 inch wheels, a front strut rear torsion beam suspension, and rear drum brakes.

The low price is clearly appealing, and the Nissan Versa certainly offers many options and a lot of versatility. Features offered include the addition of a navigation system, intelligent key features, Bluetooth connectivity, a satellite radio, and more. It has 50.4 cubic feet of cargo space in hatch variants, and there is plenty of legroom in the rear seating area, more than the Nisan Maxima offers.

Versa comes in four-door sedan and hatchback bodystyles, both adorned with inconspicuous sheetmetal. To dress up the rather bland appearance, the Versa offers 16-inch alloy wheels, a rear spoiler, side sill extensions, and fog lamps.

Unlike most small cars, the Versa offers a roomy cabin for five, replete with 38.0-inches of rear legroom and 13.8 (sedan) to 17.8 (hatch) cubic feet of cargo space. The hatchback\’s 60/40-split folding backseat enlarges cargo to 50.4 cubic-feet.

Versa offers a pair of engines along with a foursome of transmissions. The 1.6-liter 107-horsepower mill found in 1.6 Base and 1.6 models come teamed to either a four-speed automatic or five- or six-speed manual. The 1.8-liter, 122-horsepower unit in 1.8 S and 1.8 SL models is teamed with a six-speed manual, four-speed auto, or CVT. Versa\’s suspension features front struts and a rear torsion beam.

The Versa comes with a barrage of safety equipment, including front, front-side, and side curtain airbags as well as front-seat active head restraints, a tire pressure monitoring system, and, on the 1.8 SL model, anti-lock brakes and stability control.

2011 Nissan GT-R Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, The base GT-R has been dropped, leaving the Premium as the only model for 2011. Nissan has added rear cooling ducts to enhance cooling performance around the rear floor. Additional changes include a suspension retuned for a better ride, double clear coat on the fascias, and standard auto on/off headlamps, speed-sensitive wipers, USB iPod interface, Bluetooth audio, and XM NavTraffic and NavWeather capability.

The Nissan GT-R is the carmakers official move into the world of supercars. It has sixty to zero braking that is exceptional and an impressive zero-to-sixty acceleration. It is exceptional in its quarter mile timing too. The vehicle houses a 3.8-Liter V-6 engine that is twin turbocharged. It offers 489 horsepower. The engine is joined to a hand-assembled dual-clutch auto tranny as well. In addition, the torque flow is flawless.

The GT-R has a rear mount trans axle offering AWD functions. The latter improves vehicular weight, acceleration, handling, and braking. On the track and off the track the vehicle\’s Brembo brakes are outstanding, even when running laps at Nurburgring. The GT-R offered the fastest production time ever at the Nurburgring track. It is exceptional, well designed, light, nimble, aerodynamically crafted, rigid, and its exterior styling is elegant. The exterior is made of meshed steel, aluminum, and carbon fiber materials.

Nissan designers set out to pen a distinctive supercar, not a typical low-slung exotic; thus, the GT-R is chunkier and more muscular than, say, a Ferrari. It intentionally lacks sophistication, instead looking mean, techno, and macho.

The GT-R features a leather-adorned cabin for four, PlayStation-inspired multifunction display, nav system, Bose audio, heated seats, and Bluetooth. The driver\’s seat slides nine inches and raises 1.2 inches. The steering wheel both tilts and telescopes 2.4 inches.

The GT-R\’s handbuilt 3.8-liter V-6 uses plasma-coated cylinder bores to ensure optimal efficiency and twin IHI turbochargers to produce 485 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque. Its six-speed dual-clutch auto, also handbuilt, seamlessly transmits power via an ATTESA E-TS all-wheel-drive system. A Brembo brake system, along with an all-aluminum suspension with Bilstein dampers, provide race-worthy braking and handling.

In addition to front, side, and side-curtain airbags, the GT-R is equipped with a tire-pressure monitoring system, four-wheel anti-lock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution, and front seat belts with pretensioners and load limiters.

2011 Nissan Sentra Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, The 2011 Nissan Sentra receives a host of revised option packages as well as new standard equipment. The list of new packages includes the SL Value Package, SL Audio Package, and Visual Audio Package, which is available on the 2.0 S and 2.0 SR. Navigation is now standard in the SE-R Upgrade Package, while ABS and stability and traction control are standard on the 2.0.

The Nissan Sentra entered the market in 1985 and its is the carmakers oldest offering. The Sentra combines excellent economy, reliability, and performance. The 1991 debut of the SE-R had consumers turning their heads. The SE-R sports a 2.0 Liter, 140 horsepower engine, a limited slip differential, and a sport-tuned suspension. It is a leading seller for Nissan.

The last few models haven\’t met the established Sentra standards however. This leaves the car struggling against models from Chevrolet, Honda, and Hyundai. All of the latter manufacturers offer smaller vehicles with greater style, better economy and greater dynamics. The long coveted SE-R is now lacking too. The Spec V, its upper trim, is struggle with the likes of the Honda Civic Si, the Mazdaspeed3, and the VW GTI.

Nissan will have to give the Sentra a major upgrade to remain in the car segment as a competitor. Its current C platform has an aging torsion beam suspension in the rear. The addition of an independent rear suspension would be a good step forward. Hopefully Nissan will give the Sentra redesign soon.

Using a long 105.7-inch wheelbase, short overhangs, and large door openings, the Sentra sports a stubby appearance. In addition to last year\’s new headlamps, taillamps, and front fascia, the 2011 2.0 S and 2.0 SL get an SE-R-style rear spoiler. The Sentra possesses a five-person interior with 97.7 cubic-feet of passenger volume. The trunk, at 13.1 cubic-feet, offers generous cargo space, which can be enlarged via an oversized pass-through and a 60/40-split folding rear seat.

Motivating the Sentra is a 2.0-liter, 140-horsepower I-4 mated to a six-speed manual or CVT. The suspension is comprised of front struts and a rear torsion beam. The high-performance Nissan Sentra SE-R and SE-R Spec V up the ante with larger 2.5-liter I-4s, delivering 177 (SE-R) and 200 horsepower (Spec V). While both boast sport suspensions and larger brakes, the Spec V touts a limited slip differential.

Every Sentra is equipped with front, front-side, and side curtain airbags. Moreover, all Sentras get front-seat active head restraints, while the 2.0 SL, SE-R, and SE-R Spec V receive stability and traction control.

Engines: 2.0L I-4, 2.5L I-4

2011 Nissan Titan Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, The Titan receives minor updates for the 2011 model year, including a \”4×4\” badge affixed to the tailgates on four-wheel-drive S, SV and SL models. The luxurious SL model gets standard captain\’s chairs. And the new PRO-4X/SL Technology Package features a moonroof, a navigation system, and a DVD entertainment system with flip-down eight-inch LCD, remote control, auxiliary input, and wireless headphones

The Nissan Titan was Nissan first truck entering the full sized segment in 2004. It was engineered to compete with Ford F-150s, Chevy Silverados, and Toyota Tundras. It was at one time assembled in Mississippi. The Titan was a huge seller in the US for several years. After economical changes however, truck buyers looked for vehicles offering greater fuel economy. The absence of a new Titan generation reduced sales too.

Still, the Titan remains appealing for the truck buying consumer. It houses a V-8 motor. It vehicle\’s exterior is solid, and it has four wheel disc brakes as well as four wheel drive options. The engine is an Endurance V-8 hosting 32 valves. The V-8 replaces the former 5.6 Liter, 385 hp engine with 385 foot pounds of torque. The V-8 is joined to a five speed auto tranny. The Titan\’s platform is the ladder frame F Alpha. It is made of tensile strength steel too. It tows 9500 pounds with ease, and it hosts a control arm front, and a solid-axle-rear-suspension. The Titan remains a popular truck.

The Titan exterior wears a bold front end and cab design, highlighted by a standard 138.9-inch wheelbase. Bed lengths range from five feet, seven inches to seven feet, three inches. A nifty bedside bin provides storage for common work gear. Inside, the Titan offers the choice of a front bench seat with column shifter or front bucket seats with a floor shifter. Standard flip-up 60/40-split rear seats provide additional cargo room, and an optional overhead console system adds even more storage options.

A 5.6-liter Endurance V-8 that generates 317 horsepower and 385 pound-feet of torque, and can be run on E85 ethanol, serves as the sole engine for the Titan. Further, a five-speed automatic is the only transmission, although two axle ratios are offered. All Titans use a front control-arm/rear solid-axle suspension. The performance-oriented PRO-4X model boasts Rancho dampers, a 3.36 axle ratio, an electronic locking rear differential, and 18-inch alloys. Every Titan pickup truck comes with front, front-side, and side curtain airbags. Nissan also fits the Titan with front-seat active head restraints, stability and traction control, and a tire pressure monitoring system.

2011 Nissan Juke Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, The Juke is brand new for 2011, giving Nissan a standout player in the burgeoning small-crossover segment. Both the Juke\’s power plant — a direct-injected 1.6-liter turbocharged I-4 making 188-horsepower — and its available torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system are firsts for a Nissan crossover in the U.S. Both inside and out, the Juke boasts audacious design — styling Nissan hopes will attract young males.

The Nissan Juke for 2011 is a athletic coupelike sports utility vehicle that has entered the growing crossover segment. The latter segment is the fourth biggest in the US market, and it is definitely thriving. The Juke was first offered in the fall of 2010 and it was engineered to compete against the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, the Mini Countryman, the Scion xB, and the Kia Soul.

The Juke sports AWD and it offers a sport torque vectoring system dividing the torque 50/50 between the front and rear axles. It routes the torque across the rear axle from side to side as well; this decreases problems with corner handling and under steering.

The Cube, Versa, and Renault Clio share a platform with the Juke: the global B platform. It has a 1.6 Liter direct injection Inline-Four engine offering 188 hp/177 ft.lbs of torque. In the standard it sports a continuous variable auto tranny. In front drive configurations it sports a 6speed manual tranny. Definitely a nice vehicle offering smooth handling and exceptional driving manners. It has a moderate price too.

Inspired by the Qazana concept, the Juke features exaggerated, arched fenders, curvaceous, Volvo C30-esque taillamps, and a rally-style front end with bumper-integrated headlamps. The rear door handles are \”hidden\” for a coupe-like appearance, and 17-inch wheels are standard. Juke\’s bold exterior theme carries over inside, where a motorcycle-inspired center console adds spice to standard five-passenger seating, 60/40-split folding rear seat, Bluetooth phone, and USB/iPod connectivity. Options include navigation, power moonroof, and a back-up camera.
An all-new direct-injected 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-4 scoots the Juke quickly down the road, thanks to 188 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. A continuously variable automatic (CVT) comes standard, with a six-speed manual available on front-drive models. All-wheel-drive models get a multi-link rear suspension (FWD gets a torsion beam) as well as a torque-vectoring system that helps rotate the rear end. Driver and passenger front airbags are standard, along with front side bags and front and rear curtain bags. Additional safety features include front-seat active head restraints, electronic stability control, traction control, and a tire-pressure monitoring system.

2011 Nissan Maxima Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, Revisions for the 2011 Nissan Maxima focus on the Maxima SV with the sport package, which now wears smoked headlamps (in place of clear lenses), a \”dark chrome\” grille, special gray interior stitching, and new metallic interior trim. Maxima\’s color palette gets three new hues — Metallic Slate, Brilliant Silver and Pearl White — while the rear fascia receives a fresh tailpipe finisher.

One will notice the returning sports car, the Maxima, the earliest versions hosted a four-door sporty design that it once offered in the 80s and 90s. The 2009 models didn\’t maintain much of the car\’s main appealing attributes however. The fourth generation of the Nissan Maxima hosted a V-6 motor offering 190 hp joined to a five-speed manual tranny. The fifth/sixth generation entered the market with less sportiness. Simultaneously, car buyers demanded luxury and comfort over speed and athleticism.

Today\’s Maxima has a 4DSC sticker on the window. It has a V-6 offering 290 horsepower married to a CVT with sport mode. The Maxima is sold with a sport package too which allows for the additions of dampers, springs, paddle shifters, and 19-inch wheels.

Maxima\’s intent may be all sport, but it really is a family-oriented offering. The cabin is very spacious, it has a lot of cargo room, and it can seat as many as five passengers. Luxury features include things like auto-climate control, an eight-speaker stereo system, power front-seats, leather, a navigation system, a backup-camera, and a moonroof.

From the bulging hood and aggressively sculpted fenders to the L-shaped wraparound headlamps and 12-LED taillamps, every exterior cue of the Maxima is designed to suggest power and speed. Optional 19-inch alloys and a rear spoiler add flair. Maxima\’s interior concept — \”Super Cockpit, but with Space\” — is designed to impart the intimate feeling of a sports car with the utilitarian space of a sedan. Premium features include available leather-trimmed seats and navigation with 9.3GB music hard drive.

The Maxima\’s sole engine continues to be a 3.5-liter VQ-series V-6 that delivers 290 horsepower and 261 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed to the front wheels via a continuously variable automatic (CVT) transmission. A sport package adds paddle shifters, firmer suspension, and 19-inch wheels. All Maximas use a front strut/rear multi-link suspension. Nissan fits every Maxima with front, front-side, and side curtain airbags. The Maxima also boasts front-seat active head restraints, stability and traction control, and a tire pressure monitoring system.

2011 Nissan Armada Price, Review & Picture – New Car Reviews, For 2011 the Armada\’s lineup has been shuffled. The new SV and SL replace the previous SE and Titanium, respectively, while the top-of-the-line Platinum continues unchanged. New exterior (Espresso Black) and interior (Almond) hues are added to the color palettes. All two-wheel-drive models now come with a 2.94 rear axle ratio, helping increase towing capacity to 8200 pounds.

The Armada is an SUV from Nissan. It stems from the ladder frame F-Alpha platform. It is a full sized vehicle with the attributes of a truck if considering its payload and towing abilities, but it still looks sporty. The Armada can achieve zero-to-sixty in 6.8 seconds. It brakes from sixty-to-zero in 128 feet, and it has a eight seater, spacious interior. The vehicle is practical and spacious. It has a second row of seats that fold flat for even more space. The last row of seating has a 60-40 split so more cargo area is supplied too. The Armada is fitted with a 5.6-Liter V-8 engine coupled to a five-speed auto tranny.

This SUV grips the road for a .76g of lateral grip due to the inclusion of a control arm suspension. It rides like a sedan. It has exceptional handling an ergonomic styling. The V-8 Armada Endurance uses E-8 Flex Fuel or regular unleaded. It has a mediocre fuel economy delivering 12 mpg/18 mpg. A new model will appear in a year, based on the Japan-sourced Patrol. Armada\’s two-box design, out since 2004, has aged well, thanks in part to a bold front grille, flared fenders, and \”hidden\” rear door handles. Available exterior equipment includes fog lamps and a chrome roof rack. With a long 123.2-inch wheelbase but relatively short 207.7-inch overall length, the Armada manages to deliver impressive room for eight passengers and up to 97.1 cubic feet of cargo space. A gated floor-mounted shifter provides a carlike experience.

A 5.6-liter Endurance V-8 rated at 317 horsepower and 385 pound-feet of torque motivates the Armada with gusto. Paired to a five-speed automatic, the 5.6 pushes the 5700-pound Armada from 0 to 60 in under seven seconds. The full-size eight-passenger Armada features a heavy-duty fully boxed ladder frame and control-arm suspension, both of which contribute to 0.76 g lateral acceleration. The Armada comes fitted with front, front-side, and side curtain airbags, the last for outboard occupants in all three rows. The Armada also gets front-seat active head restraints, stability control, and a tire pressure monitoring system.
