Together, this next generation of vehicles will accelerate our transition to zero-emission mobility."

Nissan describes the surface treatment as "bold, multifaceted and polygonal," with the faceted theme carried across every body panel, wheel arch, bumper and light cluster. It also features a distinct light signature at both the front and rear.

"JUKE has always stood for bold design and a willingness to challenge convention. With this third generation, we are bringing that spirit into the electric age," said Clíodhna Lyons, Region Vice President, Product, Brand & Marketing Strategy, Nissan AMIEO. "As our first fully electric JUKE, it will help us reach new customers while expanding choice across our electrified range."

Nissan Juke EV: Platform and Battery

The new Juke is built on the CMF-EV platform and shares much of its underpinnings with the Leaf, alongside which it will be produced at Nissan's Sunderland factory in the UK. Two liquid-cooled battery options are expected - 52 kWh and 75 kWh - mirroring the Leaf's setup. Nissan has not confirmed range or power figures yet, with full technical details expected closer to launch.

The Juke EV will offer Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) capability, allowing it to send stored energy back to the grid. The interior is expected to use the Leaf's Google-based infotainment system, though Nissan has not officially confirmed cabin details. A dual 14.3-inch screen setup for the driver cluster and central infotainment is anticipated, based on the current Leaf's layout.
