US-Spec Nissan Juke to Debut at 2010 NY Auto Show in March [Plus Video, Presentation Photos and Spec Sheet]


Nissan today revealed that the it's all-new Juke small crossover will appear in North American guise at the 2010 New York Auto Show in late March, following the world premiere of the European-spec model at the Geneva Salon in the beginning of March.

The compact-sized Juke, which was inspired by the Qazana concept car, is scheduled to join the Nissan lineup in the United States later this fall.

We'll have to wait for the NY Show for more details on the NA model, but in Europe, three engines will be available, including a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter petrol with 117HP, a 1.6-liter turbocharged petrol rated at an impressive for its size output of 190HP.

There also a 110HP 1.5-liter turbo diesel, but don't expect to see this engine on this side of the Atlantic any time soon.
