SHOWING YOU CARE: Only 50 Nissan Juke GTs will be for sale in South Africa

Following the resounding success of Juke in South Africa, Nissan has added a new limited-edition model to the popular compact crossover range.

And when it says limited, Nissan means limited: only 50 of the new Nissan Juke GT will be made available to local drivers.

Aimed squarely at the trendy GenerationY, the funky Nissan Juke GT is an even more daring and youthful iteration of the compact crossover which has captivated thousands of motorists around the world. The release of the original Juke boosted Nissan's reputation for offering bold, risk-taking vehicles and crossover innovation.

The Nissan Juke GT is based on the 140kW, 240Nm Juke 1.6 DIG-T Tekna. But it has leather seats and features a number of special personalisation upgrades to set it apart.

The features include sporty GT stripes in black or white, matching colour-coded mirror caps, GT badges and striking 17-inch Hot Black alloy wheels, which are imported from Europe.

The limited-edition Juke will include the standard stuff like automatic climate control; a multifunction steering wheel; cruise control; full audio integration with USB, aux and Bluetooth compatibility; keyless entry and starting and automatic lights and wipers.

These join a host of safety equipment including ABS with EBD and Brake Assist System, six airbags and Vehicle Dynamic Control with traction control.

The new, limited-edition Nissan Juke GT retails for R298200 including VAT.

Buyers will get the same three-year, 100000km warranty and three-year, 90000km service plan available for all Juke models.
