Nissan has debuted the 2014 Juke Nismo RS at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The Sporty compact crossover is the most powerful in the Juke lineup and receives a set of features that make it more sporty and entertaining.
Nissan will sell a GT-R Special Edition in limited quantities in the US, with a hand-painted Midnight Opal paintjob.
A huge focus for this new Pathfinder was fuel economy. As such, it’s cut over 500 pounds off of the 2012 Pathfinder, with base front-wheel-drive models tipping the scales at 4149 pounds, while the four-wheel-drive Pathfinder is a mere 4290 pounds. The resulting boost to fuel economy is impressive, with 20 miles per gallon in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway.
The Pathfinder is motivated by a V-6 of undisclosed displacement and output, while shifting doesn’t really happen at all, thanks to a continuously variable transmission. This combination should be good for a 25-percent increase in overall fuel economy. No seven-passenger SUV worth its salt would come to market without an all-wheel-drive option, and the Pathfinder Concept is no exception. It should also be quite capable in the realm of towing.
Nissan has released pricing and images (three of them) for the updated 2010 Sentra. The news here: the prices have been reduced, and the Sentra offers a navigation package for the first time, which has been priced at a mere $400. A rearview monitor has also been made available.
