The combustion engine in the Juke was specially developed for use in a hybrid system. It produces 69 kW (94 hp) and develops a maximum torque of 148 Nm. It is supported by an electric motor with 36 kW (49 hp) and a torque of 205 Nm. In addition, the system consists of a 15 kW starter generator, an inverter and a water-cooled 1.2 kWh battery. The bottom line is that the powertrain offers 25 percent more power than the current gasoline engine, with fuel consumption dropping by about 40 percent in city driving and up to 20 percent in combined driving (figures subject to homologation). The Juke Hybrid's projected fuel consumption is 5.0 to 5.2 liters per 100 kilometers, which corresponds to CO2 emissions of 114 to 117 grams per kilometer (depending on equipment; fuel consumption and emissions figures subject to homologation). At the heart of the Nissan Juke Hybrid is an advanced, low-friction multimodal transmission. It transmits drive power to the wheels smoothly, responsively and efficiently - regardless of whether the vehicle is driving purely on electric power or is powered by the gasoline engine or a combination of both engines. The transmission is tuned so that the vehicle can be operated in first gear purely electrically, allowing it to accelerate up to 55 km/h.
