BALI - Test drive Nissan Juke this time is different from the usual brand holder agent (APM) general. No convoy, while Nissan Motor Indonesia (NMI) invites journalists to test drive Nissan's Juke towards Bedugul and Pecatu route.
"We have to equip the participants the media test drive with the GPS, the route is in the settings, so just follow the instructions only. After all if the convoy was too long and would disrupt traffic, "said Teddy Irawan, Vice President of National Sales and Marketing Group at the Media Briefing NMI in the courts of the Hard Rock Hotel, Kuta, Bali.
A total of 15 Nissan Juke NMI prepared to transport the 45 journalists from various electronic media, print and online throughout the day, Monday (16 / 5) will test the ability of HR15DE engine capacity of 1,500 cc in Bali. One Nissan Juke filled at least 3 reporters.
The journey begins from the Hard Rock Hotel, Kuta with the aim of Bedugul. Out of the Hard Rock parking lot, participants test drive media already faced with heavy traffic conditions and creep. "Luckily have not used the event the convoy," said a friend of one car with vegacar.blogspot.com.
Relying on the GPS, the participants do not have to worry about getting lost even if not in the convoy. vegacar.blogspot.com along with two other media that are in car number 14, chose not to go in convoy. The reason, do not want to increase the complexity of traffic in Kuta, the day was very solid.
Carrying the same machine with the Nissan Livina, we can immediately feel the pull that can be stomping when the gas pedal a little more in the press. Juke held machine that is already experiencing the development through a dual injection system and twin CVTC, coupled with the transmission that has been using the latest generation Xtronic CVT, a friend who was behind the wheel became more confident.
"Powernya reach 114 Dk, Dk is Livina only 109, so quite large for a cross-over," said Teddy Irawan, when describing the kitchen runway Nissan Juke.
Jukes, plus Teddy is equipped with Nissan's latest technology, namely the Integrated Control System (I-CON). This technology serves as the main command center (central command) and provides useful information for the driver. I-CON combine control air-conditioning (A / C), with the drive selector feature, which allows motorists to drive Juke choose 3 options in accordance with their needs
Solid road conditions in some areas crawling through, forcing us to activate the feature 'Changeable driving mode' which has three options: Normal, Sport and Eco. Each mode has a setting engine, transmission, steering and climate are different.
The driver just choose the three driving modes in accordance with traffic conditions and the desire, which was on display in the middle of the dashboard. Enough with subtle touches. Normal mode, for example, is very suitable to deal with traffic conditions daily, either as the streets in Bali and Jakarta or other big cities in Indonesia.
Sport mode will be enabled when the driver is better suited to develop more speed. Switching from normal to sport mode, can be felt immediately. Even when you make sudden braking, four wheel feels more gripping.
Eco fashion will be very useful to use when you want to drive efficiently, for example through traffic that does not require high speed, like being in the countryside or mountains. It has also been adapted to the air temperature inside the cabin which will automatically feel more warm, in accordance with the principles of eco.
Sport Mode
Once separated from the Kuta area, traffic conditions can be invited to a compromise seemed to develop more speed. "Okay, we try to use the sport mode," I said to the friend who sat behind the steering wheel. When the button is pressed into sport mode, direct car accelerates. The longer, more toned, even in a matter of minutes its speed has reached more than 100 km per hour.
Wush ... wush, Juke racing and overtaking other cars, unfortunately, the pace like that did not last long, when we want to increase the speed again, in front of the traffic flow had begun faltering. It is time, sport mode is transferred to the normal position again.
Apart from congestion, Juke again drove at high speed through the area Seminyak, Sempidi, Baturiti. As presented Teddy Irawan, path we passed a very diverse, ranging from traffic congestion, road uphill and down, even with sharp turns.
So far, Nissan Juke did not find obstacles. Even when you overtake a few cars in front, sometimes with a distance of a very thin, but my friend who was behind the wheel is very confident with the performance of Juke. Besides relying on its 1,500 cc engine, Juke also supported with automatic transmission that uses construction continuously variable transmission (CVT) with the latest Xtronic technology.
This transmission has the advantage in convenience. During a gearshift, the driver or passenger does not feel any jerk. Even within a specific speed, power electronic steeringnya will automatically feel more severe, this condition will make the driver more confidence.
Arrive in the area of Bedugul, the group came directly to a restaurant .. One route managed to pass safely without a hitch, after lunch the journey will continue to Denpasar and stopped at the Nissan dealer.
However, this route will pass through rural roads in the area Jatiluwih. According to Teddy, this route deliberately chosen to test the suspension Nissan Juke. "The road was small, damaged, uphill and down, but viewnya great for location shooting," he added.
Correct what was said Teddy. The entrance to the area Jatiluwih other than small, a lot of potholes with asphalt condition smooth, rough, even destroyed, aka many holes. But thanks to mac pherson type strut suspension in front and torsion beam in the rear plus stabilizer, Juke able to absorb sudden maneuvers by the driver.
Unfortunately because the suspension a bit harsh, space in the cabin was noisy. Though rim with a ring 17 inches and 55 profile tires with already highly qualified.
Remove from Jatiluwih region, immediately shot past Juke smoothly paved streets, heading for Nissan dealers in Denpasar. Sport mode was switched back to achieve the desired speed.
From Denpasar, the car is directed to the region as an end of travel Pecatu test drive Nissan's Juke at the island resort.
Vegacar.blogspot.com turn sitting behind the wheel. After setting the seat, the car came directly to Pecatu region. "Do not be late, because of the sunset will appear about half-five," said the friend next door.
No need to adjust too long to get driving experience with the Juke. In minutes, you are directly familiar with the character of the car which is a blend of SUV and the compact sports coupe this.
Visibility out of the windshield is extremely wide plus a sitting position like this SUV, allows drivers to overtake the cars in front.
It looks different between car-mobi who were in the streets, making a number of riders allowed Juke passed without a hitch. This situation is of course beneficial, as travel to Pecatu without barriers to watch the sunset.
