1600cc direct injection engine, 190 horsepower /24.5 Torque.
There are a lot of hills and slopes in Kyushu,
That is why we choose this powerful JUKE!
And because it's an SUV,
a spacious trunk is also available!
Sharp appearance, small but powerful.
How cute are these Japanese vehicles!

perfection when you arrive to your vehicle.
The basic speed limit in Japan is about 60-100 km.

and an ETC entrance.
It you use cash, go through the green one gate.
