When he isn?t blasting down the highway in the Tumbler or the Lambo, even Bruce Wayne may desire something a little more practical and a little less extravagant to drive on his day off.
This may be right up his alley ? Nissan has released a special one-off Juke Nismo to celebrate its partnership with Warner Bros as well as the DVD and Blu-Ray release of Christopher Nolan?s third Batman film.
Developed by London-based Nissan Design Europe, the car cannot be bought or bid for; Nissan is giving only one lucky UK resident the chance to drive it home, through its Thrill Test online competition at www.builttothrill.co.uk.
Its official name is?The Dark Knight Rises?Juke Nismo, and it features matt black paintwork, a shark?s fin antenna and Bat insignia on the front grille, tailgate, kickplates and suede-trimmed Nismo sports seat headrests.
Downlighters mounted under the door mirrors project the famous Bat signal on to the floor, while an uplighter projects the same on to the black headlining inside.?There?s also black 18-inch Nismo alloy wheels with red detailing.
Otherwise the car is essentially a Juke Nismo, featuring the same?200 PS turbocharged 1.6 litre engine driven through a six-speed manual, the same uprated suspension setup and the same bodykit. 0-100 km/h is dealt with in under eight seconds.
UK order taking for the Juke Nismo starts in January, with first deliveries set for March. Two transmissions will be available ? a 2WD manual and 4WD CVT.?Prices?and specs will be released closer to launch.
Kia did something similar recently with its Optima K5, in collaboration with?DC and RIDES magazine. If you were the Dark Knight, which of the two would you prefer?
