Nissan has partnered with Ministry of Sound, a global youth entertainment business that hosts and brands events to create the Juke Box. As the name suggests, it involves the automaker's funky-looking Juke crossover packed with the ultimate mobile sound system, capable of producing up to 150dB of sound pressure level.

The car will be shown off and strut its stuff during each stop on the Summer Sessions tour across Europe, with the first event being the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race that kicks off on Friday, June 15.

The sound system was designed and built by Martin Audio, which was hired by Ministry of Sound in the past for its London home system. Called The Box, it was built in 1991 and is a five-sided room within a room that is said to be acoustically perfect.

The Juke system packs 18,900W into the five-door, and is said to be self-sufficient in both power and production, meaning it runs off the car's 12V system and engine and has its own choice of sources.

There are two 18-inch subwoofers mounted on the inside of the hatch so they are high in the air once the hatch is opened. The mid- and high-driver enclosures are the same ones used at Ministry of Sound events and are said to be both loud and produce high quality.

The car can also act as a PA system and has its own DJ booth and ambient lighting. An integrated radio studio will broadcast whatever is played through the car to Ministry of Sound's digital radio app.
