Juke has fun styling, sharp performance, and decent cargo space. It's fun car to drive, in a jaunty, engaging way. The name Juke suggests flitting around town, as a boxer might juke around the ring, and it does just that.
It uses a 1. It's a great car for running errands, hauling small stuff, jumping in and out, and parking in tight places. It hugs winding roads with its responsive steering. But with its short wheelbase and big inch wheels, you feel the bumps. Nissan calls the Juke a sport cross, as in crossover between an SUV and sports car. It's built on the Versa platform, but for the sake of sport it's 7 inches shorter and 3 inches wider than the Versa hatchback.
It's popular with folks who like eye-catching design. It's been described as looking like an Australian jumping spider, and it's been called the Lady Gaga of compact crossovers. It hasn't changed much in its three years, although in late the racy Nismo model was added, bringing action to those sport cross words.
The Nismo offers tweaks, including ECU re-mapping that increases the horsepower and torque a bit, a 10 percent stiffer suspension, and a cool presence with hot-looking inch alloy wheels, a spoiler and more.
Inside, there's synthetic suede trim with red stitching, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with shift knob.
The Juke is offered in four trim levels counting the Nismo, with either front- or all-wheel drive, and a 5-speed manual transmission or 6-step CVT. The Juke seats five, but don't count on more than four for actually going anywhere.
The comfortable front seats are covered with a sporty fabric in the SV and impressive leather in the SL, with classy synthetic suede trim in the Nismo.
The center console design is inspired by a motorcycle gas tank, and its hard plastic trim is painted a glossy silver or deep metallic red.
It's distinctive and way cool. Center armrest, however, is optional. The real headlights were the big, rounded units installed in the bumper, at the same level with the chromed Nissan badge.
The upper lights were for turn signals and the position lights. Viewed from the side, there was a hatch-back inspired bodywork, with a sloped roofline that ended into a small spoiler placed on top of the liftgate.

Nissan Juke is good car special for lady's that's way i bought it for my wife. I love Nissan Juke, but the one i got ,i can say im disapointed as it is not in good condition First of all, the car in my parents' house is big.
I'm new to driving and need a smaller car. Nissan Juke fell in love at first sight, so I wanted to buy it because it was a great deal this time. Front seats are pretty fair for the Juke's size, with a height and backrest adjustable driver's seat, though again head and knee room aren't abundant, but merely adequate.
The back seats are probably best left folded down--to They're a bit higher than they need to be, which mashes taller occupants up against the headliner; the Juke can hold a pair of six-foot passengers, but not comfortably.
If you opt for the sunroof, you'll lose even more headroom. Flip down the rear seat and you'll get considerably more space, but still only about half of the volume you'll find in the Honda Fit. Leaving the rear seats in place, cargo room is just While the cabin might include a lot more features for , not much has changed about the materials or trims themselves; and that's quite alright as the presentation has always been a highlight—provided your tastes can run on the slightly garish side of performance-tinged.
The shiny, color-shifting seat upholstery looks a bit cartoonish, but at the same time cool. The plastics and switchgear are unmistakably bargain-basement, but they fit together well design-wise, which make it all quite forgivable. The Nissan Juke definitely isn't the top pick in its class if safety is one of your top priorities.
Its crash-test ratings may be cause for concern in some respects, however the Juke does have a good, solid set of safety features. Although the Juke this year has been given a modestly refreshed front and rear appearance, with new headlights and taillights, as well as a few other details, its body structure carries over unchanged—and thus, we don't expect its safety ratings to change significantly.
That said, last year's ratings for the Juke were reasonably good in some areas and mediocre in others. The Institute for Highway Safety IIHS gave the Juke top 'good' ratings in nearly all categories of testing—slthough in the small overlap test it only managed the lowest possible score of 'poor. The feds do give the Juke a top mark of five stars in side-impact crashworthiness, however, and four stars in rollover resistance.
Dual front airbags, side airbags, and side-curtain airbags are all standard, as are anti-lock brakes and stability control; as well as tire-pressure monitors that warn you of low tire pressures or proper ones, if you're inflating them by sounding the horn. You might expect the Juke, as a curvaceous, fashion-forward model, to have quite awful outward visibility. But that's not really the case; most drivers should find that rearward visibility is quite good, considering the short side windows and thick rear pillars.
All models now include a rearview monitor system, which helps with that, too; and standard on the SL or optional on the SV is a useful and potentially mishap-preventing Around View monitoring system with Moving Object Detection.
Nissan has, for , brought the Juke's feature list much more in line with its presentation, and it's now a vehicle that offers at least some of the advanced features that its sporty, fashion-forward exterior might suggest. Stepping up to the mid-range Juke SV, you add many of the more desired features, like the i-CON system, with its multiple driving modes and performance screens; automatic climate control; a moonroof; satellite radio; premium cloth upholstery; and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
At the top of the 'normal' Juke lineup, the SL gets fog lamps, perforated leather upholstery, and an upgraded infotainment system with navigation, voice recognition, SiriusXM Traffic info, and Sirius XM Travel Link, which includes fuel prices, weather, movie listings, and stock information. It also includes a Rockford Fosgate subwoofer and six upgraded speakers. Juke NISMO models add special sport bucket seats with additional bolstering, plus sport trim throughout the interior with a different shift knob and door switch panels, for instance , as well as red stitching for the rear seats, a black antenna, and lots of other NISMO-exclusive improvements.
Although keep in mind that even on those latter performance models if you want a manual transmission you'll have to forgo AWD. Additionally, there's a long list of port-installed options, including a front-seat armrests, a rear roof spoiler, a stainless exhaust finisher, an interior illumination package, and gunmetal or black inch alloy wheels.
The Nissan Juke is relatively fuel-efficient, if you gauge it against other sporty models; but versus other tall hatchbacks or the latest small crossovers it's surprisingly thirsty—especially in real-world driving, as we've found. On a combined basis, that's 1 mpg higher than last year for both models. Oddly, it's the more performance-oriented Juke NISMO that's the mileage leader of the lineup—due to its six-speed manual gearbox, which boosts the figures to 28 mpg city, 34 highway.
We've managed figured that are well below the Juke's combined EPA ratings in real-world driving—think more in the range of 22 to 24 mpg in city-and-commuting-style conditions—but we will say, to Nissan's credit, that it's difficult to keep restrained and not take advantage of the powertrain's potential.
