The Juke from Nissan is one of the most striking looking cars on the road and, as a crossover that combines both supermini and SUV it is unique in many more ways than its looks. Its low purchase price combined with some great features even at the entry level specification make it a great value car to buy. Good fuel economy also means that you won’t need to part with too much money when you’re at the pump either.
Design
It’s impossible to write any kind of Nissan Juke review without mentioning the car’s striking design. It does tend to polarise opinion and you’ll either love it or hate it, but going by the number of Jukes Nissan has sold it would seem that the majority of people are won over by it wide wheelbase and chunky exterior. The interior, too, is packed full of unique design features. Once you’ve seen it you will never forget it.
Ride And Handling
Driving the Juke is like getting behind the wheel of a go-kart. It offers nippy acceleration and decent handling. The firm suspension also adds to the pleasure and the benefit of driving the Juke. There is a 1.6 litre direct injection turbo petrol engine and this offers an impressive 188bhp which will get you from 0 to 62 mph in 8 seconds.
Economy And Cost
The entry level Juke is a surprisingly inexpensive option, costing less than £14,000 brand new. This includes various features like air conditioning and alloy wheels as standard while the next step up, costing an additional £1,000 or thereabouts also gives climate control and reverse parking cameras as well as a suite of other tools, features, and additions that make it great value. At the pump, the petrol engine offers nearly 50mpg while the diesel reaches 60mpg.
Overall Verdict
The Nissan Juke is a striking looking car both inside and out, provides great handling that makes it fun to drive, and comes in a number of models and engine sizes to ensure that you can have the features and the specification that you require. All in all the Juke is a definite success for Nissan.
