Why buy a Juke?Back to top

The Nissan Juke is a stylish and fun car.

Nissan have been known in the past for producing reliable, consistently good cars. But more than anything their recent history has shown that they are not afraid to push the boundaries of what can be done within the realm of car design. The Nissan Juke certainly falls into this category. With the emphasis on being fun and quirky, it has proved to be an instant hit in the crossover class.

Bug-eyed headlights and a wide, rounded bonnet give the Juke a very unique look that continues to the pronounced wheel arches and wing mirrors. While this might put the Juke into a category of car that is likely to appeal to similarly bold and outlandish people, it does provide a breath of fresh air onto the roads. Inside the styling is similar, but with a more refined and relaxed approach than the exterior, it gives the Juke's inside a far calmer and functional feel.

But aside from its looks the Juke offers a comfortable and fun drive. Although it bears closest resemblance to a SUV, the Juke's handling is closer to that of a supermini. The car remains calm and stable through corners and twists, while the Juke Nismo model comes with a few sportier tweaks to give it a bit more speed and heavier steering.

The Juke offers good space and comfort for the driver, but when it comes to passenger and luggage space it is no market leader. With boot space of around 250 litres, it sits very much in an average position in its class, somewhere it finds itself in again with regards to running costs.The 1.5 dCi returns 55mpg and emits 124g/km of CO2, which puts it firmly in the middle of its class. Resale costs are good though, with used Jukes finding high demand. While this doesn't always make them initially affordable, it does mean that very little value is lost on your car at resale.
