Pros Distinctive styling Interior quality Good safety tech
Cons Limited engine choice Bumpy on larger wheels Infotainment
The Nissan Juke was a pioneer when it launched nine years ago. It packed the attitude and altitude of a crossover, and out-there styling, all shrunk into a supermini’s length span. It sold like crazy from the start to the end of its life. Here’s the new one. Different in very many ways, but the spirit is supposed to remain.
Pros Distinctive looks, rich interior, undemanding to drive
Cons Hatches ride and handle better
Nissan Juke is more spacious, better equipped, good to drive and well priced. With so many great rivals, it's unlikely the second Juke will become as successful as the first but, particularly in mid-level N-Connecta trim, it's a strong proposition.
Pros Good value Improved interior space Fun to drive
Cons No hybrid yet Noisy manual gearbox Only one engine
