Nissan Juke (2011 - 2017) Reviews, Pricing & Specs

The features of the car are great for the price. It has adequate power, though the type of transmission (CVT) reduces the effectiveness of that power somewhat. The interior was of decent quality, though even with leather its clearly a cheaper economy vehicle. The steering and controls are somewhat dull, but not bad. I personally love the exterior styling, though I recognize its controversial and polarizing. Its a shame that Nissan only offered the manual transmission with front-wheel drive models. Id compare this with the Honda Civic, Hyundai Elantra & Elantra GT, Subaru Imprezza, etc. Its a great car for someone who wants a smaller stylish vehicle with all-wheel drive and more horsepower than almost anything else in its lower price range. Just dont expect a distinctively sporty experience unless you splurge for the Nismo and Nismo RS trim levelsFeb 19, 2023

The Juke is one of the cutest SUVs on the market. The ride is very comfortable, stops and starts are easy and it corners well. That said, I was disappointed when I tried to give it some juice going uphill. It doesnt have nearly the power you would expect for going up a relatively long, yet not so steep hill. For the mileage it purports (which isnt fantastic), its not worth the trade-off.May 09, 2021

We were in the market for a Subaru and while not being stoked on the looks of this car at first decided to take it for a test drive. We were sold ever since, never even looked at another Subaru. We found it way more fun to drive and it just felt more sporty. Plus we average more MPG's than our Subaru driving friends. Very impressed with this little car, wish they made a longer version with a bigger back seat!Dec 15, 2013
