I don't understand all the hate on how it looks. Sure, it's unconventional but I think it's tasteful and it's nice to have cars out there that don't look so "samey".
People hate this but I loved having it as my first car. It's dirt cheap, quick enough to not feel slow, agile thanks to the AWD and torque vectoring, and is reliable (I did 40,000 miles in 9 months, only issue I had was a puncture), and it's just fun to drive.
I've no idea if this chap is a professional car reviewer, but I have to say this is one of the best car reviews I've ever seen from America (I'm in the UK). Maybe a little too much mechanical info in the first couple of minutes, given that the vast majority of Juke buyers will have their car serviced by a dealership or garage anyway. I have a Juke 1.6 Nismo and as he says, it's really good fun to throw around corners on weekend trips into the country. Surprisingly little body roll in corners for what is a fairly tall vehicle. It sort of "sling-shots" you round bends on twisty roads. I can get from 0 to 60 in just over 7 seconds and in over 2,000 miles so far, it's averaged 42mpg. Not bad considering that's involved a lot of stop/start motoring to the shops etc. A very good review and well put together. Cheers.
Staffie Blue 7 seconds? That is quite slow. The slowest car I’ve ever driven is the Polo GTI Plus. It has a 2 litre turbocharged engine, 187 bhp. 0-60 is 6.6 seconds
I know this is an old post, but I have a 2015 juke sv awd and absolutely love this little beast! Will have stillen catback and injen short ram installed next tuesday. I'm not a modder by any means, just looking for more efficiency and a little more growl!
Test drove one today which is black and has a spoiler on the top with orange trim. I love the look. The styling is ahead of its time to many. If you go back 30 or 40 years many would say many cars today are ugly. Its fun to drive and does have some nice pick up when put your foot on the gas. But its fuel efficient, simple with not too many electronics inside that can go bad and be expensive to repair.
dont hate me for what im about to say, but i drove this car a couple weeks ago and it was incredibly fun, i know it looks like shit, but if you actually try it, i can guarantee you're going to love it.
Bryan Pranata If you drove one you'd understand. The CVT makes the engine hold constant RPM, and the little 4cyl sounds like it is straining all of the time as a result. The interior is all hard plastic, and not very comfortable. Plus they are just weird and ugly looking. When he says "it is fun to drive" I am not sure what his definition of "fun" is. The only thing "fun" about the rental car I had was that I got to give it back after a few days.
ace lopez So, you don’t like cars. Full size suvs like the macan S is like more uv than suv. Where’s the sporty part? A real sporty and utilitarian car is a hot hatch. I’d never get a full sized suv like that.
Turbo or supercharged liter-size engines should produce well over 100Hp. Look at those Japanese bikes such as Kawasaki H2. They produce more than double of that. Go figure...
All cars look the same, right ? Well, finally a really cool car again. Like a Mini or VW Beetle, or would you call those cars "beautiful" ? No they are in fact "ugly" too. Yet, everybody wants one . Just like the Juke. The Juke has sold over 500.000 ! Does it look like a frog ? Yes! Does it look like a Buggy ? Yes! Does it look like a toycar ? Yes!...... THAT's why people like it and buy it.
@@Mr.Gundam7 I already have one, my friend. The 1.2 Acenta Premium to be exact. Performance is pretty good for what it is, although it's nowhere near the level of the Skoda 1.4 TSI I had before. I will say one thing though: on the motorway, it's an absolute star; with cruise control on and the engine spinning at a leisurely 2,400 rpm at 70 mph, it's a quiet and relaxing drive. As I said, it's no sports car, but it has plenty of redeeming qualities. Just wish the fuel consumption were better.
I like this car, I enjoy the looks, especially the profile and rear end - granted the front is funky. I think that most folks don't like the looks because it ventures outside the norm. As far as driving it - it is quick and fun to drive - it has the height of an SUV but drives like a car. It is very basic and plastic on the inside, but it's fine. What concerns me is the lack of space in the rear seat but I think I can deal with that. I am contemplating purchasing one. I have found an amazing deal on one and would be paying "used car price" for a new car, perhaps it's because of the lack of demand. My question and concern is about the type of fuel it uses. Someone who owns one, (and loves it), told me he uses regular gas and it is fine. Some have said that they use mid-grade and it's fine, while others say that you MUST use premium. Some have said that the engine adjusts to the fuel type used but that doesn't sound correct to me. With gas prices rising, it could be a determining factor if I buy this car. Please respond with advice.
Lol everyone online says they're so ugly, yet they sell 35-40k of them a year in the US. For being somewhat impractical and cramped inside you might think it's fairly niche, especially with that exterior, yet they sell about 10, 000 more than combined sales of the FRS\BRZ. I wonder if that mpg, refinement, insurance cost, and the concept of a mini-SUV make the difference in a consumer's mind. Cause if you have to fold the backseats down to get any real cargo space, how much more practical is it really than a FRZ. Perhaps even minor advantages in practically (mostly cost related, like mpg) greatly trump any aesthetic ones...
YIC granted it isn't the most obvious comparison and some thinking out of the box is necessary. I made the comparison mostly because of the aesthetic factor. One is generally regarded as hideous, the other as just about as good looking as you can get for the price. I'm wondering why the ugly car wins in the sales #'s when it doesn't have any real solid advantages. Why are we in an era where lifting the car 5-10 inches has to be part of the winning formula?
I own a 2013 SL-AWD. I. Fucking. Adore. This car. Say what you will about the cars looks, but it drives so damn well and it's so much fun you don't care. I had it for two years and it survived 2 Alaskan winters so I can tell you from experience this thing drives in snow and ice so fucking easy. If you can get past the looks, you will not be disappointed.
I disagree about the rear space.I took my wife, grown daughter, and 6 year old granddaughter from Nashville to Disneyworld, and they said it was surprisingly comfortable. Is it Licoln Town Car spacious, and comfortable, no. I know, because I own a 03 Town car, but driving the whole distance, I was comfortable as well. We also was able to load six stuffed animals, and our luggage. Then was it a little cramped, yes, but we still had fun it it. As for fun. It is one of the most fun cars I've ever driven. It is quicker than you think. Turn the A.C. off, put it in manual. Put one foot on the brake, and one on the gas. Get the r.p.m.'s up a little, and at a light you can tree just about anyone. Love our , I mean my wife's Juke.
I like the style of the juke. It doesn't take itself seriously. Look at the corolla or the civic. They look too intense. Take themselves too seriously. Cars aren't fun anymore.
Love the Juke, learned to drive and passed my practical test in one then bought one a few days later for my first car, tho mines a right side(uk) drive 6 gear manual diesel, unlike the continuous automatic shown here. but the same points stand, very fun car to drive and its every good on fuel.
I loved my Juke. I had a 2011, and I'm very surprised you were able to get such good fuel economy. Unfortunately, the CVT went out last year, so I replaced it with a 2016 WRX. It is in every way better than my Juke. It even gets better fuel economy than my 2011 Juke, which was an unexpected, but very much welcomed surprise. I wonder if something change in 2015 in order to make the fuel economy better.
Five years late but I mean come on man, the juke is so godamn sexy bitches be dropping panties trying to climb in. (In all actuality I have gotten compliments on it twice. Which isn't alot, but still.
I honestly like this car. When I get mine I want to put a roof rack, some lights, slightly larger tires (+5 inch diameter) and a grey and orange paint job.
I appreciate your reviews as they are far more technical than any other automotive reviews I have seen. One question though. Why does the CVT "shift" gears? Wouldn't it be best to leave the engine RPM steady at peak torque for acceleration and peak efficiency for fuel economy? For example leave the engine at 4500 RPM (estimate for peak torque) if you floor it at speed and just slide the CVT ratio down. Or on the open road why not just leave the engine at 1700 RPM (estimate for peak efficiency) and adjust the manifold pressure / power via turbo?
I had to smile myself when your smile popped up and you had to admit it is a fun ride. I can't figure out the headlights since there are 3 sets. yeah I know one set is fog. I drive a 2010 Jeep Wrangler (road noise) and a 2007 VW Beetle (road noise) and I am betting this one will seem super quiet to me. Great review
+davidrobert2007 They do not own Nissan. It's a partnership and a damn good one but neither company wants any form of merger or otherwise. Granted Renault does hold 43% stake in Nissan as of 2013, that is still a far cry from ownership...Gonna need to educate before throwing these things around like that.
What a funny little car. Looks like a Bulldog or frog. Just love this. In fact, I will buy one for my wife. But I will get the 1.2 liter turbocharged Renault engine.
I will be trying out this car one more time. This one should last me for 7 years. The car is compact and I really enjoyed the last one. i should use the settings more often next time. Nice car.
You are crazy! The CVT transmission is the most dangerous transmission on the planet. You floor the pedal and literally wait 3 seconds before the car decides to move from a stand still while traffic is attempting to broad side you merging onto a major highway. My wife has the automatic 2011 model and can't wait to get rid of it. Should have gotten a manual.
Why would anybody be jealous of a juke lol. I’ve got an S3 with 296 brake horsepower and a Q2 with 187bhp. Nobody would be jealous of you lol. I’d rather be shot in the head rather than seen in a Nissan Juke. Ugly, slow, and overpriced. 15 grand for that thing. If I were to look for very cheap cars, I wouldn’t buy that, I’d choose the polo or a Dacia or a Skoda over it.
Engineering Explained could you please setup a camera, maybe one you can hold, to record the dash/infotainment areas and whatnot. We can barely see what you're talking about usually.
Great review! The main disappointing thing for me is the lack of storage space. They tried to make the back end look more hip, but ends up making the trunk space less practical for daily use. I'd rather go with a hatchback Fit or something.
***** I agree! It's a fun ride but I was a bit disappointed by the lack of space for the rear passengers and how small the trunk is. And great fuel economy too. Pros and cons with everything!
It's too bad you were not able to review a nismo RS model with 6psd. After having owned both, the RS is much more fun to own. Yet have not driven it in snow yet. The AWD regular juke handles great in snow.
One problem is the rubberband transmission, I personally can't stand it and exempt from that they (Nissan) have a ton of problems with the CVT an ordinary 6 speed automatic and I would consider buying one.
Could it fit 1. A 65cm * 65 cm * 40 cm cabinet in the back plus a couple of 120 cm * 40 cm * 30cm cases? I play in a band and need to carry stage lighting. Thanks.
do you think you will ever get your hands on a Jaguar, xj's xf's? i know they are a bit "spendy", but i do think seeing that level of quality, which is not too far off from Lexus and Audi would be really nice to see... as well as Chrysler, 200's and 300's, and even Porsche, but only like the Boxster though. Thanks! love the videos!
You usually say if your legs aren't touching the interior panels thats a positive, but some people like to rest their legs against the interior and for a good reason
Looking back on the juke, i dont think its as ugly as i remember. people cant tell me specific details on why it looks bad. i think maybe the headlight positions throw people off. which i like the 370z headlights, not so fond of the mid level ones.
Wow, that engine bay looks scary to work on. I didn't know it got a small engine with a turbo. Odd design on the exterior but even the beautiful cars are called ugly by people vice versa.
I'm a learner driver and own a juke (as my mum bought it for me) its a manual and im 17. If i put it in sports mode, will i still be able to drive it or will it be harder?
my 2012 sv juke with few modification gets 35-36 mpg all the time (high way 70 : local 30) If i try to get more that is possible too. My highest mpg number with the juke was 40 as well. It all depends on how you drive. My G37 gets 32 highway mpg and ppl don't believe it.
Hello, I was just reading is it true the 2015 Nissan Juke SV 6 M/T trim model takes only premium gas? Is that true, I would understand for the Nismo but not the base SV model. Any response from anyone who owns one would be great, thanks.
Always been a fan of the Juke. And always will.
Ryan Lincoln I hope that’s sarcasm.
You are not alone ^_^ I love my Juke and wouldn't trade it for anythin'.
What switch should it be when driving on normal weather?
Same

@luke montgomery who cares about that light. Nissan juke r have 600 horsepower 100% can kill you car easy
The looks are its selling point for me
This car doesn’t deserve to be hated on, the Kicks is
I guess Im pretty randomly asking but do anyone know of a good site to watch newly released movies online ?
Everyone says the Juke is ugly. I think it has a little bit of a badass look in the face.
It's about as scary as a teddy bear.

you really don't know? If you push the start engine button once without pushing the brake pedal on the car will show you every single sign light up.
Stratton Yatron bgggffggg
Why didn't you review the manual? I hear it's much more fun to drive
I think i like this car...thanks for the presentation, well done...
Great review! The main disappointing thing for me is the lack of storage space. They tried to make the back end look more hip, but ends up making the trunk space less practical for daily use. I'd rather go with a hatchback Fit or something.
***** I agree! It's a fun ride but I was a bit disappointed by the lack of space for the rear passengers and how small the trunk is. And great fuel economy too. Pros and cons with everything!
It's too bad you were not able to review a nismo RS model with 6psd. After having owned both, the RS is much more fun to own. Yet have not driven it in snow yet. The AWD regular juke handles great in snow.
What iş the fuel consuption? İ font know changing the accelator there are r n d and 1 2 but no easytronic
do you think its good for a 6"3 guy? @ 270 lbs
yes but you going to use it as a 2 door hatchback with lot a trunk space.
The new 2015 model has a cooled low pressure EGR system, the first in a mass production gasoline engine.
One problem is the rubberband transmission, I personally can't stand it and exempt from that they (Nissan) have a ton of problems with the CVT an ordinary 6 speed automatic and I would consider buying one.
Got a 2017 sv awd and love it just take care of the trans and itll take care of you
great review brother very informative
Could it fit 1. A 65cm * 65 cm * 40 cm cabinet in the back plus a couple of 120 cm * 40 cm * 30cm cases? I play in a band and need to carry stage lighting. Thanks.
If your TH-cam career ever failed (let's hope not🤞🤞🤞) you would make an amazing car salesman.
I think it looks nice!
Well, tastes differ don't they? ^^
Those tumor headlights though..
ppl who like juke are the real deal
I like the back door handles
do you think you will ever get your hands on a Jaguar, xj's xf's? i know they are a bit "spendy", but i do think seeing that level of quality, which is not too far off from Lexus and Audi would be really nice to see... as well as Chrysler, 200's and 300's, and even Porsche, but only like the Boxster though. Thanks! love the videos!
You usually say if your legs aren't touching the interior panels thats a positive, but some people like to rest their legs against the interior and for a good reason
excellent job. very thorough. thank you!!!
And 188hp 240nm of torque with fwd manual transmission
I have sentra sr turbo with the same engine
Looking back on the juke, i dont think its as ugly as i remember. people cant tell me specific details on why it looks bad. i think maybe the headlight positions throw people off. which i like the 370z headlights, not so fond of the mid level ones.
Hot...and so is the car.
in indonesia we cant choose the gear manually
even we got the same xtronic cvt
i don't understand why they remove that feature for indonesia market
I hope I am getting a vehicle like this I didn't like it at first but it's awesome so far
honestly can say you sir done good review i liked it a lot well done
wd love to see Clarkson, Hammond and May read the juke fan boy comments here.
Wow, that engine bay looks scary to work on. I didn't know it got a small engine with a turbo. Odd design on the exterior but even the beautiful cars are called ugly by people vice versa.
Hi Engineering Explained , why people hate cars with CVT vs conventional Torque Converter transmission?
I'm a learner driver and own a juke (as my mum bought it for me) its a manual and im 17. If i put it in sports mode, will i still be able to drive it or will it be harder?
If it's rated for 32 Mpg on the highway, how could you possibly get 44.9 mpg on those hills? That computer seems really suspect.
Walter Black Yes, I suspect it's reading high, but probably within 10%. Definitely possible to get 40 mpg with it.
a turbo helps gas mpg if you're not always in boost.
my old 2011 altima was rated at 32mpg hwy and I could get 30-45mpg depending on how fast I drove. I routinely averaged 35 mpg on avg.
my 2012 sv juke with few modification gets 35-36 mpg all the time (high way 70 : local 30) If i try to get more that is possible too. My highest mpg number with the juke was 40 as well. It all depends on how you drive. My G37 gets 32 highway mpg and ppl don't believe it.
Man, how did they fit the GT-R engine in the Juke-R, pretty impressive for that small engine bay
Thanks for such an informative video. Very helpful.
Prefer the Nissan cube over this, would own none though. Though the cube was pretty fast
Seems like the mpg is seriously underrated. I'd like to see you compare this to the Nismo version just to see how different it is.
Great video. Fantastic presentation. Can I ask how tall you are? Curious as I'm 6"5'. Wondering if I'd fit.
+The Rambling Hippo 6'1"
I noticed you didn't use "butt ugly" or "clown car-like" when describing the exterior. We want a complete review! :)
Jerrod Lindquist I try to stay objective. :)
Engineering Explained I hear you :). Keep up the good work!
Well have you seen the bose personal edition with the same engine
44 mpg? No way, on my AWD cvt Juke I get around 22 mph on the highway. Highway MPG is my biggest gripe with this car.
Hello, I was just reading is it true the 2015 Nissan Juke SV 6 M/T trim model takes only premium gas? Is that true, I would understand for the Nismo but not the base SV model. Any response from anyone who owns one would be great, thanks.
the 1.6 turbo always took premium
Unless u have the non turbo version that's sold in some countries.
wrong. this car is premium gas recommended. Not required or must. I do use 93 octane on my little turbo but that's your choice.
