The Nissan Juke was one of the pioneers of small urban SUVs with bold looks. It suits anyone who wants a high driving position and standout styling in a city-car size, for town and everyday trips.
Two generations share the market. The first (2010-2019) is easy to spot by its round headlights and very compact boot. It comes with 1.6 and 1.2 DIG-T petrol engines and the 1.5 dCi diesel, with a continuously variable automatic (CVT) on some versions. The second (since 2019) is bigger, with clearly more rear and boot space, and comes with the 1.0 DIG-T petrol engine and, from 2022, as a hybrid.
What to check before buying
- On a first-generation diesel, the Euro standard: a Euro 5 diesel can no longer enter the Brussels LEZ.
- The CVT or automatic gearbox, if fitted: smooth acceleration with no jerks or odd noises on the test drive.
- A Car-Pass less than two months old, verified by QR code, and the number of previous owners.
- The first-generation boot, with what you usually carry: it is small.
