Nissan Juke Nismo Review - Barrel of Laughs or a Bit of a Joke?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

My sister bought a new daily - rather than her usual choice of MINI or Abarth, she has gone for this - a Juke Nismo! I'm not convinced the car deserves the Nismo badging, but I wanted to find out if it's actually any good at all.

    I’ve always liked the juke and I was pleased when they made the nismo, more so the RS. After owning one for over a year now I can say it still puts a smile on my face. These are seriously underestimated, usually by people who haven’t driven them. And they always surprise people at the lights and even around a B road. It’s a shame that 218bhp is considered low power these day, but it’s only because we are spoilt with tyre shredding hyper hatches. These days anything with less than 300bhp is pretty much written off, but this car is quick and round the B roads it does get the pulse racing. However, there are a few things I’d change/was disappointed with. The mpg is bad, even with a 6 gear manual the revs sit way to high at motorway speeds. And couple this with a tiny fuel tank it feels like you’re forever filling it up. Also the gearing is very short, which not only lengthens the 0-60 time but ruins the mpg. You are always changing gear when driving casually. But all in all I love it. It’s an under dog and who doesn’t like an under dog

    You are the first car reviewer that has said anything nice about a Juke. My wife has a 1.5 Diesel Tekna and although I didn't want her to get one I've come around to really liking it. She wanted the raised ride height to make it easier to get in and out, improved visabilty and because the road where we live get flooded often. She loves the spec, 360°/reversing camera, heated leather seats, 4 electric windows, DAB radio, Bluetooth for phone, sat nav, 50pmg, plenty of power for her. There are some very steep hills that it goes up without any problems. During lockdown when the motorways were empty I drove it at 115 mph, it was stable and unfazed. All round an excellent car that has been problem free. I would recommend one without hesitation.

    I own a 3 year old nismo rs and have to say there are many upgrades.Bigger front and rear discs ,lsd,bigger boot.Inearly sold it the other weekend but bailed as I couldn't honestly part with it.Ive just had her mot and not a thing wrong.Mpg round town in normal.mode is about 31mpg and long journey 41mpg in eco mode.Actually achieved 46mpg the other week not sure how.Untill you actually drive it and own one you never understand how easy it is to live with day in day out.Im so happy with mine I've looked at buying another for my partner who also loves it.Even my next door neighbour has bought one in silver but black is the best.The seats are the most comfortable I've ever sat in and on long journeys I never get a bad back and on a motorway but don't get the recaro seats they are so hard to get in and out of compared to the heated nismo seats.It will Cruise happily all day long quite happily on the motorway very steady and surefooted.I took a gamble on this car and have to be honest I've never regretted it.Dont knock the rs version untill you try one.Its not everyone's cup of tea but still a brilliant car for the money.Cheap to tax cheap to insure cheap to service and very reliable.Only issues are the petrol tank is too small at 42litres with a range of 270miles that's my only gripe.Enjoy what is a fantastic little car. If you want to do an rs version review, your more then welcome to borrow mine anytime jay👍👍

    a friend got one recently after her Subaru was totaled... she let me check it out and my only complain from my short test drive was getting in and out over the base bolsters - i contribute it to the distance they set in from the door sill, their height, and the fact i'm not very tall, I'm also more accustom falling into to lower cars like exige, miata, and rx7. But aside from that, which would just require a little pratice if it was mine, it was a surprisingly fun car!

I've really enjoyed this video. You've minimized your exhaust/tarmac obsession, and the shot at 11:53 is quite beautiful. This is a perfect example of why I'm so enamoured with your work. Much kudos. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

The juke in ECO mode brings in around 40+mp with a light foot, is super comfortable and fun to drive and does about 0-60 in almost 7 seconds. Viewin angles are brilliant, i have the Xtronic i think its called, automatic and the car is a dream to drive.

(My SR20det swaped S13 will always be number 1) I love the juke but if I could change 3 things it would be to make the 6 speed manual available in an AWD, a bigger fuel tank, and a Sunroof option on the Nismo edition.... other than that it's a great car.... as long as you get the 6 speed manual and not the cvt automatic.... I test drove the regular Nismo and the Nismo RS and I can tell you the RS is much better! I happily dishes out the extra few thousand for the RS version.

However to really enjoy it you have to get the 6 speed manual, the automatic CVT is garbage. The Juke could only be approved in 2 ways. 1) Make the 6 speed manual available in a AWD. 2) Should of came with an SR20DET engine.

    The biggest issue with Nissan (2006 onwards) is Renault - 2011 onwards is when the rot really set in, it really shows in the wiring - all white cables with very low core count - Nissans biggest flop was the E12 note what was dropped after 3 and a bit years, new prices dropped after 6 months by up to £9k - the pulsar is a another £20k-32K car no one wanted and is exclusive as a C6 as no one purchased them, at the end of the day Nissans cars are a Renaults in a Japanese suit. - - - - Vauxhall will go the same way now Peugeot has taken over, we already have the Vauxhall Berlingo Corsa Partner

    Just some opinions from a long time owner.(experiences may differ lol) The fuel economy is all over the board in reviews so lets put some clarity to it. I get 30-42 Mpg because I mostly drive 45mph in 6th gear for very long stretches, on the highway I get 25mpg at 70mph. The drive modes are basically useless to me so I just run sport mode for the heightened throttle response and nimble steering. Small mods make a huge difference with this car. A better breathing intake, better exhaust, maybe a better intercooler(stock placement is terrible). Final point, absolutely no problem in snow for me. I live in a rural area so I had to make my own paths in the morning, just be easy on the throttle.

Great fun to drive in sport mode down B roads, you can really lean on the chassis, one of the quickest car I've had point to point as its so light and nimble, and that's coming from Focus ST and Astra VXR. I eventually chipped the Juke to around Nismo RS power, much more fun then, boost would come in earlier. Great car, still miss mine, now drive a Mazda 3 MPS.

    They aren't great on fuel 😂 we usually get around 25mpg around the doors, and around the same on the motorway, it depends how you drive but you have to properly granny them to get somewhat ok milage

    The Juke is basically a Micra on stilts. It's deceptively small. Looks like it's a medium sized hatchback but it's really small inside. I drove my mates wife's Juke a few times, it was well equipped and nice enough inside, certainly not judging it or anyone who likes theirs, but for me, it's such a horrible car to drive, horrible clutch, horrible gear box, gutless as hell. Tiny boot too.

    NISSAN has been one of my favorite badges since the ‘70’s. Looks like a great little grocery getter to me. 29.5 mpg is pretty good for a tall vehicle. I’d expect to have to keep a 1.6L turbo wound up a bit in a vehicle that large. I’m not a car-snob.....I enjoy a base Nissan Sentra 1.8L, NA, 5-speed

    My uncle has a 1.5 manual iirc and it got ariudm 25mpg average. Which is shocking. not sure if your UK based or US. If you're in thd US, you need to recalculate that mpg ad 29mpg in UK is about 23mpg. Statside. At least their fuel is cheap

    200bhp from a 1.6l is impressive enough. Had the same from my Astra GTC after a remap. Sadly these engines arnt that strong and wont last forever i fear. I dont like these modern small engine turbos i think they are underwhelming and cheap. Great review again James keep up the great work.

    A silly car. What seems to offer more cons than pros. There is better crossovers, better estates, and even better coupes, and even better all round SUVs. Also my uncle had one (non nismo) and its mpg was horrific, for the poor non performance. Though I'll admit it looks half decent in this spec. But not enough to even tempt me.

    Juke, the most impractical, practical car i have ever driven. Hideous to look at and totally useless as an everyday car. Tiny interior says it all. A Nissan Note is much bigger inside with much more useful features and uses less road space. The Juke is for folk who want to look cool but haven't got a clue. If you need a practical car, just buy a practical car, if you want a sports car just buy a sports car, not something that is terrible at both and shows the world you're just trying too hard.
