Overview

The 2015 Nissan Juke is a subcompact hatchback segment offered in 5 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $21,150. For that price, it mainly competes with the Mazda CX-3, the Toyota C-HR, and the Fiat 500L. Between 5 trims, the Nissan Juke offers 2 powertrains. The base engine is a 1.6L Inline-4 engine capable of making 188 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque. The optional engine is an upgraded 1.6L Inline-4 engine that induces 215 horsepower. Both the engines will be mated to the CVT transmission. 

The Nissan Juke reaches 60 MPH from zero in 7.3 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 7.0 seconds with the 1.6L Inline-4. Depending on the powertrain, the Nissan Juke can manage a combined fuel economy between 28 and 26 MPG. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 9 striking colors the Nissan Juke comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

Even though all three variants seem worthwhile, we recommend the SL trim equipped with the upgraded infotainment system and few more convenience features.
