Nissan Juke 2020 review - new compact SUV

[@felipaopl]

Great review. Went to a Nissan dealer to have a proper look at the Ti today. Quite like it, but stock is an issue at the moment due to COVID and the next delivery from the UK scheduled for September only (got this info from 2 dealers, not sure if 100% trustable info or not).

[@chasingcars]

Gosh, that’s disappointing but not surprising given how bad the UK has been hit.

[@dawnmason2782]

The new Nissan juke are really lovely. They look great drive like a dream ❤

[@rrex]

I think Nissan raised the budget on hiring designers this time 😂.

[@chasingcars]

Lol, true.

[@davisrobin42]

I own a juke and I absolutely love it and hoping to trade and get another

[@guysolomon7904]

Damn it... I actually quite like it 😂 although interior still lags behind newer Mazda's imo

[@chasingcars]

Yeah, it’s a big leap forward but the CX-30 cabin is nicer - but the Mazda is more expensive.

[@jamiep61]

Guy Solomon The New Mazda MX-30 Electric SUV will arrive In Australia 🇦🇺 next year

[@lukelawrence6007]

Man the last juke was hideous this one is ugly but better looking

[@chasingcars]

All about that improvement, hey.

[@rogan70]

You didn’t mention anything about the different driving modes - echo, standard and sport? How did these change the handling of the car?

[@JamalKhan-hf7um]

I love only nissan juke great 👍 ❤

[@markbiggart1265]

The Ti does look great in that Red though

[@chasingcars]

Agreed. Lovely colour!

Congrats on reaching 50k subscribers!

[@chasingcars]

Thanks, John! Big milestone.

[@53glowe]

Good solid review Tom. A question though...is this a 6 or 7sp DCT? Nissan's Australian web site states it is 7sp😐 Just thought I'd mention it to you.

[@chasingcars]

It's seven-speed - my mistake.

[@gary162]

Hey Tom, great review! As a fleet owner, more than 50% of my cars are Nissan. I was however, at 5’11, unable to get into the rear of the old model.Seriously! So no Jokes on the fleet. I watched and waited to see you try to wind your 6’ into the back seat but was disappointed. How did you get in thru the rear door? Crawl? Or is the access much improved?

[@chasingcars]

Hi Gary. I can't remember doing any crazy clambering, so the door aperture must have been OK. As always, though, better to try it out for yourself!

[@gary162]

Thanks Tom, I appreciate your professional approach to vehicle testing. Entertaining but systematic and concise, I use good testers like you for a perspective on cars I may be considering for the fleet. With respect to the back seat accessibility of the Juke, I will check it next time i am at the dealer,

[@richardzedman1160]

went and looked at one today They are very good looking car and the inside is great

[@chasingcars]

Good to hear.

[@nadeemraza3410]

Salam I m from Pakistan 🇵🇰 I really like this suv outclass look But sir u tell more about engin power 1.3 or 1.5 I can't understand this No problem 😊 ur review is good 👍

[@jamesoneill5810]

Great car reviews Tom keep up the great work james from Scotland

[@chasingcars]

Thanks, James!

[@jamiep61]

I agree about having a Leather Steering Wheel

[@chasingcars]

Good to hear I'm not going crazy.

[@YTuberosity]

You don't mention that the boot floor is not adjustable so you get a big hump when you fold the seats down. Interestingly in Europe/UK they get an adjustable floor so you can hide the parcel tray.

[@frankopanklaric]

I got mine 4 weeks ago after 15 years of driving a clio. Upgrade in every sense of the word.

[@michaelhall1521]

There are actually 2 shopping bag hooks in the boot mate, and its a 7 speed DCT, good review otherwise.

[@ashalim79]

Awesome review as always! What's the drive like compared to the T-Cross?

[@chasingcars]

Similar, but with slightly better ride quality, I reckon. Also, Nissan’s engine is quieter.

[@ashalim79]

@@chasingcars I was half expecting you to go the other way! oh and 50k subscribers! Congrats

[@JamalKhan-hf7um]

Really I love this nissan juke 1.5 petrol my dream 😍 ♥

[@RJC6]

Good review Tom! I wonder how does it compare to a Toyota CH-R... and how do those Bose speakers sound in the headrest...

[@IJm3]

Please don't use fog lights on clear days 🙃

[@leonted4290]

Awesome review as always

[@chasingcars]

Thanks again!

[@jameswebster4506]

Will they ever learn / missed opportunity/ rear vents a must ! not enough power ! SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[@chasingcars]

Yeah, cars of this price really shouldn't be coming to Australia without rear vents.

[@marthaprimavera3044]

How much for a loaded one does it have a sunroof is optional in how much would it totally be to get 1 or least 1

[@chasingcars]

About $40k driveawway for a Juke Ti here in Australia - no sunroof available, though!

[@jamiep61]

Great Video Review. A popular choice In the UK as well

[@chasingcars]

Thanks!

[@JimboJones99]

Fuji Sunset Red or Mazda Soul Crystal Red ? ...

[@chasingcars]

They’re very similar!

[@nizm0man]

Hopefully this is a good seller for Nissan.

[@chasingcars]

Yes, hopefully buyers will reward higher quality (like this Juke) rather than their cruddier attempts (current X-Trail).

[@jkkchow74]

Great review. Any bad aspects? Also this over the cx3 or CHR?

[@chasingcars]

This is a good car, but the main bad aspects are the ones I pointed out, namely: 1. Plastic steering wheel, even on the second tier ST Plus that is $34k driveaway. That’s crazy. 2. No rear air vents. 3. The 19” wheels allow some sharp edges into the cabin. I’d go a C-HR hybrid over this.

[@jkkchow74]

Great keep it up. Prob best car review channel in aus/nz (I’m based in nz). Australasia version of Matt. Lol stay safe!

[@felipaopl]

Chasing Cars A shame that the C-HR's interior is light years behind the Juke's.

[@gregandkaruna6674]

Tried it today here in NZ. Great to drive and quiet, but that is only positive! That engine is so misleading the dual cluch makes it seem sporty but after the take off then the real power disappears fast! At cruising speed if you floor it then so much hesitation! And that dual cluch is terrible! The price is also ridiculous $38k for the ST-L then a huge jump to $44k for the Ti and even that model lacks Propilot! Kia Seltos beats this in every way! As does the Kona including price! Looking forward to the new Toyota Yaris Cross hybrid with same power output yet on paper uses half the fuel! And it has full TSS 2.0 standard on all trim levels!

[@markbiggart1265]

Every variant should have leather wheel that’s ridiculous. Even my base Polo has leather wheel and gear knob. Bad move Nissan

[@chasingcars]

Yeah. If an $18k DA Polo Trendline can have a leather wheel, a $34k DA Juke ST Plus can have a leather wheel.

[@dominikmaric4195]

First

[@chasingcars]

Dominik quick on the keys tonight.

[@user-jc8dy2sl7k]

Awesome review - ain’t buying that bulky cheap treat! The interior is a joke lol

[@chasingcars]

OK!

[@avaliacarros7739]

Correction: Nissan Puke ha ha ha

[@chasingcars]

OMG
