NISSAN JUKE N-SPORT DRIVING REVIEW - THE UPDATED PIKACHU

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Nissan Juke receives a facelift, highlighted by the return of the iconic yellow color and the top-tier N-Sport trim. The reviewer praises the updated interior, particularly the new 12.3-inch infotainment system, comfortable seats, and the availability of the Bose sound system with headrest speakers. While material quality in some lower areas is noted as a cost-cutting measure, the overall fit and finish are considered good. The driving experience is a strong point, with commendations for the direct and communicative steering, good visibility, and confident handling, especially in the hybrid model. The hybrid powertrain, though complex, offers a smooth transition between electric and petrol power and achieves a respectable real-world consumption of around 4.8 L/100km. Criticisms include the slightly firm suspension on rough surfaces and the lack of a lighter interior color option, which can make the cabin feel less airy. Despite these minor points, the reviewer concludes that the Juke remains a competent and well-packaged compact urban crossover, with the hybrid N-Sport trim being the recommended choice.
