Geneva 2014: Nissan Juke

by Derek Kreindler

The big news for the Nissan Juke is what you can’t see: according to them, Nissan claims that the cargo area is 40 percent larger on front-wheel drive models, now up to 12.5 feet. World markets also get a new 1.2L turbo 4-cylinder engine. I’m just hoping they’ll finally give us an all-wheel drive 6MT version. I’m glad it’s still weird.

    I honestly think this is just one of those vehicles that can, at times, look really good or really bad. I used to work with a guy that had one of these in black and it had black wheels...looked pretty good when it was cleaned up. It's like the new Jeep Cherokee, in most colors and in the Trailhawk trim, it looks pretty decent, but make it a cashmere or silver sport without roof rails and terrible wheels and I don't think it could look worse!

    6MT is a torque vectoring awd no go with the Juke. The fwd larger boot is just a lower drawer thanks to the lack of awd mechanism. Controversial, cramped, winter weather beater with the all and seasonal tire switch.

  • Mikey For 36.4 years i punched the clock at GM Canada.. For the last 15.5 years (frozen at 2008 rates) my GM pension shows up in my account. I flirted with Fords for a couple of years but these days I'm back to GM vehicles and still qualify for employee price. Speaking as a High School drop out ..GM provided myself and family a middle class lifestyle.. And still does .. Sorry if i don't join in to the ever present TTAC ..GM Bash fest

  • THX1136 A Mr. J. Sangburg, professional manicurist, rust repairer and 3 times survivor is hoping to get in on the bottom level of this magnificent property. He has designs to open a tea shop and used auto parts store in the facility as soon as there is affordable space available. He has stated, for the record, "You ain't seen anything yet and you probably won't." Always one for understatement, Mr. Sangburg hasn't been forthcoming with any more information at this time. You can follow the any further developments @GotItFiguredOut.net.
