Return of the juke?

UNKNOWN_370 · 08-03-2019, 08:13 AM

Here's a rendering of the new juke. Slightly less quirky but still juke like in the rendering pic.
Wondering if...

It will get more power?
Will it be longer?
Will they consider the IDX as a car version of the juke? That would be funner!!

This is the car that will save Nissan. When I first saw the original Juke, I thought I was looking at the world's ugliest car, but more and more of them kept popping up.

It's like when Galileo knew the Earth wasn't the center of the solar system, and no one believed him, or when Marty McFly stunned everyone in 1955 with Johnny B Good.

I just watched Back to the future.

I totally agree. The drive was fun. The interior design was fun. And it was ugly but had loads of personality. Like some of the chics that dudes who buy cars to attract women screw. Lol. Theres a car for everyone.

So reading this article I was so excited!!! In a way!! But in another was I was TOTALLY let down BEYOND BELIEF!!! Of course!!! We're talking about Nissan ova. heuh!!!

The jukes PROS.

Wider
13% stiffer body rigidity
6% lighter
Longer wheelbase.
NO CVT... WE GET A DUAL CLUTCH... FINALLY!!!
Grip Z and GTR esque styling.

CON...

We get a 1Ltr 115hp engine!!!
Like what the fvckin fvck? So ummm... what is it with Nissan? Are they hellbent on taking a shyt on anything semi-worth driving? What's the effin motive ova here!!! The kicks has more power.

So that means the juke LOST 73HP????
I kept reading hoping I'd hear about the optional engine? Nope!!!

Idiot company if I ever seen one? I think it's time to just give up on Nissan building anything meaningful or being competitive. Somebody lied to them and said they will sell cars NOT being cmpetitive... so you realize how much your customers hate cvt cuz hyundai been selling the shyt out of dual clutches but your solution is to give HALF THE ENGINE OF A HYUNDAI at hyundai prices? Lol. All they hadda do was squeeze 200 measly horses out the juke reboot? They couldn't even do that?

The role has reversed. In fast n furious Tokyo drift Han said. "You think I'll let you roll in a hyundai?"

If we remade Tokyo Drift today? I think he'd say? Think I'd let you roll in a Nissan? Geez?
The Juke would be Bow Wow's hulk scion equivalent.

200HP in a juke was too much to ask? Losers!!!

RANT OVER!!

Ugh, 115 hp?! Laughable! My wife had a juke when we first met, and it was already slow enough that it did once almost kill us while we waited for the turbo to spool.

My experience was the juke was quick enough. Especially in AWD.

0-60 in 7.3 seconds.
Quarter mile in 15.7 seconds
.89g's of grip.

For a $19,000 starting price? I think it was better and faster than most cars at the same price and handled great. The CVT was the weak point.

If it had a 200hp engine with all the advancements of the new chassis. I could easily see a juke getting to 60 in 6.7 seconds with the right engine. But ummm... Nissan!!

So now you get 73hp less and it will cost 10% more. Losers!!!

The next gen Juke is savior of Nissan. Slow is the new fast.

ZeeingAround · 08-20-2019, 10:55 AM

JUKE: A cvt and an ugly face. F that. The only way you get me in one of those is last call. After all the prius and HHRs have left the parking lot.

Lol... That's what it seems like.
Well it seems Nissan knows better than to bring that punkmobile to the U.S.A. They're selling it in Europe where those pastry eating slow pokes can drive around in their vagina mobiles while drinking an orangina.

Go Nissan!!

ImportConvert · 09-06-2019, 08:37 AM

Maybe the engine is stoopid over-built and it's a wink-wink nudge-nudge just to crank the boost? Maybe turbo swap? Maybe the rest of the drivetrain can handle plenty of power and this is kindof an easter-egg sortof like the 2JZ drivetrains?

Maybe that's just reaching...but so is a 115hp engine, ROFL!

UNKNOWN_370 · 09-20-2019, 09:13 PM

Nissan is putting that whole 117hp on track with a Nismo.

Just like society, cars are becoming shallow. Nice on the outside, with nothing worth having in the heart. This is the new juke.

JLarson · 10-14-2019, 09:59 AM

Kill it with fire!

NISMO IX · 10-14-2019, 09:05 PM

I had a 2014 Juke NISMO AWD/CVT for almost 5 years. It wasn't that bad, I just wanted AWD with the 6M and traded it for a 2017 Focus RS a few months ago.
