YouTube - 2011 NISSAN JUKE REVIEW VIDEO, SPECS & 0-60 TEST
The interior looks really good actually, I like their lil display they got goin on. btw tho.. Nav on Nissan Cars are horrible. I had an Altima 3.5 with it an it would always try to get me lost an drivin in circles lol..

I like how he said "if you counted, I got to 60 in... not that long" lol it took like 6-7 seconds which isnt that bad for a crossover actually... funny tho lol

Performance

The Juke has got some juice. Behind the Juke's big smile and below its bugged-out eyes beats a turbocharged 1.6-liter inline-4 that cranks out a healthy 188 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. A continuously variable transmission (CVT) with manual-shift capability is standard in the price-leader Juke S, the trim level that we tested.

Give the command to hop to it and after a slight hesitation out of the blocks the Juke moves out strongly, and so strongly that the steering wheel wriggles a bit with torque steer as the car lunges ahead. The energetic little four-cylinder feels more like a larger, non-turbocharged engine, and we mean that in a good way. There's power across a broad range of rpm and not much whine from the turbo as it spools up (though a few of us like to hear more of it). At the test track the 2011 Nissan Juke sprinted to 60 mph in just 7.3 seconds and ran down the quarter-mile in 15.5 seconds — downright quick for a small crossover.

The combination of the inline-4 and the CVT gearbox is expectedly smooth, the first example of an engine this small that seems happy to work with a CVT. Part of the reason might be the CVT's ability to step down into alternate ratios for a quick burst of acceleration. The CVT also features manual-shift capability, which lets you hold a gear (sorry, "ratio") in order to keep the power on tap.

The Juke's braking performance was about average. The pedal provided a linear action with a pleasingly firm feel. At the test track the Juke came to a halt from 60 mph in 123 feet, a respectable number. For comparison a Cooper Clubman we tested posted a stopping distance of only 112 feet, while a Scion xB did the task in 124 feet.

As impressed as we were with the Juke's performance, we were disappointed by its fuel economy. Though official EPA estimates were not yet available as of this test, Nissan estimates 27 city and 32 highway mpg. We averaged just about 22 mpg. Granted, we had the Juke for just one weekend and it spent a fair amount of time in freeway traffic.

Cut the Juke loose on a twisty road and it is in its element, happily bounding from corner to corner. The well-weighted steering and buttoned-down suspension provide crisp response and sure tracking as you turn into a corner, while the big tires hang in there as you push it harder. Not bad from a car that looks like a frog. Running the Juke through the slalom, our track-testing jockey enthused that the Nissan was willing to be chucked between the cones.

Slammed, I think it looks cool! Now Im not one to black out anything, but I'd get one in Black, and black out the 3rd deck headlights so it only has... I mean finally has the correct number of lights. Then at night it'd be like a little added bonus to be like...

"what mr juke? You have more light for me?"

"Oh yeah buddy I do. Shazam!"

"Wow! I didnt even see them there during the day!"

"I know... I juked you out on that one"

Together we'd laugh....



You know...... itd go something like that.

The Cube is(was?) the best selling car in Japan. I guess that makes it a failure?

If you said it was ugly, I would agree though.
