TTAC is reporting that 2 sources close to Nissan’s future product plans say that the Juke is dead after this model year to be replaced with this:
the Kicks, which was given the green light last year for Latin American markets. So they are going to replace one controversial CUV with another small weirdly designed one with a stupid name. All the while we languish on with the old ass 370Z with no rumor of replacement. But thats another story though....But anyway, you guys can read about it !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Was it true the Juke was actually fun to drive? I never could bring myself to drive one because of how it looked.

1. Good riddance to the hideous thing. I like Nissan’s design language the Maxima and Murano use, but the Juke is just vomit inducing.
2. Didn’t they just introduce the kinda-Juke-sized-but-actually-useful-and-not-ugly Rouge Sport? I feel like the Kicks and that would share waaaaay too much market space.

After riding shotgun in Canuck’s Juke, I can tell you that it’s a perfectly okay place to be. It seemed to handle and accelerate just fine.

Well it looks better than the Juke. That’s about all I can say, but you could say that about most cars and it would be accurate.

This thing is winning most of the small CUV comparatives here. See it as a HRV/Ecosport competitor.

There’s a Nissan dealer on route 66 in New Jersey. I guess you could say that one can get their Kicks on Route 66.

I don’t think anyone have a problem with it being a crossover...

Well for the most part it is just a Juke without that stupid face. I mean even the overall shape and some details are the same.

Damn that’s boring. Also note the appearance like the Nissan coupe concept everyone wanted.

Yea the Rouge Sport was released which is weird because it is close in size to the Juke.

Seemed like that was the case. But if you’re buying a Juke, you’re probably going for style over substance.

It wasn’t an abduction. Besides, everyone knows how to properly roll out of a moving vehicle, right?

To be fair, every car is a compromise in one way or another, or else everyone would be buying Accords.

I didn’t dislike the juke. It was a little odd looking but it was atleast interesting and it came in some pretty okay colors.
But would one own one? That’s a totally different story

That’s probably why you don’t hate it.

As someone whose mom is seriously considerating a Kicks, it’s nice. I like the interior the most (especially since it’s available in tan, sand and brown in the sea of black interiors of Brazil), but the rear is kinda ugly. As Citroen said, it is winning most of the comparisons with the HR-V, Ecosport, Tracker and Renegade

Bigger. Kicks is 4,29m (168.9in) vs 4,12m (164.2in) of the Juke. Wheelbase is also longer in the Kicks

The Kicks is cool and good. Hopefully the weird Juke guy doesn’t find out about it.

The Qashqai/Kumquat/Rogue Sport is in between the Juke and the Rogue.

Richard Hammond is throwing a party. At its center lies a Juke atop a flaming funeral pyre.

I looked the way they looked until I had one as a rental car. It was utter garbage. I can’t even think of a redeeming quality besides it did break down.

Can’t say I’m surprised. Nissan continues to go for Toyota levels of bland while having GM levels of reliability.

I’m not going to lie, I’m going to be sad when the Juke goes. There aren’t many cars on the road with “F-U I do what I want!” styling.
Then again, I drive a Rogue and I lose it all the time in parking lots, so that may or may not influence my affinity for the Juke.
