Nissan Juke/Reanaultsport Clio

Similarities:

- Both are built on the same platform (Nissan B Platform)

- Same engine 1.6L (MR16DDT). Juke (188hp/177tq), Clio (197hp/177tq)

Can you name any “step-siblings” to your current car?

Rules: Same platform, same engine (or very similar), different brand.

The only cars the Prelude ever shared a platform/engine family with were other Hondas, none of which were ever sold as Acuras.

My 2015 VW Passat TSI Limited is based on the VW PQ46 platform, which is shared with the European market Škoda Superb. The Superb is also available with the same EA888 1.8 TSI engine detuned to only 160 hp against the Passat’s 174 hp.

I’ve been in both, so I can say that the Škoda is...Superb.

Yeah, C1 / BK / P1. All depends on which brand was building the car.
