I bought this 2015 Nissan Juke SL as a replacement for my 2012 JUKE SL that was totaled in an accident (not of my making) on 2/15/2017. It has taken this long to find the close replacement car, and even though it doesn't have awd, as my 2012 JUKE SL did, in NC it is not as necessary as it was in CO at 8600 ft elevation. I think Nissan has made a big mistake in discontinuing this model car and that they just did a poor job of marketing it plus having named it badly. This car is so much fun to drive and has good acceleration with the turbo along with fantastic fuel economy. I always considered it to be "my porche 911" wanna be (poor girl's porche) and it never disappointed. I drove it from mountains of CO to mountains (albeit smaller mountains) of NC (~ 1500 miles) with my adult son, my Newfi (110lbs) and my terrier mix rescue plus car full of literal baggage) very comfortably. I love, love, love this car and have owned many cars, including BMW, AUDI, GMC, FORD (trucks and Mustang), FIAT (spider and sedan a million years ago, when it was Fiat), but none are as much fun and as economical to drive as my turbo Juke SL. They really needed to have called it something else - works for me because my last name is FUCHS, so it was Fuchs' JUKE or the FUCHS JUKE. But really, for the population at large, it was the wrong name for a car model.
Great!

I purchased a brand new Juke SV in 2015. It had lots of goodies that made it fun, however, 31 average miles to the gallon city, ability to be in 2WD, 4WD, and AWD, and really fun colors, made it even sweeter. I was recently in a rollover accident, and my poor baby gave her life for me. Safety is top notch.I walked away with only bumps and bruises! No problems with it ever at just under 40,000 miles. WHY did Nissan stop making it? It was quirky, fun, different, so fun to drive, easy handling, and really had pep when you needed without being in sport mode. Having a dickens of a time finding a replacement vehicle. I am updating this review one year after my accident. I still miss that vehicle. If Nissan ever brings it back, I will buy one. This is now my second update. I purchased a VW Beetle, and while fun, just can't compare. Now searching for a used Juke with low mileage. Realized that Juke is still made in Europe! Wish it was here.

I kid you not, I've been in two fender benders since owning this car (one in front, one in back), and both times the other car's fender has crumpled like a soda can, and I've sustained no more damage than a few paint scratches.
Good

I bought my 2017 Juke SV new after a head on collision at 75 mph with a deer took out my 2014 Model. The safety features worked exactly as designed. I was actually able to drive the car the remaining 15 miles home. I loved both of these cars. They were incredibly fun to drive. Great acceleration due to the Turbo, very good gas mileage and handled like a much more expensive sports car. They didn't have a ton of storage but this wasn't an issue for me since I used the car for a daily 60 mile round trip to work. I never had any mechanical problems with either Juke, I always kept up with maintenance and used synthetic oil . Unfortunately a young driver tried to pass me on the right while I was turning right at a relatively low speed and totaled my 2017 as well. I'm really disappointed that they discontinued this underrated gem.
