Nissan is proving that crossovers don’t have to be a paint-by-numbers segment devoid of creativity and thrills. Their Juke is a fun and exciting compact machine, and the 2016 S model we’re here to present today will wow you with its capability.
Here’s the scoop on this intriguing machine: It is packed out with a wonderful engine that is sure to please. The 1.6L four-cylinder is wily and spirited, offering up 188 horses and 177-lb.-ft. of torque. Payload is a generous 1,021 pounds, too. In all, you’re getting a car that is fast down straightaways and quick through the corners; a pure joy to drive on the roads of Renton and Tacoma.
The 2016 Nissan Juke S has plenty more going for it, as well. It’s filled with safety and convenience features. For instance, a rearview camera makes backing up out of a parking spot a breeze, and the side-view mirrors are powered to enable swift blind spot adjustments. Further, the headlamps are a projector halogen variant with LED signature accent lights—they look great and keep visibility high.
