It’s been almost a decade since the Nissan Juke revealed itself to the world, and a second-generation model is set to make its debut on September 3. The Japanese carmaker has released a teaser of the new crossover, and it looks to be just as funky as before.
Just like the original, the dual-tier lighting setup has been retained for the new car, although it’s now presented in a sleeker fashion. The swooping upper cluster has a much more slender shape compared to the outgoing model, and it meets neatly with the edges of the V-motion grille rather than being isolated at the top.
Further down, the round lights features a prominent three-pointed element within them, as an evolution of the same design cue we’re familiar with. The previous wide-width intake has also been shrunk down to fit within the “V” of the grille.
Nissan isn’t providing much information beyond a date and this teaser image, but spyshots of the upcoming model reveal a sloping roofline coupled to broad shoulders. Door handles mounted close to the C-pillars were also seen on the development car, as are taillights that resemble those on the latest March/Micra.
The new Juke is said to ride on the CMF-B platform, which is also used for the Renault Captur, and the engine line-up should include a mix of small-capacity turbocharged petrol and diesel options, as well as a 1.6 litre petrol-electric hybrid powertrain.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Pity ETCM cannot bring this car in. ETCM tries so hard to bring the Qashai (Europe’s best selling SUV) and the Juke but everytime MITI reject their application
Why? Very simple. If the Qashai comes in, nobody will buy DRB’s Honda HRV at all. Even the Proton X70 also will find it hard to make sales.
Pity ETCM. The only non GLC linked company always facing hardships
Mate, you’re drunk
I’d like to know whatcha smoking? That’s some strong shits there.
