I think it is looking good. Once again pricing will be key , and the previous model was expensive for what it was compared to rivals and even Nissan's own Qashqai.

Nissan Juke
Almost a decade after it set the bar for compact crossovers through its distinctive personality and emphasis on fun, the next-generation Nissan JUKE arrives to reinvent the segment once again. Fun to drive as ever, the all-new Nissan JUKE delivers new levels of performance and technology, within a striking yet roomier dynamic crossover body.
With almost one million on the road in Europe, the Nissan JUKE has resonated with European customers thanks to its stand-out design. The next-generation JUKE - which was unveiled in London, Paris, Milan, Barcelona and Cologne - has been created to appeal to European drivers, who value design, technology and performance, in addition to practicality, in the crossover segment.
"Nissan JUKE is back with its unique identity, even more character, exciting performance and advanced technology that responds to driver needs," said Ponz Pandikuthira, Nissan Europe vice president, product planning. "The new design and exciting driving experience will appeal to the growing number of customers opting for compact crossovers. The JUKE has grown up, while still retaining the fun-to-drive qualities that have always made it stand out."

The Nissan Juke Is Back In Europe With Toned-Down Looks
The Nissan Juke, killed in the U.S. beginning with the 2018 model year, is back in the European market with new looks and less of that bug-from-an-alien-planet vibe we all knew and loved. It’ll also come with plenty of technology options and the choice of a six-speed manual, along with a base price of around $21,000.
It’s kind of like Juke-meets-our-dystopian-future, where personality is slowly pried out of our world and every piece of technology has thin, slanted lights that look like they could vaporize anyone ahead with a single laser beam. Cool!
Nissan announced the new Juke on Tuesday, with the new looks and a pricing breakdown in British pounds. There was no mention of the U.S. market, as expected—Nissan traded the Juke for the Kicks over here, and the former is not expected to be back—but Jalopnik reached out to Nissan to ask if there may be a slim hope of its return to our shores.

New Nissan Juke: larger second-generation model finally revealed!
The covers have finally come off the new Nissan Juke, with the second-generation version of the Japanese firm’s crossover growing in size and adopting fresh technology.
Set to make its official debut at the Frankfurt motor show, the new Juke offers what Nissan describes as “new levels of performance and technology”, within a “striking yet roomier” crossover body.
The automaker says the new Juke boasts larger dimensions, fresh 19-inch alloy wheels and a “coupé-style floating roof design”. Equipped in Europe with LED technology as standard, the latest Juke retains its circular headlamps but adds a new Y-shaped signature to the lenses.
The Juke now measures 4 210 mm long (up 85 mm), 1 800 mm wide (up 35 mm) and 1 595 mm tall (up 25 mm), while also weighing some 23 kg less on average, according to the firm. Inside, Nissan claims rear knee-room has been increased by 58 mm and rear head-room by some 11 mm. Boot capacity, meanwhile, is now a claimed 422 litres (up some 20 percent).
In Europe, power comes from a turbocharged 1,0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine offering 86 kW and available with either a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission (the latter with paddle shifters).

All-new Nissan Juke retains bold look, but grows up a bit
Nissan made a bold design statement with the original Juke, so there was no need to reinvent the wheel when it came time for a redesign. What Nissan’s stylists seem to have come up with is a vehicle that’s still striking enough to turn heads, but with a more grown up look and feel. It’s as if they added a dash or two of Qashqai to the original recipe.
As with its predecessor, the second-generation Juke is aimed primarily at the European market, and the new one aims to retain the fun factor of the original, but in a more mature package. To that end, it is larger yet 23kg lighter than before, having shifted onto Nissan’s CMF-B platform. Boot capacity increases by 20 percent to 422 litres, while those in the back will enjoy 1.1cm more head room and 5.8cm of extra knee space.
Interior designers have gone for a more upscale feel, with additional soft-touch materials on the dashboard, door trim and foot wells as well as optional Alcantara seat upholstery.
Buyers also have multiple colour options for the interior upholstery as well as the exterior body and roof, while customisable bumpers and side sills are also on the menu, along with alloy wheels measuring up to 19 inches in diameter.
Powering the Juke is Nissan’s latest 1-litre DIG-T three-cylinder turbopetrol engine, which produces 86kW of power. It can be mated to either a six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch automated transmission with steering-mounted shift paddles. As before, it comes with a driving mode selector that allows drivers to choose between Sport, Standard and Eco modes.
At this stage there is no word on whether Nissan will again offer a high-performance 1.6-litre turbopetrol version.

Radical style for Nissan Juke
Nissan’s Juke 2.0 is still a daring design
This new version of the car which established Nissan’s presence in the compact crossover market rides on Renault’s CMF-B platform, which it shares with the current Renault Clio and Captur.
Although the styling isn’t quite as outrageous as Nissan’s original Juke, it remains a daringly designed vehicle with the same dual headlight design and a Y-shaped grille. Nissan’s design goal was to create a compact crossover which was roomier inside and retained the distinct presence customers have come to expect from Juke. To that end the Juke has grown by 85mm nose-to-tail, 35mm across and stands 25mm taller. Despite the increase in size, it is 23kg lighter.
Those stretched dimensions yield a cabin architecture which creates a passenger environment that offers 58mm more rear knee room and 11mm greater headroom. Luggage capacity has swelled to 422-litres, which is an improvement of nearly 20% over the first-generation Juke. The Juke features an array of advanced technological features. These include electronically assisted steering, acceleration and braking. There is intelligent autonomous braking too, with pedestrian and cyclist detection.

Nissan mocks Frankfurt show with rural ‘Francfort’ stand
It is not unusual for a number of carmakers to skip an international motor show these days, and this year’s Frankfurt show was no exception, with many companies deciding that it simply wasn’t an opportune moment to justify the huge investment required.
However, instead of just remaining respectfully quiet on the matter, Nissan decided to have some fun with its absence, and set about creating its own ‘Francfort’ show stand, somewhere in the middle of nowhere, to show off its second-generation Juke. The new compact SUV was revealed at the beginning of September, and it certainly would have been the brand’s top showpiece had it actually invested in a Frankfurt presence.
But it turns out 'Francfort' was cheaper... Or did Nissan have bigger ambitions here?
“The New Nissan Juke took everyone by surprise by investing in Francfurt, a place in the middle of the French countryside, by creating the first car show dedicated to a single car,” Nissan said on its French Twitter page with tongue firmly in cheek.
Incidentally, as far as we can tell there is no such place as Francfurt in France.

Why show off your car at a prestigious motor show when you can just have your own extravaganza in the countryside?

Not enough of the sexy from the new Micra and still too much of the eye-gouging atrocity of the old jook. But definitely a step in the right direction.

Nissan Juke 2019 review
Should I buy one?
When the original Juke arrived it had no more than a couple of competitors – the charming Skoda Yeti being one. Today there are almost two dozen, but none are much more compelling now than the competition was a decade ago.
That’s why it’s still tempting to steer people towards a conventional supermini or small family car, because it’ll be more efficient and nicer to drive. But let’s assume you’re not going to buy one of those, because a crossover’s raised seating position is useful for child seats or dodgy hips, and the moderate extra ground clearance handy for speed humps or dodgy roads. Given that, and prices from £17,400 to £25,400, the Juke warrants as much attention as anything else.
I still think there’s a genuine opportunity to be had for a manufacturer who makes a genuinely compelling alternative, which is either lots of fun or supremely refined. Nissan hasn’t nailed either of those, but it’s respectable enough, and puts right the complaints about how cramped and crashy the previous one was. As it ever was, it’s challenging on the outside. Now harmless on the inside.
