In the modern culture-Facebook-Twitter-throwback world we have come to expect bold and risky designs from car companies. One that is supports that very thing is Nissan’s new Juke. No, it is not a “Juke-Box” per-se, but rather a new hip crossover with edgy styling.

You may remember the Nissan Juke making its debut at the New York Auto Show this year gaining attention from all angles of the automotive journalist community.

Also, don’t forget that you can get discounted new car pricing with a free quote through qualified local dealer partners.


The new Nissan Juke features Nissan’s 1.6-liter direct injected four-cylinder turbo, a first for North America. The 180+ horsepower turbo 1.6-liter will be available with a torque vectoring all-wheel-drive system making this a little pocket rocket for your extracurricular activities.

Starting at a price of just under $20,000 ($19,995), expect this to be a hot item when it reaches your nearest Nissan dealership in October.

From the looks of it, does it Jive with you? Do you like the bold statement Nissan is making lately especially with the introduction of the 2011 Juke?
