Nissan JukeDIG-T 1.0 [115] TEKNA PLUS DCT AUTOMATIC

The 2021 Nissan Juke Tekna is a stylish and well-equipped compact crossover that continues the Juke’s tradition of bold design and practical performance. Positioned at the top of the trim lineup, the Tekna variant offers a range of premium features and a refined driving experience, making it an appealing choice for urban drivers and small families.

The Juke is renowned for its quirky and eye-catching design, and the 2021 model builds on this with a more mature and aerodynamic look. The signature split-headlight design remains but is now complemented by sleek LED daytime running lights and a sharper V-motion grille. The Tekna trim adds 19-inch alloy wheels and distinctive gloss black accents, enhancing its sporty aesthetic.

At the rear, the boomerang-shaped taillights and coupe-like sloping roofline add to its unique character. Overall, the Juke stands out in the crowded compact crossover market, appealing to buyers who want a car with personality.

Inside, the Tekna trim offers a high-quality cabin with soft-touch materials, leatherette inserts, and a modern design. The sporty D-shaped steering wheel, contrasting stitching, and ambient lighting create a premium feel. The 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with NissanConnect, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto is intuitive and responsive.

The front seats, upholstered in full-leather, are comfortable and supportive, especially on longer journeys. Rear space has improved compared to the previous Juke generation, though taller passengers may find headroom slightly tight due to the sloping roofline. The 422-liter boot is practical for a car of this size, offering enough space for groceries or weekend luggage.

Under the hood, the Juke Tekna features a 1.0-liter turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine delivering 115 horsepower and 200 Nm of torque. Paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT), it provides smooth gear changes and adequate power for daily driving. While the engine is not particularly sporty, it feels lively and responsive in urban environments.

On the road, the Juke offers a comfortable and composed ride, with the Tekna trim benefiting from advanced driving aids like ProPILOT, which includes adaptive cruise control and lane-centering assistance. The light steering and compact dimensions make it easy to maneuver in tight spaces, while the firmer suspension setup ensures minimal body roll during cornering. 

The Tekna trim is packed with advanced tech features, including a premium Bose Personal Plus sound system with speakers integrated into the front headrests, offering an immersive audio experience. The 360-degree camera system and parking sensors make parking in tight spaces a breeze.

The 1.0-liter engine is impressively efficient, achieving a combined fuel economy of around 42-49 mpg, depending on driving conditions. This makes it a cost-effective choice for urban commuters and occasional highway trips.
