The Nissan Juke has always been a trailblazer in the world of urban crossovers. Since its debut in 2010, it has captivated

drivers with its distinctive design, sporty handling, and tech-forward approach. Now, with its mid-life refresh for 2024, the Juke raises the bar once again. From the return of an iconic yellow paint option to cutting-edge connectivity and the debut of an N-Sport trim, the updated Juke promises to deliver more style, innovation, and versatility than ever before.

Built in the UK at Nissan’s Sunderland Plant, the Juke has been a cornerstone of British automotive production. As it enters this exciting new phase, it’s clear that the Juke isn’t just keeping pace with the competition—it’s leading the way. Let’s dive into what makes the facelifted Nissan Juke a standout choice for urban drivers in 2024.

One of the most eye-catching updates to the 2024 Nissan Juke is the return of a yellow exterior paint option. First introduced with the original Juke, the yellow color quickly became a fan favourite. Now, it’s back with a modern twist—a slightly paler shade that feels fresh, vibrant, and undeniably stylish.

This isn’t just about bringing back a beloved hue; it’s about making a statement. Pair the yellow exterior with the new N-Sport trim, and you’ve got a car that commands attention. This new trim elevates the Juke’s design with contrasting black details, including the roof, wheels, mirrors, grille, and pillars. The result is a striking, high-contrast look that perfectly balances boldness and sophistication.

Matthew Weaver, Vice President of Nissan Design Europe, shared his excitement about the updated design:
Juke’s bold design is its calling card. Bringing back yellow with a fresh twist adds even more personality—it’s like the car’s got an extra ‘bang’!

Yellow isn’t the only new addition to the Juke’s color palette. The 2024 lineup also includes an enhanced Pearl White with a greater pearlescent effect and a deeper, richer Pearl Black that uses glass flakes for extra sparkle. These updates ensure that there’s a colour to suit every driver’s taste.

Step inside the refreshed Nissan Juke, and you’ll be greeted by a redesigned interior that prioritizes comfort, convenience, and connectivity. The centrepiece is a new 12.3-inch touchscreen, now angled 8° toward the driver for easier access. This high-resolution display is not only larger but also more intuitive, with customizable widgets that let drivers tailor their home screen to their preferences—just like a smartphone.

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now standard, making it effortless to connect your devices on the go. Voice recognition has also been upgraded, with natural language processing that can handle pauses, hesitations, and varied phrasing. Whether you’re setting a destination or choosing a playlist, the system responds more intelligently than ever.

Another major interior upgrade is the 12.3-inch digital TFT instrument cluster, available from the N-Connecta trim upwards. This customizable display offers two layout options: a classic dual-dial view or an enhanced layout with a three-dimensional perspective. Both layouts allow drivers to view critical information like navigation, fuel economy, and audio settings at a glance.

In today’s tech-savvy world, keeping devices charged is essential. The Juke has you covered with wireless charging, USB-A, and USB-C ports for both front and rear passengers. A redesigned 6.6-litre glovebox, an updated armrest with integrated storage, and an electric handbrake ensure that every inch of the cabin is optimised for convenience.

The introduction of the N-Sport trim adds a new layer of athleticism and sophistication to the Juke lineup. Inside, the N-Sport features bold yellow accents that echo the exterior paint, including a boomerang-shaped highlight around the central infotainment screen. The seats are equally striking, with recycled Alcantara® inserts and yellow stitching that add a touch of luxury to the sporty aesthetic.

The N-Sport isn’t just about looks; it’s also designed for comfort and performance. The seats are quilted for extra support, while new materials like Kira Melange and high-quality PVC ensure durability and style.

For drivers looking to reduce their carbon footprint without compromising performance, the Juke Hybrid is an excellent choice. This electrified powertrain combines a 1.2kWh battery with an electric motor and a specially designed petrol engine. The result? A 25% increase in power compared to the standard petrol engine and a significant reduction in fuel consumption—up to 37% in urban driving.

With a net output of 143PS and smooth, responsive acceleration, the Juke Hybrid delivers a driving experience that’s both efficient and exhilarating.

For those who prefer traditional combustion engines, the 1.0-litre DIG-T petrol engine remains a staple of the Juke lineup. Compact, lightweight, and turbocharged, this engine produces 114PS and up to 200Nm of torque with the over-torque function. Paired with either a 6-speed manual or a sporty 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, the petrol-powered Juke offers a dynamic, engaging drive.

Safety has always been a priority for Nissan, and the 2024 Juke takes it to the next level with new and improved driver assistance technologies. Standard features now include Intelligent Driver Alertness, which monitors for signs of fatigue and provides timely warnings.

The Lane Keep Assist system – available on higher trims – helps drivers stay centred on the road by gently correcting the car’s trajectory if it veers too close to lane markings. Meanwhile, the Around-View Monitor and a high-resolution rearview camera make parking and reversing easier and safer than ever.

The refreshed Nissan Juke is proudly built at Nissan’s Sunderland Plant, where over 1.3 million units have been produced since 2010. This facility, which employs thousands of skilled workers, is a testament to Nissan’s commitment to the UK automotive industry.

In addition to supporting local jobs, the Sunderland Plant is taking steps to reduce its environmental impact. The Juke Hybrid, for example, aligns with Nissan’s broader goal of achieving carbon neutrality across its operations and vehicle lifecycle by 2050.

The Nissan Juke has always been a design icon, and its latest updates only enhance its appeal. From the return of bold yellow paint to the introduction of cutting-edge interior tech, the Juke continues to set the standard for urban crossovers.

Whether you’re navigating city streets, embarking on a weekend getaway, or commuting to work, the Juke offers the versatility and practicality you need. Its compact size makes it ideal for tight urban spaces, while its advanced safety features provide peace of mind on longer journeys.

As the automotive industry transitions to a more sustainable future, the Juke Hybrid represents a key step forward. With reduced emissions, improved fuel efficiency, and a commitment to eco-friendly production, the Juke is helping drivers make greener choices without sacrificing style or performance.

The 2024 Nissan Juke is more than just a mid-life refresh—it’s a bold statement about the future of urban crossovers. With its updated design, tech-savvy interior, and efficient powertrain options, the Juke is ready to take on the challenges of modern driving while staying true to its roots as a stylish, dynamic, and versatile vehicle.

Whether you’re drawn to the head-turning yellow exterior, the cutting-edge connectivity features, or the environmentally friendly hybrid powertrain, the new Juke has something for everyone. As it continues to roll off the production line at Nissan’s Sunderland Plant, this British-built icon is poised to remain a favourite among drivers for years to come.
