It seems that since Nissan launched their Nissan Juke this week there’s more talk of how this vehicle looks than how it performs.
Nissan have taken a very bold step her in subtly asking the question, would you drive an ugly vehicle?
The Japanese car maker are hoping motorists will look past its exterior and view this crossover for what it is, an affordable (aka cheapish), small vehicle which can just as easily be used on city streets by young urbanites in addition to grown-ups in rural areas.
No real data is out yet except the sales launch in October this year will feature 2x 1.6 litre petrol engines and a 1.5litre diesel unit, with a starting tag somewhere near £13,000.
The Juke will be built in Sunderland for all European markets to replace production of the outgoing Micra.
