The arrival of the Juke is reinventing our notion of the compact SUV. It has the look of a Murano, but is much smaller. Its size is more like that of the Suzuki SX-4 and the Kia Soul, and its only engine is a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder. There are front- and all-wheel drive versions available. As for the transmission, there’s either a six-speed manual or Nissan’s traditional CVT.
