This unusual little vehicle with odd lines and a high ground clearance is available with either FWD or AWD. It’s as much at ease in the city as it is on the highway. The Juke is equipped with a 188-hp 1.6L 4-cylinder engine and either a 6-speed manual transmission or CVT. And if you think its body is different, wait until you see the dashboard! The high ground clearance allows going off-road. Light off-road, of course!
