The future Nissan Juke will be battery electric but will not stop the current combustion engine Juke
- The Nissan Juke , a B-segment SUV, was first launched in 2010. It was renewed in 2019 and will be renewed again in 2026, representing a life cycle of seven years instead of nine years for the previous version. Why the Juke's life cycle has been reduced? Probably because it is a normal life cycle whereas the previous life cycle was considered excessively long, but above all because the current Juke will continue its career with its internal combustion and hybrid engines alongside the new Juke, which will only be available with a fully electric motor.
- More and more carmakers are opting for the solution of offering two different body styles for the same model, depending on whether it is equipped with a combustion engine (or hybrid) or a fully electric motor. This is the case for the Porsche Cayenne, the Mercedes GLC, the BMW X3, and even the Renault Megane, which was available in 2023-2024 in two different body styles.
- The new Nissan Juke, which is expected to be launched in the fall of 2026, will take up the bold style of previous Jukes, but more exaggerated, and will be based on the CMF-EV platform of the Renault Megane E-Tech, Nissan Leaf and Nissan Ariya. It will be produced at the Sunderland plant (United Kingdom) alongside the current Nissan Qashqai, Nissan Leaf and Nissan Juke. Inovev is forecasting 25,000 sales of the new electric Juke in 2030, after 20,000 in 2029 and 15,000 in 2028.
- Regarding its electric powertrain, it could be equipped with a 120 hp or 150 hp motor, whereas the Megane E-Tech offers a choice of 130 hp or 218 hp. Its battery would offer a capacity of 40 kWh or 60 kWh, like the Renault Megane E-Tech.
