Deal of the Day: Lease a Nissan Juke from £177 per month
The Nissan Juke is a well-equipped small SUV with funky looks, and you could lease one for a keen price with our deals...
The Nissan Juke consistently ranks in the top-selling cars here in the UK, which is why you might already be considering owning one if you’re in the market for a new small SUV.
But what does it owe its popularity to? Well, its quirky looks might not be to everyone’s tastes, but they seem to have garnered a strong fanbase, plus it offers plenty of kit – and let’s not forget its built-in-Britain status. So, if that all sounds good to you, then you might be pleased to know that you could put a new Juke on your driveway for as little as £177 per month.
To do that, you’ll need to opt for a 48-month contract with an annual mileage limit of 6000 miles, and an initial payment of £2119.99. The annual 6000 mile restriction isn’t a huge allowance, so you’ll have to be careful to avoid excess mileage charges.
If you regularly cover more miles, you could opt for a more common 36-month, 10,000-mile agreement with six months initial rental (£1325.04), which will cost £220.84 per month.

You can have your Juke with either pure petrol or hybrid power, and our Deal of the Day comes with the former, featuring a 1.0-litre turbocharged engine with 112bhp. With that juice, it took 11.7sec to sprint to 60mph in our tests, which is pretty modest, but equivalent engines in rivals like the Skoda Kamiq and Volkswagen T-Roc are only marginally stronger.
Despite its upright stance, the Juke is pleasantly refined through twists and turns, and it has a reasonable amount of grip at moderate speeds. That being said, it does become a little unsettled on the motorway. Our Deal of the Day comes with the Juke’s six-speed manual gearbox, which is easy to use and not as jerky as the automatic option.
Where the Juke really stands out is with its interior. It’s easy to get comfy inside, thanks to the abundance of adjustability in the steering wheel and driver’s seat. All versions come with physical controls for the air conditioning, which are much easier to operate on the move than if you had to delve into the infotainment touchscreen.
Speaking of the infotainment system, it comes equipped with DAB radio, Bluetooth, sat-nav, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay as standard, plus our Deal of the Day has wireless phone charging.
When it comes to interior quality, the Juke sits at the top end of its class, featuring a variety of plush materials that can only be beaten by premium-badged rivals like the Audi Q2.
Where the 2008 really stands out is with its interior quality. Indeed, it’s furnished with plenty of plush-feeling materials and feels mostly built to last, with only some scratchier plastics on the doors. The Lexus LBX feels noticeably classier inside though.
Being a small SUV, the Juke offers ample space for tall passengers up front, but head room is slightly compromised in the back. The boot, on the other hand, is almost as big as the larger Nissan Qashqai’s. We managed to fit six carry-on suitcases below the load cover, which is impressive by small SUV standards.
Our Deal of the Day comes in our favourite N-Connecta trim, which comes equipped with climate control, automatic windscreen wipers, ambient lighting, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror and rear-privacy glass on top of the standard cruise control and 17in alloy wheels.
