2012 Nissan Juke vs 2012 Hyundai Tucson

The Hyundai Tucson is Hyundai’s compact crossover SUV, built on a platform shared with the Kia Sportage. The entry-level GL comes with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. The GLS and Limited come with a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder and the choice of front or all-wheel drive.

The Hyundai Tucson is a stylish and versatile small crossover. The Juke, however, offers its own cutting-edge style and personality, along with advanced features and technologies that the Tucson can’t match.

Key Juke Advantages

• Turbocharged engine with more horsepower and toque
• Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG ™)
• Xtronic CVT (vs. 6-speed automatic trans)
• Available torque vectoring AWD (vs. conventional all-wheel drive)
• Available Nissan Intelligent Key ® with Push Button Ignition
• Available Integrated Control (I-CON) system
• Better estimated fuel economy (1)

Juke enhances the Nissan crossover lineup by providing an option for customers that desire a smaller vehicle that still provides a crossover “feel”. The Nissan Juke is a uniquely styled, high tech and fun to drive vehicle offering performance and eco-conscious attributes.

While the younger generation was thought to be the main demographic for the Nissan Juke, they have found it appeals to all age groups because of its unique expression of style and fun to drive spirit!
