  • The Juke is a pretty ‘marmite car’ at best of times, I think this Nismo RS version could be even more polarising!

    You make it sound like it's just a styling exercise, It's not, the Nismo RS has a stiffened body shell (this is why you will never see a Nismo RS with a sunroof) bigger wheels, bigger uprated brakes, uprated suspension, uprated engine components (Forged pistons/rods etc) Electronic LSD and MUCH more power, I've owned mine for 7 years since new and have only had an issue with torque steer at very low speeds, really can't understand how you could describe it as boring ?? I've had V8 Jags and V6 Alfas and the Juke Nismo RS is so much more fun to drive

    The Nissan Juke Nismo RS is beautiful and a car that walks quite a lot with a unique design.

    I've enjoyed one for 6 years and it doesn't torque steer with the traction control switched off. Plus it handles way better especially with good rubber

    The nismo rs has a lsd, and mine doesn’t torque steer at all. Absolutely beautiful to drive n on a stage 1 remap got 5.1 seconds to 60

    Quite an easy way of reducing tourque steer In rs's is by turning off traction control, it drastically reduces the tourque steer, and there's not much tire slippage just normal driving

    I just got a 2017 nismo rs and I love this little car. My last 2 cars was a mini and an mr2, and I like this one the best.

    Had one for around a year. Stage 1 remapped. Was fun to drive, however it did cost a fair bit on juice to run. Have to say on the torque steering, it caught me out once and the car was nearly sideways before turning into it. Really had to pander around corners. Miss the car, but just wasn't practical enough especially with fuel costs currently.

    Good and honest review. Owned one for 14 months, was disappointing overall.

  • @Dad-Gad

    Turn traction control OFF to reduce torque steer .

    Great vid as always Joe. A very marmite car as you said. Love have a go in one but not sure I'd leave my BMW for one. 😉😂

    You have officially warded me off from a fleeting midnight interest I had in this car. Thank you, sire

    The nismo rs actually has a limited slip differential

  • @eugenegusha774

    I would like a juke nismo rs.

    Plus the steering wheel get tacky really quick

  • @issachunt4743
    @issachunt4743 Год назад

    Handling is like a boat with the standard nismo RS suspension, the car doesn’t give you any confidence to corner quickly, engine runs out of steam high in the rev range, seating position is horrible, choose carefully before purchasing

  • @issachunt4743
    @issachunt4743 Год назад

    If you’re looking to buy one, test drive first, driving position - performance- build quality is crap, handling is ropey, torque steer is horrific, honestly these are not great

    Your car is not a nismo rs. Nismo rs having Recado racing seat and 215 not 210 bhp. It has bigger brake pad... poor review...
