Nissan's electric Juke EV debuts with 'disruptive' style [Images]
Nissan calls it a “disruptive” new style. The all-electric Nissan Juke EV looks nothing like the gas-powered crossover and more...
electrek.coHere’s the latest on the Nissan Juke EV.
- The third-generation Juke is now fully electric and slated to go on sale in spring 2027, with production in the UK (Sunderland) for Europe. This marks a shift from petrol/hybrid to an EV-only lineup for the Juke.[3][7][9]
- Key highlights teased by manufacturers and press: bold, disruptive exterior design, CMF-EV platform underpinning the Juke EV, and promises of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) capability via Nissan’s Energy Share system to help reduce home energy costs.[4][7][3]
- Range and performance details have been gradually released; early reports cite a substantial electric range (high-300s miles) and efficient packaging given the Juke’s compact footprint, with production starting at Sunderland in the near term ahead of the spring 2027 market launch.[7][3][4]
- Sightings of the prototype have occurred, indicating a design evolution that preserves the Juke’s distinctive character while embracing a modern EV silhouette and tech suite.[5][7]
- For context, Nissan has indicated a phased electrification path across its small-SUV lineup, with the Juke EV following the electrified Qashqai and LEAF family, and it’s positioned as a key European EV entry in 2027.[3][5]
Illustration: imagine a compact crossover with sharp angles and a bold front end, riding on the CMF-EV platform, ready to power a home during peak demand thanks to V2G integration.
