Nissan Juke 2010–2014 dimensions, tows 1,250 kg

Braked towing is 1,250 kg.

Nissan Juke 2010–2014 car dimensions: 4135 mm long, 1765 mm wide and 1565 mm high. Unladen weight is 1,172 kg. Braked towing is 1,250 kg.

The Visia cabin has manual air conditioning as standard in most markets, electric windows front and rear, a CD radio with AUX and four speakers, height-adjustable driver seat and a simple trip computer. Higher grades add automatic climate, cruise control with limiter, Bluetooth, USB and the Nissan Connect 5-inch touchscreen with reversing camera. Parking sensors are dealer-fit accessories. Later facelift Tekna models gain Safety Shield with blind-spot and lane features plus Around View, but these stay off the base Visia. Daily use feels basic yet practical with the tall seating and easy controls.

Boot holds 251 litres seats up with a useful under-floor tray of about 44 litres on 2WD models. The 60/40 split rear seat folds flat to give up to 830 litres, enough for weekend bags or shopping runs without feeling cramped.

Braked towing capacity reaches 1250 kg and unbraked 608 kg on the 1.6 Visia, with payload around 380-430 kg depending on exact engine and options. Stützlast is 75 kg. No heavy-duty cooling or reinforced suspension appears in the specs, so it suits light trailer or bike-rack duties rather than heavy work.

The cabin offers a high driving position and motorcycle-inspired centre console with grey casual fabric seats. Driver seat height adjustment is standard along with tilt steering wheel, manual air conditioning, front and rear electric windows, and electrically adjustable door mirrors. Rear seats split 60/40 for flexible loading. Boot space reaches 354 litres on 2WD models with a flexi-floor board.
