Nissan model reference
Nissan Juke
What our record holds on the Juke, sold in the UK since 2010: body styles, fuel types and the road tax a used one pays.
No reliability figure is published for the Nissan Juke that this site could cite. What circulates instead is survey data from panels that select themselves, and warranty claim rates published by companies with something to sell.
Any percentage would be our own calculation. Which years count, and whether a facelift and a new generation sharing the Juke name are one model or two, both move the answer, and neither choice is anybody official's.
So the field does not exist. We do not average the other Nissan models into a number and put it here, and we do not push a marque figure down onto the Juke. What is real and specific is the paperwork for one car.
No fault ordering is published for the Juke
A 2014 1.5 dCi at around 109 g/km sits in band B, £20 a year in 2026/27.
That figure is a worked example for the year and engine named, not a rate for every Juke. Read the CO2 figure and the first registration date off the V5C before you budget, because both change the answer.

Buying a used Juke: what the record settles
Our record puts the Juke's UK sales period at since 2010. That range is the useful starting point, because everything about the cost of running one turns on where a particular example sits inside it. It came in one body style here, SUV, with 3 fuel types: petrol, diesel and petrol hybrid.
The Juke was on sale on both sides of the road tax change of 1 April 2017, and that is the single most useful thing to know before you buy one. An example first registered up to 31 March 2017 is taxed on its CO2 figure under the lettered bands, so engine, gearbox and even wheel size can move two cars of the same year into different bands. One registered from 1 April 2017 pays the flat standard rate instead and its CO2 stops mattering. Two otherwise identical cars a year apart can cost noticeably different amounts to keep taxed, and only the V5C tells you which one you are looking at.
For running costs the fuel matters more than the badge. On the diesels the emissions section is where a neglected car loses its certificate: the particulate filter is inspected and the smoke reading is measured against a limit, and a filter that has never had a long run to clear itself will not pass on a good intention. Four wheel drive versions carry more driveline than the two wheel drive ones. Driveshaft boots, propshaft joints and the extra bushes are all inspected, and they are the items that turn a cheap purchase into an expensive first year.
None of that is a substitute for the record of the actual car. The invoices name what was replaced, when and at what mileage, and the same job appearing twice in three years says more about a Juke than any statistic about the model ever could. A mileage that goes backwards across a paperwork trail is worth walking away from whatever the badge is.
Nissan sold its first cars here as Datsun from the late 1960s and opened its Sunderland plant in 1986, which has built Qashqai and Juke for the UK and Europe ever since. The Qashqai created the family crossover class in Britain and has been in the new car top three for years, so it is now equally dominant used. The Micra is the other volume story, with three decades of small hatchbacks still in daily use. That is context on the marque rather than on this car, and there is more of it, along with every other model line, on the Nissan page.
