Following the LEAF, Nissan’s iconic Juke is in line to receive an all-electric version (EV). The Juke EV, unveiled for the first time with its new look, signals a major design overhaul that has generated considerable curiosity ahead of its launch.

A Completely New Look for the Juke

Admittedly, the first-generation Juke wasn’t universally admired for its design. However, it continued to be Nissan’s second-best-selling vehicle in Europe after the Qashqai. Nissan announced the launch of three new EV models: the next-generation LEAF, Qashqai, and Juke, as part of its plan to modernize its Sunderland, England, plant with an investment of approximately £3 billion (approximately $3.9 billion).

Following the introduction of the new, third-generation LEAF, Nissan now aims to introduce the Juke EV in 2026 and the Qashqai EV in 2027. Ahead of its upcoming official launch, the electric Nissan Juke has been spotted under camouflage for the first time. Despite the heavy camouflage, the vehicle clearly features a significant design improvement over the outgoing Juke.

Images from Motor.es show the EV version has a similar profile to the current Juke, but the front and rear fascias appear to be more closely aligned with the new LEAF’s styling. The grille is now fully enclosed, and the front fascia features Nissan’s new V-Motion design language. At the rear, a new light bar connecting the taillights is prominent.

The spy shots also provided the first glimpse of the interior, revealing dual central infotainment and driver cluster displays. As with the new LEAF, the Juke EV will likely come standard with 12.3-inch screens, with larger 14.3-inch displays available on higher trim levels.

While Nissan has not yet announced final specifications or pricing, the electric Juke is expected to be based on the same CMF-EV platform as the new LEAF. The new Nissan LEAF is available in the UK with two battery options (52 kWh and 75 kWh), promising a WLTP range of 271 miles (approximately 436 km) and 386 miles (approximately 621 km) respectively. The Juke EV is also expected to deliver similar range expectations.
