The flat metal box in the engine compartment, from which orange high-voltage cables come out, confirms that we are indeed dealing with a real self-charging hybrid device, and not a shabby mild hybrid analogue. Unlike its competitors, the Nissan Juke Hybrid uses a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine without a turbocharger.
From a standstill, the Juke Hybrid moves with a typically electric sound. The power of the electric motor is 36 kW or 49 hp, which is a third of the total power of the device. It is 143 hp. Acceleration on paper is only one and a half seconds better than the gasoline turbo with 114 hp. This is because the hybrid is 100 kilograms heavier.
