The exterior appearance of the two differs dramatically. If you were interested in a more classic SUV style comparison then check out our Chevrolet Trax model comparison article here. The Renegade goes for a more classic SUV style with oversize lights and the classic Jeep grill.  The Juke elects for a more polarizing tall, almost bug-eyed appearance.

When looking at the interior, a big benefit to the Jeep Renegade is how quite the drive is. Compared to the Nissan Juke the noise level of outside traffic or bumps in the road is significantly reduced. The Renegade is also wider than the Juke meaning that the two front-seat riders are suitably separated. When moving to the rear, the Reengade fills in with an extra 15 cubic feet more cargo space than the Nissan juke (51 cubic feet vs. 36 cubic feet).

With the Trailhawk model, off-roading is where the Jeep Renegade really jumps ahead of the competition. The interior is well laid out to allow you to quickly switch between drive modes. Hill decent control and other features ensure maximum grip and stability while the suspension shines even when only three tires are touching dirt. The Nissan Juke lacks significantly in this category. The Juke is aimed more at urban environment than rock-trails.

Overall the Jeep Renegade goes far to truly emphasizing the “U” in Sport Utility Vehicle. With its wide spacious interior and built for off-roading exterior and suspension the Jeep Renegade is a welcome new comer to a category pioneered by The Nissan Juke.
