The Nismo RS has a power bump that moves it up to 215 horsepower – not bad for a little crossover. In markets outside the U.S., an 81 horsepower diesel is available as is a 1.2-liter gasoline powered mill.
In all three “S” trims and Nismo trim, the Juke offers up 188 horsepower from a 1.6-liter, four-cylinder engine. For the 2016 model year, the Juke is available in five trim levels – the S, SV, SL, Nismo, and Nismo RS. The Juke got a facelift in 2015 that gave it a refreshingly new look and additional cargo space. Introduced in 2011, the Juke saw overwhelming success. The Nissan Juke has to be about the boldest and funkiest little crossover to have ever been created. Just don’t expect to pull much of anything with this crossover, or expect it to get up to speed in a hurry, and you’ll be Okay. To me, it still seems that the little SUV is significantly underpowered, but then again, it does return 26 mpg in the city and 34 on the highway, so it isn’t all bad. Power output remains the same from the outgoing model, with the little four-banger putting out 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque. Even when equipped with all-wheel drive, the system is still biased toward the front axle, so don’t expect much from the rear wheels until traction becomes an issue. The Trax is pulled down the road by the front wheels, but an all-wheel drive system is available. It is still mated to the Hydra-Matic 6T40 six-speed automatic. Chevy didn’t feel the need to provide any upgrades whatsoever, so under that newly designed hood sits the same 1.4-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Here in the drivetrain department, it’s a “more of the same” situation. The instrument cluster on Premier models will have contrasting color trim that matches the leather seat trim. The instrument cluster also has more of a rounded shape as opposed to the outgoing model's rectangular unit.

The new Trax has two gauges – one for engine speed and the other for vehicle speed – with a small 3x4-inch driver information screen in the lower right corner. The outgoing model had a single gauge positioned on the left, with a digital display to the right.

The other major update to the interior is the instrument cluster itself. Instead of going with the “chameleon eyes” look that had circular vents, Chevy went with more rectangular units that sit vertically in each corner. The corner vents on the dash are also of a different design. The trim insert around the screen and the center vents is Chrome, as is the trim that surrounds the corner vents and the center console. Instead of the pad on the dash that extended down around the center stack, the pad on the new model provides a slight overhang above the seven-inch MyLink color touch screen. The interior brings even more welcomed changes, with the most obvious being the changes to the dashboard.
