The compact Nissan Juke made its debut in Japan in 2010 and quickly earned a reputation as one of the most visually daring SUVs on the market. After two generations, the model is now preparing to enter its third iteration—one that promises an even more radical design.

Japanese digital artist Toki Design has released a new set of renders previewing the next-generation Nissan Juke. The images are based on official teaser visuals Nissan shared in the spring of last year.

According to the independent designer, the new Juke will draw heavy inspiration from the Hyper Punk concept car, which Nissan unveiled in the fall of 2023.

The crossover is expected to feature distinctive hexagonal headlights and a signature lighting element integrated into the leading edge of the hood. The body design also calls for pronounced, sculpted fenders that push well beyond conventional crossover styling.

The rear of the vehicle hasn’t been shown yet, but the Hyper Punk concept offers some clues. That show car featured triangular taillights and a high-mounted brake light, elements that could carry over to the production model.

So far, there are no confirmed details about the mechanical setup of the new Juke. One thing appears certain, however: the third-generation model will be a fully electric vehicle.

Rumors suggest Nissan plans to unveil the new Juke sometime in 2026. Europe is expected to be its primary market, though the model’s bold styling could attract attention well beyond the continent.
