In comparison, mini countryman one and Nissan Juke 1.6 to the established Skoda Yeti meet 1.4 TSI. Crossover are difficult, even if they are only front-driven and motorized with 98 to 122 HP quite narrow as shown here.
Luckily it is only a rumor that young people are no longer looking for cars and instead of games consoles and MP3 players prefer. They know that very well that they are at best come with the electronics toys to the virtual Bike Park. In the real world, it needs to still have four wheels, which should however stuck under a cool shell.
A mini is all up in their favor, even if the did no longer mini, but as with the latest model of the mini countryman is 4.10 M long and 1.56 metres high. Because recently there the countryman with four doors, either four or five seats and a luggage compartment, which is also worthy of the name. However the already hefty prices are growing, the base version already one with 98 HP and front-wheel drive rips a hole of at least 20.200 euros in the budget.
Nissan Juke 1.6 is visually quite daring and attracts the most attention by far. This is the basic model with 117 PS from 16.990 euro to have, and even in the best facilities of Tekna it costs with 19.890 euro less than the austere mini countryman. The optically fairly inconspicuous rival of the two Charakterkopfe, the Skoda Yeti 1.4 TSI 122 HP, is also for 19.850 euros in the price list, occurs in comparison however in the 24.690 euro expensive top flavor experience.
Ausstattungsbereinigt remains the Nissan Juke 1.6 here the most advantageous tender, because the Tekna are already-Clima, 17-inch wheels, cruise control, map navigation, multifunction steering wheel and Bluetooth interface for mobile phones on board, while much of extra to be paid at the competition. With the same equipment, the Skoda comes more, the mini countryman even 5.950 EUR Yeti 5.850 EUR. There was already a small car for these amounts times of the scrapping premium.
However, the Nissan Juke loses 1.6 points key in the security chapter, because there are no Xenon light only for him and his braking system almost four meters later to stand brings him from 100 km/h as the rival mini countryman and Skoda Yeti. But also of the Skoda Yeti is here with his long stopping distance of 128 meters on different grip surface (?-split measurement) springs, while the mini countryman comes after 103 meters on the irrigated area to a halt.
Also, the Nissan Juke 1.6 is in noticeably more closely cut in same area. The trunk measures tiny 251 litre and can be extended only to 830 litres. The mini countryman offers here already a daily reality format (350/1,170 litres), but the Skoda Yeti rear compartment looks, however, with 405 to 1,580 liters as a warehouse. It offers three rear single seats, which are often move, work, and also take out. This variability ennobles him to the real SUV, because only he swallows bulky sports equipment without major dislocations.
In its interior of Skoda, four adults generous space on tight, but comfortable seats find Yeti. So that if necessary in the middle of the Fund, even a fifth passenger can be accommodated, the seats are however very narrow down. At the mini countryman, you have the choice between four- and five-seater, but front lack thigh pad. For he is even back surprisingly spacious, although he is the shortest car compared. There is, however, the Nissan Juke 1.6 both space and comfort.
That applies particularly to the suspension of Nissan Juke, starting a minimum level of smoothness. After all, the tight design ensures a very good handling, which indicate the Nissan Juke this comparison as a cam artist. In terms of driving pleasure, he is as competent as you would actually expect of the mini countryman. He, however, disappointed with an inhomogeneous, too pointed designed steering and zackt more on bad roads, almost like a hare on the run. For his suspension cushions so sensitive, as it could so far still no mini.
Still more spoiled the passengers in the Skoda be coordinated Yeti overly soft 1.4 TSI almost gentle rolling healed climbing tracks, without to be and to call for significant cuts in the driving dynamics. Also in the domain, he has the most to offer, for his charged 1, 4-liter four cylinder is cultivated and powerful, although with a test consumption of 8 L / 100 km not very economical. Here, the high curb weight and in particular the large front surface apparently take their toll.
The two hundredweight mini countryman lighter is content at least on average 0.4 litres less, although he constantly behind the other, hecheln and be held to speed must. There is no his 1, 1.6-liter basic engine simply power and performance, while the equal four cylinder of Nissan Juke 1.6 is at least willing to twist and bubbly. So that its benefits are but largely exhausted, because it runs at unkultiviertesten, and the high noise level is a real imposition in the long term. He urgently needs a speed and thus noise-lowering, six-speed transmission, as the other two have it as standard.
So the Nissan Juke can decide 1.6 only environmental and cost chapter for itself and lands three on rank. The mini countryman handling finishes second surprising last, unexpectedly good for it in safety and comfort. As the superior winner of the Skoda Yeti drives 1.4 TSI of the line, because he instead of grandstanding on balance and value sets. Thus, it is perhaps although no cult figure with the youngsters, but at least for the more mature youth.
