Anyone else have that Pure Drive emblem?

You purchased a vehicle without knowing if it's FWD or AWD?!!!?!?

I have it on my 2012SL. "The 2012 JÚKE also carries the PÚREDRIVE™ designation. PÚREDRIVE is used on models utilizing Nissan's most advanced technologies to promote eco-friendly driving and lower CO2 emissions" so I am proud to let others know I am reducing environmental hazards. On a different, side dummy note: I don't know if I have an AWD or FWD. I don't see buttons on left of steering wheel near gas tank opening to indicate an AWD, but I've got all that torque motor changing stuff. How do I know for sure?

Check out Curious' Post:

Here are a couple of writeups describing the differences between a 4WD and an AWD...The Juke is offered with AWD and if your Juke is an AWD then it should be clearly stamped on the right rear as well as listed on your window sticker when purchased...

And easier yet ...if your muffler is mounted sideways its an AWD!

I know man... I don't know how some people don't know crap about vehicles yet they sign on the dotted line. I think i'm going into car sales... i'd make a killing finding people to sell their "right now" car to.

It can happen - people are focusing on other things at the time. By the time they finally pick their model, they aren't sure what they've got.

I went in requiring AWD, and they almost talked me into a manual.... They knew what I wanted and were so busy showing me all the different permutations that I almost missed that the manual is FWD only. And hey - to some, FWD might mean Four Wheel Drive.... not Front.

In the end of my sale, I was still making sure what package I have. All the acronyms can be bit much. The car has such pull I simply worked very quickly because I wanted to drive it asap. I am so perfectly happy with my Jukester.

Turns out I have the FWD and love it just the same!

The Pure Drive Emblem is Awesome! I will be purchasing that before the vehicle and have it ready to stick on as soon as it arrives. I refuse to drive a car unless it has the Pure Drive emblem on it. Going to put one on my wife too!

If you purchase a 2012, the emblem comes on the car factory installed. Are you looking at a 2011? Also, I seem to remember the dealer giving me some additional info concerning the requirements for meeting Nissan's "Pure Drive" designation. I could be wrong. You get a lot of additional manuals and info from Nissan at the time of purchase. I had a binder when I left the dealer with my car.

Look under the car. If you see a drive shaft at each wheel, it is AWD. If you see them only at the front wheels, then it is FWD. Also, AWD models have independant rear suspension, not a long beam from left to right wheels. Hope this will help you.

You have awd if you have a switch for awd-vector, awd, and fwd. And theres a switch to turn off the limited slip diff, too much technology...sheesh.

I'm new to the site and catching up on the threads, so I'm sorry for being late.
But I do love the humor.
