The Nissan Kicks is part of the ever-growing small SUV class that offers customers a nice mixture of performance with the right amount of space to haul around groceries, work stuff, or the kid’s sports equipment. Check out these features of the Kicks to see if it’s the right vehicle for you.
Performance
The Kicks is an agile little crossover SUV that’s built to get in and out of thick city traffic easy and efficiently. It has a 1.6-liter, dual overhead cam, inline four-cylinder engine that generates 125 horsepower and 114 pound-feet of torque. This engine combined with the vehicle’s light weight gives it quick acceleration that isn’t overpowering, which is great for weaving through congested streets.
Driving this front-wheel-drive crossover is Nissan’s Xtronic continuously variable transmission that eliminates the traditional lag that comes from gear shifting, along with features like Hill Assist that keep the Kicks from moving regardless of the incline. The suspension consists of independent front struts and a torsion bar in the rear that gives the vehicle solid control through turns, as well as offering a smooth ride over bumpy terrain. Four-wheel disc brakes with anti-lock braking technology provide more than enough stopping power for this featherweight SUV.
Exterior
Designed to be sleek and have an urban feel, the lines on the Kicks are sharp and add to the low profile look that actually betrays the amount of space inside. There are options for either 16- or 17-inch aluminum wheels, as well as LED headlights with signature accents. A black grille with silver accents, along with black bumpers and wheel accents round out the Kicks look.
Interior
Though this may be the smallest SUV crossover that Nissan offers, that in no way means that passengers will feel cramped. There is ample leg, head, and body room in this five-seater to fit comfortably, even in the backseat. An unusually large cargo space makes it possible to haul around much more than class competitors, and this amount can be further increased by folding down the rear seats. Seats use cloth fabric that is spill and stain resistant and the floor is carpeted.
As far as infotainment goes, the NissanConnect system comes with a 7-inch color touch-screen display that can access a variety of entertainment apps like SiriusXM and Pandora, navigational software that includes GPS tracking, and security features. The button layout is intuitive and easy to learn, and owners will delight in features like voice-activated door locking through Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Bluetooth synchronization lets drives connect their phone or another device directly to NissanConnect, which opens up more options to play content as well as making phone calls.
With their commitment to offering competitively priced vehicles with a high level of craftsmanship, it’s no wonder that Nissan’s smallest SUV is a top choice in its class. Check out these models that are currently available and take one for a test drive to see if the Nissan Kicks is the next SUV for you.
