2024 Nissan Kicks Highlights

The 2024 Nissan Kicks stands out as an entry-level SUV that seamlessly combines impressive fuel efficiency, agile handling, and a roomy cabin, creating a stylish and practical urban transport solution. With a starting price of $20,790 (plus destination fee), it offers a compelling choice for those seeking a well-rounded and attractive vehicle.

For the 2024 model year, Nissan has opted to maintain the Kicks without any significant changes. Remarkably, even in its seventh year within the current Kicks’ lifecycle, the vehicle retains a fresh and inviting aesthetic. Nissan’s creation, the Kicks, stands as a top-tier urban warrior—effortlessly maneuverable for parking and excelling in stop-and-go traffic. With the best fuel economy in its segment, the Kicks is not only a practical choice for city driving but also proves its mettle on road trips. Combining aesthetic appeal with budget-friendliness, the 2024 Nissan Kicks stands out as a stellar option in the entry-level crossover category. Competing with subcompact SUVs like the Chevy Trax and Hyundai Venue, the Kicks holds its own in this competitive market.

The lack of changes in the Kicks suggests that Nissan is likely saving the redesign for the 2025 model year. Introduced in 2018, the Kicks is approaching the point where a comprehensive makeover is expected.

Powertrain: Riding & Handling

Nissan attains its commendable estimated fuel economy figures for the Kicks by pairing a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine with a continuously variable automatic transmission. The design prioritizes fuel conservation over acceleration enhancement. While this combination ensures impressive mileage, it results in a rather leisurely acceleration. In urban settings, the unhurried pace goes unnoticed as you effortlessly navigate through gas stations. The Kicks excels in the rhythm of bustling city streets. However, you might perceive its less-than-enthusiastic performance when facing uphill inclines with a fully occupied cabin and a cargo area loaded with luggage.

Tech & More

Even in the base S model, the Kicks offers a full suite of safety technologies, including forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection. The package also encompasses rear-park assist with automatic braking, rear cross-traffic alert, blind-spot monitoring, and lane-departure warning. Every Kicks comes standard with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, allowing seamless integration of smartphones to access music, contacts, and navigation through the vehicle’s infotainment system. Available in the top-end SR trim, the 8-speaker Bose audio system delivers clear and crisp sound, enhancing the overall audio experience within the vehicle. Equipped with a 7-inch LCD screen, the advanced driver assist display, standard in the upper two trims, provides crucial driver information such as fuel efficiency, text messages, trip-computer details, and more. Setting the Kicks apart in the subcompact crossover category, the top-end SR trim features a surround-view camera system that utilizes strategically placed cameras to provide a bird’s-eye view of the vehicle and its immediate surroundings.
