After much anticipation, Nissan has finally lifted the veil on its new 2025 Kicks model, which promises freshness in the SUV segment. Nissan Kicks, the most affordable high-seater on the market, with affordability and promising technical specifications, is the perfect choice for those looking for an attractive combination of comfort, style and performance.

It boasts a refined design that combines new V-motion grilles with horizontal slats, repositioned LED headlights that now sit higher, new taillights, a new tailgate and a cleaner-looking rear bumper. The exterior is also complemented by new three-spoke alloy wheels, which add a finishing touch to the model.

Under the hood is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with 122 horsepower and 155 Nm of torque, mated to a CVT transmission and front-wheel drive, which provides an average consumption of 7.1 l/100 km.

Every Nissan Kicks model offers an optional Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System that provides added confidence and control in a variety of weather conditions and on a variety of surfaces. AWD Kicks models include a “snow” driving mode that adapts the logic of the four-wheel drive system and the Vehicle Dynamic Control system with special tuning for slippery surfaces. Suspension control using targeted braking further ensures that the Kicks stays on the driver's desired ride when cornering on snow or ice.

The more powerful Kicks model is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 141 horsepower (105 kW) and 190 Nm (140 lb-ft) of torque, mated to Nissan's latest generation Xtronic transmission. This powertrain provides confident acceleration, including highway overtaking, thanks to a responsive transmission and strong engine torque in the low and mid-rpm range.

Although the current information does not yet reveal everything about the interior, changes such as a new infotainment system and digital gauges are expected. We also expect improvements in the quality of production, which will respond to the wishes and expectations of customers.

Nissan Kicks 2025 sets new milestones in the world of urban SUVs. With a design overhaul, technological upgrades and improved driving characteristics, Nissan is not looking back.
