Earlier this month, I was curious about the Kicks, so I rented one for a few days. I came away impressed, and then bought TWO of them: One for me and one for my fiancee. It's entertaining to have two car payments - which combined - are still less than the payment on my previous Forester Touring.

Your reviews are the best I've seen on KZread (and print, as well).

Alex, I suggest you mention and compare interior width or front seat width when you review. Also the back seat thighy support length. It would be very helpful since some vehicles have same exterior width but much narrower seats and interior width. Some have more legroom, but their seats are terribly short

Thank you for this great informative review of the nissan kicks.

Ayee Pumped Up Kicks. No available sunroof?

Like the first gen versa, the kicks is holding its value very well. 2018 models are selling used for almost the same price as the 2020 models. It's almost unprecedented that Nissan built 2 economy cars that hold their value like that.

Would like to see this redone for the 2021 Kicks. Its a popular segment, and the vehicle has gotten significant updates to everything save for the crappy powertrain.

It’s a hatchback on stilts, Nissan say it’s a compact CUV but if you look at the numbers it’s similar dimensions to a Impresa hatch, and the civic hatch has slightly larger interior room

Another reason to pick Kicks is the dual tone exterior, which is also rare in its segment.

The Volvo XC40 T5 offers 2 tone options as well as an offering from Chevy.

As a small, raised CUV-like vehicle, the Kicks has a niche to fill and that is the inexpensive vehicle with good gas mileage, raised drive height and good cargo capacity . . . and it sells about 50000 a year. - I believe a 24,000 dollar AWD drive trim would seriously raise their sales numbers . . . but, I suppose that Nissan thinks that the Rogue Sport covers that niche.

George L The same transmission was used reliably in Japan for many years. They just made minor changes for US market tastes including using a different ECU or ECU programming. It’s not a new, unproven transmission that’s only been used for 3 years. They also had a manufacturing defect in the first month of production of Corolla hatchbacks. It was then corrected and the problem no longer exists. They don’t continue producing vehicles with the same reliability issue lasting long term the way Nissan has with their Jacto transmissions.

webcomment ALL transmissions are flawed until that flaw was corrected. That’s not a standard for reliability. The standard is how often they have flaws and how costly those fixes are. One transmission on a model may perform great, but put it on a different car and it becomes shit. Why? It has different forces applied onto it and has engineering differences for it to fit the other car, creating possible faults.For example, the transmission we’re talking about, before being applied to the Corolla/Auris was used only on the smaller Vitz/Yaris/Echo line. Then Toyota adapted it to the Auris/Corolla by modification, which caused the issues.

It has the JATCO cvt so no matter how nice it is it won’t be cheaper to keep when you have to repair or replace the cvt. Even if you get 5K off MSRP you may have to spend the same to fix the cvt when it breaks.

Overall I like the vehicle but seat adjustment, lack of sunroof option, and weak arm rest are a few of my complaints

Nice and enough power for a light car

Scotty told me not to buy a Nissan .

In the end I bought a 2020 Kia Soul. I test drove a Seltos and the Niro. Neither had the room that the Soul does. I rented a 2019 Soul to go to the Kia dealership. (I live on a island and have to ferry to the mainland) and the comparison was huge. The 2020 Soul has so much more pickup. Additionally, many of these Crossovers have these small rear windows. It's to give them a sleeker look but it reduces visibility a lot. Only the Forester (the leased car I turned in) had similar visibility to the KIA Soul.

Too bad it uses a JATCO CVT. Expect that CVT to fail early.

This guys really good, but like many others he tends to mix together whats important about one car to another. In other words, if hes reviewing a $50k-$60k car I'll understand and appreciate him going over all the ins and outs...like how well the drivers seat adjusts. But at this price point? Its pretty irrelevant and certainly shouldn't be factored into the score he's going to give it. This is why reviews for cars are becoming less and less valuable I think. You look at what a lot of these sites are giving lower scores for and a lot of it just doesn't make sense. Personally Ive been studying all the cars in my price range which is up to $25k. Mainly the hatchback type. The Mazda 3 Hatchback won out after weeks of research. Its been looking like I'll be paying my limit of $25k for the Mazda give or take. Then today I happened upon a Nissan site around here that has a handful of new 2020 Kicks leftover. All either SR or SV trim...$16,000-$16,800! The 2021 Kicks at these trims are $21k-$23k. So Im like damn, I dont think I can ignore this! Im paying cash outright and going to keep it forever so...a lil more important decision than usual. What do yall think? Thats a giveaway price isnt it for the new 2020s?

I came close to buying a Kicks in late 2018, but since the trade-in estimator was gone for the day I left and never bought it. Now, having just watched your reviews of the Kicks and K5 back to back, I'm not sure why anyone would buy the Kicks, except for its higher seating position. The K5 gets the same fuel economy, but it's quicker, quieter, larger, and nicer, and it doesn't have a CVT. Plus, it has the better warranty. You can get a decent K5 for the same price as a Kicks SR.

I agree, but the Qashqai/Rogue Sport is the better competitor against the Seltos.

I prefer this to the trailblazer because of its engine...the N/A 4 cylinder engine is likely going to outlast a turbocharged three cylinder engine. As for the CVT, if you maintain it regularly, it shouldn't give many issues. There could be some exceptions, though.

J T Interesting... How is it better? Lower power, lower passenger and cargo volume, a worse transmission too... How is the Nissan better?

Damilola Akanni Unfortunately, this CVT will not last, even if maintained. It’s just too light duty for the weight of the car. It overheats.

@@afcgeo882 Too much weight??? It's 2500lb, try to find a lighter modern day car that's the same size. Also most of it's competiton and even larger cars with a lot more torque use CVT's and run just fine. The Trailblazer also comes with a CVT (in FWD trim) and weighs over 500 lbs more!

I despise these little suvs Like why get an suv that’s unpractical??! Most cuvs like rav4 crv etc are way better value and size!

Some ppl like my wife want a lifted up hatchback 🤷‍♂️ without going for a crossover like the size of a crv or Rav4.

When you live in a large city like NYC then you need something small for parking
