2021 Nissan Kicks

For 2021, Nissan has redesigned the Kicks with updates to provide even more features, technology, customized style and value that buyers are seeking in a compact crossover.

While maintaining Kicks' compact urban crossover dimensions - with its large interior space and nimble, city-sized exterior for easy maneuverability - the extensive exterior changes immediately set Kicks apart from the competition.

Starting with a bold front end, a more aggressive bumper blends with the new "Double V-motion" grille, giving Kicks a more powerful SUV look. New headlights offer a high-tech, modern and premium effect, which is even further enhanced on the SR grade's super-thin LED multi-reflector design.

Standard exterior features include Intelligent Auto Headlights with adjustable sensitivity and timing, along with rear wiper and available roof rails, heated outside mirrors with integrated turn signals and rear roof spoiler.

The versatile interior offers a sporting flavor - provided by a D-shaped steering wheel, comfortable 6-way driver's seat, 4-way adjustable front passenger seat and 60/40-split fold-down rear seat. New seating materials include more saturated color, with the SR Premium Package featuring Prima-Tex�-appointed seating with three-tone design and stitching.

Every 2021 Kicks comes with a standard 1.6-liter 4-cylinder with Continuous Variable Valve Timing Control System. The engine is rated at 122 horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque and paired with a smooth, Xtronic transmission powering the front wheels.

Nimble handling is provided by a front independent strut, stabilizer bar suspension matched with rear suspension featuring twist beam and twin-tube shock absorbers. Kicks S grade comes with 16-inch steel wheels mounted with 205/60R16 all-season tires. Kicks SV and SR grades are equipped with 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels with 205/55R17 all-season tires.
