I still can't believe how enjoyable the #nissankicks redesign is to drive. Add to the fact it's one of the most affordable cars in America, it adds up to be one of the best buys on the market.
The all-new 2025 Nissan Kicks ups the ante in the compact crossover segment with unexpected levels of available technology, a street-smart design inspired by high-end sneakers, exceptional versatility and increased confidence for drivers.
Every Kicks grade is offered with optional Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, providing additional confidence and control in many weather conditions and road surfaces. As an added benefit when navigating rough roads or snow, Kicks boasts segment-leading ground clearance of 8.4 inches.
At first glance, the 2025 Nissan Kicks makes a strong impression with its bold and expressive design. The wide stance and fenders give way to a more rounded, protected cabin. Strong fenders and a distinctive boxiness define the lower half of the vehicle, compared to the cleaner upper body.
Moving inside, Kicks has an immediately modern and airy look. The interior was designed to counter the tough, robust exterior with a more cocoon-like sensation.
The dashboard features a dual-screen setup: one for the instrument meter, one for the infotainment system. The standard meter measures 7 inches, while Kicks SR upgrades to an even more striking 12.3-inch unit with two display modes: A more traditional Classic and a more feature-rich Enhanced view.
A first for Kicks, both rows of seats use Nissan's Zero Gravityโข seating design, helping distribute weight and pressure across the occupants' bodies for a more comfortable seating position to help reduce fatigue.
An available powered panoramic moonroof brings additional light and airiness into the cabin.
The 2025 Nissan Kicks was developed to optimize interior room for passenger comfort and cargo space, while maintaining a compact exterior size that makes driving and parking in the city a cinch.
Kicks S and SV include Intelligent Cruise Control as standard. Kicks SR adds even more convenience with ProPILOT AssistOpens in a new tab., which adds steering assistance to help keep the driver centered in their lane, making highway driving simpler.
All Kicks grades employ a 2.0-liter inline-four engine rated for 141 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque, coupled to the latest generation of Nissan's Xtronic transmission.
The 2025 Nissan Kicks is offered in three compelling grade levels, S, SV and SR, with two available Premium packages, giving buyers the opportunity to select the Kicks that best fits their lifestyle.
