SR 4dr Front-Wheel Drive
2019 Nissan Kicks
The 2019 Nissan Kicks is a tidy blend of subcompact hatchback and crossover. Replacing the quirky Juke, the expressive Kicks is definitely not boring. The front-wheel-drive 2019 Kicks uses a 122-horsepower inline-4 mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). It isn't offered with all-wheel drive, but its 25-foot cargo space is anything but small. Up to four adult passengers fit in its cabin, though three smaller people can ride in back in a pinch.
The Kicks is fairly light at about 2,650 pounds, and its steering is light, so it feels quick-witted in the city.
With no changes made for 2019, the Kicks remains a good value, as the SV model at about $21,200 is very well-equipped, including automatic emergency braking.
The Kicks is EPA-rated at 31 mpg city, 36 highway, 33 combined.
The IIHS named the Kicks a Top Safety Pick in 2018, with mostly top 'Good'? scores. In the challenging small-overlap crash test, the passenger side earned an 'Acceptable'? rating.
Standard safety equipment also includes high-beam headlights. Blind-spot monitors and rear cross-traffic alerts come on SV and SR trims..
