The 2019 Nissan Kicks is part of the crossover's first generation that debuted in 2018. Powered by a 1.6-liter inline-four engine producing 122 horsepower, the Kicks comes with front-wheel-drive configuration and a smooth CVT transmission. It's available in three trims: the base S, mid-range SV, and top-tier SR. Significant features include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking as standard. Higher trims offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity on the 7-inch touchscreen, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. For 2019, Nissan introduced rear-door alert to all trims to fend off potential accidents.
