Efficient and Effective Under the Hood
An area you'll want to inspect on any ride is the powertrain it has cookin' under the hood. So, that's where we'll kick off our tour of this Nissan vehicle.
After popping the hood on the 2021 Kicks, you'll find a 1.6L 4-cylinder engine that delivers 122 horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque. This engine is mated to an Xtronic CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission), which works to continuously optimize gear ratios, augmenting performance and efficiency in the process.
Together, this powertrain allows the Kicks to earn an impressive EPA-estimated 31 city/36 highway MPG.1Â So, whether you're headed up to the mountains for a weekend adventure or have your sights set on a trip to Boston for a few days in the city, you will not have to worry about frequent visits to the gas pump.
Kick Back and Relax in the Interior
Moving to the interior, you'll find a roomy cabin that allows you to seat up to five with ease. This is thanks to the 93.9 cubic feet of passenger volume you'll find inside the Kicks. Behind the second row of seating, you'll also find 25.3 cubic feet of cargo volume. It's the perfect size for storing gear and luggage for a weekend away or even just shopping bags from your trip to the mall.
Aside from space, the Kicks is also equipped with a slew of impressive features that will take your interior experience to the next level. Using the 7-inch multimedia display, you'll be able to connect your mobile device via Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay® integration for calling, texting, and music capabilities.
Pump up the volume on your interior experience further, with the available Bose Personal® Plus audio system. It comes with eight speakers, including Bose UltraNearfield™ driver headset speakers.
Safe and Secure Throughout
The Kicks also comes configured with a number of impressive driver-assistive technologies. These will work to make your drive as safe and as easy as possible, providing automation and assistance in certain settings.
For instance, you'll get a Forward Collision Warning system. This will monitor the roads ahead, alerting you and helping you stop should an obstruction present itself.
Other driver-assistive features the Kicks comes with include:
- Lane Departure Warning
- Rear Automatic Braking
- Blind Spot Warning
- Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- High Beam Assist
