With so many subcompact SUVs on the market, it can seem overwhelming at first. Yet, when you take a closer look, there’s only one that has the most capability while still providing the coolest looks. That vehicle, the 2023 Nissan Kicks, is incredibly capable. It starts with a fuel-efficient yet powerful 1.6L engine that proudly achieves 31 mpg city and 36 mpg highway. 122 hp and 114 lb-ft of torque give you just the right amount of power to get you where you need to go without breaking the bank and requiring numerous trips to the gas station. Lightweight design also lends to the incredible fuel economy.
The 2023 Kicks has more than just power, though!
It offers incredible handling like never seen before. Electric Power Steering provides responsiveness when you need it, handling turns like a pro on tight city streets and highway exit ramps alike. Handling is also further enhanced by Active Ride Control, Intelligent Engine Brake, and Intelligent Trace Control in order to create a smoother ride.
2023 Kicks also come with convenient capabilities, like Hill Start Assist and Automatic Brake Hold. While Hill Start Assist stops you from rolling backwards on steep hills, Automatic Brake Hold engages the brakes at stop lights so that you don’t have to constantly push the pedal down.
