Let’s take a look now at what makes the Kicks such an exciting purchase for Illinois drivers.

There’s a lot to love about the specs of the Nissan Kicks, but without a doubt, its best virtue is fuel efficiency. No matter the terrain you’re driving over or the speed you’re doing, you’ll discover that visits to the gas station are a rare event when you’re behind the wheel of your 2024 Nissan Kicks. Your monthly budget will suddenly have more wiggle room that you can either save and invest the extra cash or spend it on trips you’ve been wanting to take. In our experience, the Kicks is a smart investment at purchase and a smart long-term investment thanks to its fuel efficiency. The savings don’t end when you leave the lot.
The Kicks’ 1.6L four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine features a dual injector system that provides the Kicks with its famed fuel efficiency. Combine that with its Continuously Variable Valve Timing Control System, and your engine has two separate systems working overtime to make your subcompact SUV soar without guzzling gas. Both systems aim to reduce emissions by using less fuel as the engine’s performance will change to best adapt to the circumstances on the road or the speed you’re going. The result? The engine won’t ever use unnecessary energy, which is how it conserves much more fuel than its competitors.
The Kicks has an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of 31 MPG in the city and 36 MPG on the highway, for a combined rating of 33 MPG. Due to the stop-and-go nature of city driving, your fuel gets eaten up a little faster, but the Kicks’ city rating beats out many other SUVs’ highway ratings.
Thanks to the Kicks’ size and nimble handling, it's fun to drive around even the narrowest streets. It steers well, responding to even gentle touches, and you’ll never have the sensation that you’re lumbering. With available 17-inch wheels, your ride will always be smooth no matter where the highway takes you.
Don’t let the fact that the Kicks is a subcompact fool you; this SUV still has a lot of room for both seating and luggage. Unlike rival subcompacts, the rear seats are designed so that adults can sit in them almost as comfortably as they can in the front. The Kicks wants you to be confident that all of your passengers enjoy the journey no matter where they are seated. The cloth seat trim adds an extra dash of class to the interior, and the alternating gray and black coloring keeps it looking fresh.
The front seats in the Kicks are zero gravity seats. They provide a neutral posture, using space-age technology, that keeps the driver alert thanks to less stress on the back. One reason drivers grow tired during a long trip is that their body is expending effort due to poor positioning. This can lead to fatigue, which can, in turn, lead to a safety issue on the road if the driver’s instincts are dulled. With the smart seating in the Kicks’ front row, this won’t be an issue you’ll have to spend any time worrying about, and you won’t feel achy after long drives.
The design of the Kicks' cargo area means you’ll be able to get the most out of the available cargo space. Cargo tie-downs will let you keep any valuables securely fastened so bumps in the road don’t do any damage. You can place the second row of seats face down so that you can get additional room in your rear storage area: 32.3 cu.ft. in all. If you’re looking for space to store small items, the large glovebox and large door pockets will accommodate them easily. No space goes to waste in the 2024 Nissan Kicks.
There’s no excuse for a lack of technology in a modern vehicle, yet too many cars and SUVs have flashy exteriors without anything going on inside to match. Not so with the 2024 Nissan Kicks. Its good-looking exterior is matched with an interior that provides the driver with a host of smart, intuitive systems that provide infotainment and security. It has a remote start with intelligent climate control; say goodbye to cold commutes on winter mornings or sticky commutes in the summer months.
The Nissan Kicks comes with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay so that you can connect your device directly to the seven-inch touchscreen. This will let you use your apps, including navigation, with ease, and it will also allow you to blast your playlist as you rocket down the highway or listen to a podcast if you end up stuck in traffic. You can opt for an available WiFi hotspot, too, so you’re always connected instead of relying on data for your device.
You can stay up to date on your Kicks’ status with the MyNISSAN app. This smartphone app will let you know when your Kicks was last serviced, and it can also connect you to emergency services if you run into trouble on the road. You can customize it to set other alerts, too, so that you always know how your Kicks is performing on the road or when it’s time to rotate the tires.
As with all Nissan vehicles, the Kicks comes with the exceptional Nissan Safety Shield 360. This system uses the Kicks’ cameras and sensors to act as a co-pilot when you’re on the road. You’ll be warned if you’re departing your lane, and your Kicks will alert you to anything or anyone crossing behind the vehicle when you’re backing up. If you’re worried about blind spots, you will be pleased that the Kicks’ sensors can keep an eye on those, too, letting you know if other vehicles or obstacles are near your Kicks but out of your personal view. These systems let you travel with a sense of security when you’re on the road, making driving a pleasure.
