Exceeds my expectations!

I was worried after reading reviews, but I honestly couldn’t be more happy with my purchase. Great ride and so roomy. Yes, it has a small gas tank but my commute to work is 9 miles in town. Very peppy get up and go in town. Commuting daily and errands I can go 2 weeks on one tank of gas. I average 33mpg. This car may be marketed toward millennials first car, but this 52 year old empty nester thinks it’s the best car I’ve ever owned (like it more than our Rogue). I highly recommend this car for the price, gas mileage and safety features. I have no negatives for this car thus far. I have the SV in Aspen white. Cutest car ever! And did I mention remote start?

Looks is what attracted me to this care. I was looking to replace a 2016 Rogue at lease end and wanted to improve a bit on fuel mileage. I'm getting an average of 34mpg, so mission accomplished. My vehicle is blue with a white roof, which is a nice change from the solid colors I've had in the past. There is a large amount of cargo space which is much appreciated. The one thing I do miss from the Rogue is the ability to configure the cargo space in different ways. The Kicks has been a good vehicle at a great price so far. I've had mine for about three weeks nopw.

Awesome on Gas

Had the SV model for almost 3 months and love the amount of money I’m saving at the pump! I’m 58, 5’8 and have no problem getting in or out; however, I think only 2 small adults is the max for the rear seats. Only thing I would suggest is future updates to this model have higher and better designed cup holders. I’ve spilled many coffees at the drive thru trying to put the cup in the holder.

Fun crossover and great value

I bought the SR w/premium package. I have a 40 minute commute to work on I-275 and I-4 to Tampa and my Kicks is nimble and quick with ample get-up-and-go. I don’t know why the Edmunds reviewers hate the seats so much when my 5’5” self and 6’ husband find them super comfy! As other reviewers note, the tech in the car is great. My favorite thing is how it looks and I got the cayenne red w/black top- cutest car in the parking lot! And I like sitting higher up than a sedan :)

A great little vehicle for my 63 years

This is my fourth Nissan and third one in a row. I brought my 2016 Altima in for service and during the wait time I got to looking around the show room. I saw this little car and for me it was easier to get in and out of, much easier than the Altima. What I like best is the handling. I can turn this car around in the middle of the street with room to spare. The two main drawbacks to this vehicle for me are the headlights and the adjustability of the drivers seat. The high beams, to me, just do not seem to illuminate as far down the road as I would like them to. The high beam seems to be a bit yellow to me also which causes me to think that they appear to be incandescent . I miss the electric seats of the Altima. The seats in the Kicks are manually adjustable and you cannot effectively lower the seat to the floor but only tilt the seat pan. This leaves the front part under your legs at an odd angle which at first is an odd feeling .
