2020 Nissan Kicks Trims Comparison

2020 Kicks trim level differences

The 2020 Nissan Kicks is a subcompact crossover available in three trim levels: S, SV and SR. The S trim is very basic, as are the upper trims compared to other subcompact crossovers. All models receive a 1.6-liter four-cylinder (122 horsepower, 114 lb-ft of torque) paired to a continuously variable automatic transmission that drives the front wheels. All-wheel drive is not available.

The S trim kicks things off with 16-inch steel wheels, automatic headlights, push-button start, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a height-adjustable driver's seat, 60/40-split folding rear seats, Bluetooth, a 7-inch touchscreen, Siri Eyes Free integration, three USB ports (two are charge-only), and a six-speaker audio system.

Standard safety features include automatic high-beam control, lane departure warning, a blind-spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, rear parking sensors, forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, and front and rear automatic emergency braking.

The SV adds 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails, heated mirrors, body-painted mirrors and handles, keyless entry, remote start, a driver information display, interior chrome accents, padded front door armrests, automatic climate control, a cargo cover, satellite radio, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration.

The range-topping SR comes with the SV's upgrades, plus LED headlights, foglights, black-painted mirrors, a rear roof spoiler, a 360-degree parking camera, upgraded cloth upholstery, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob.

The optional SR Premium package equips the Kicks with an eight-speaker Bose audio system, simulated leather upholstery and heated front seats. Both the SV and SR trims are eligible for a two-tone paint scheme.

Which 2020 Kicks trim does Edmunds recommend?

Unless the Kicks draws you in solely because of its ultra-low price tag, we think it's worth upgrading to one of the more well-equipped trims. The SV adds a ton of content, yet the SR is only marginally more expensive and comes with even more features. We think the LED headlights and surround-view camera system are worth the price of admission alone, but there are other goodies as well. The SR also opens the door to the Premium package and its upgraded accoutrements.
