My husband and I just recently purchased two new Nissan’s one being the 2021 Nissan Kicks SR. We are absolutely in love with this little crossover! We love the road manners, the safety features, and the color! We got the Boulder Gray with black wheels. About to take it in a 9 hour trip in a week! Keep up the awesome work Nissan!

I average 34 mph (how is the other guy getting 39?), and that's better than the Rogue that I had. It's very zippy, accelerates well, and corners well. I recently drove it on a long road trip, (2 full days of driving), and felt fine at the end of each day. The front collision sensor is a little too sensitive, and it's annoying to have it slow down from my cruise control speed when it thinks that the vehicle is front is too close(it's not). Shifting into reverse is clunky. I would like more console storage. Overall I'm happy with my purchase.

Kick back and relax with the Kicks

This is a very good car for the money. Loads of tech, great fuel economy, and it looks great too. The orange paint with the black roof really pops and despite what the Edmunds review says, the Nissan zero gravity seats are fantastic. I'm a big guy and pretty tall and these seats makes me feel like I'm floating as I drive around town. It's not fast by any means but I didn't buy this car to drag race. My only real gripe about the Kicks is the lack of storage in it. Only 2 cup holders and the center console storage bin is very small. I also which the Kicks had a sun roof, but its not a deal breaker. Overall, I am in love with my Nissan Kicks. I think its a very good value for the money, esp with all the tech in the SR trim.

I had a Nissan Nuke for 7 years and loved it. It was the most reliable and fun to drive car I’ve ever owned. It looks as though the Kicks will do a great job as a follow up to the Juke.

It really shocked me about how much i like this car so much. I thought the back leg space would be a killer but it’s really not that bad. I do love this car a lot. I want it to last a long time.
