Perfect Sporty Looking Commuter

I have 2025 Nissan Kicks SR, gun metal gray with scarlet ember roof, it's a head turner. I absolutely love my car, it is the perfect commuter, fits anywhere and that 360 camera has opened up a whole new world of parking to me. I took of a star because my instrument panel monitor went out 2 weeks after I had the car for no apparent reason. They did a factory reset and I have had no other issues since. Frankly I do not find noise to be an issue, and in every day commuting the whole 0-60 time is not an issue either, no problems getting on freeway and no strain driving 70-80 mph on the freeways. I do not do any off roading so I did not purchase the AWD model. The interior is luxurious, especially for this class of vehicle. I am delighted with my Kicks.

I traded a 2019 for the 2025 Kicks SV. Slightly smaller but still roomy enough for me. I put 1000 miles in the first 4 days. GREAT gas mileage and very comfortable!

Solid Design, Solid Mileage, Solid Ride

I'm not sure what the formal reviewer did with this car, but I easily get 30mpg as a general default with every tank, and I track gallons purchased over miles on the trip meter, not just what the dash says. I consider myself a 70% highway driver who drives at the pace of traffic. I'm sure if I threw sport mode on and raced everywhere, I would see a drop. I onramp onto highways just fine (including one uphill onramp I use every day) and pass with ease. Yes, it's not as powerful as most cars, but for what daily drivers do, it meets my expectations easily. Road noise is as expected for a small, lower-line SUV, and the ride is stiff as stated, but I don't find it uncomfortable. The Kicks handles nimbly for a small SUV. My only big gripe from a tech standpoint is that it does not come with Nissan Connect Services, even the SR with the Premium package added on. Boggles my mind that Nissan omitted it entirely across the Kicks line. That said, the double large displays are amazing, and the Bose premium sound package is stellar, especially the headrest speakers—like spatial audio as you drive. The only odd operational quirk, probably related to engine power, is the AC. There is a significant difference in airflow power when accelerating and when coasting, similar to a sudden breeze whipping up outside. It is a bit annoying when the fan is set to higher speeds, but nothing that makes me not want to drive or use the air on full force. I redirect the air, and it's fine. Overall, I've enjoyed having the car so far. Hopefully the long-term durability is equally as good as the initial review!

Comfortable and cost effective

This is the most comfortable vehicle in the compact SUV segment in my opinion. Lots of tech and sleek/simple interior. I've had no issues with mine and am very happy.
