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!

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.

HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN!

It was handed to me by Enterprise Leasing while my car was in the shop. On the Saturday night of my 5th day with it, a neighbor banged my door down. YOUR CAR IS ON! she yelled. Huh? I turned it off after last using it. I went downstairs to see. The car was eerily silent and there was very little ambient noise. I put my ear to it and heard nothing, felt no vibration. Then I looked at the panel: ON and blaring. It ate 3/4 of a tank of fuel just sitting there for maybe ten hours. Frankly, the experience spooked me. I'm grateful my neighbor saw what was going on. I looked it up and found an admission online that this car does this little trick. My 2003 Kia Rio gets better mileage and everyone under the sun is copying the body style. No way the Kicks gets 31 mpg in city driving as they claim. The car itself showed me 21.2 mpg on the dashboard. My paint job is finished in a few days, and I'll be glad to see my humble Kia again. Bells and whistles = trouble in the long run.

I am quite happy with my 2025 Kicks. I have had no problems and the dealer was great. I'm getting 38 mpg with plenty of zip, very nibble handling.

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.

Great Commuter!

I have been overall satisfied with the new Kicks after nearly 2,000 miles on the odometer. The vast features have proven their value including the responsive AWD in unpleasant weather. I've also noticed the refinement in the powertrain when compared to my '22 Sentra, Nissan claims a meaningful reduction in CVT friction likely contributing to my experiences. Ride in the SR trim Kicks is Rogue-like and when driven smooth, is exactly that. While road noise certainly creeps into the cabin, some reviewers blow this out of proportion, simply crack up the Bose... especially as higher volumes are the only way to squeeze any power out of the sound system. Lastly, handling is a positive for the Kicks, even when accounting for the negatives the Kicks faces in terms of increased weight and SUV handling-characteristics it manages to not get overly upset + can handle corners like a champ.

This car runs smooth, handles real well and has all the options I was looking for in a little sports car. Price is great for a new 2025. Won't be disappointed in this car.
