There is nothing quite like the 2025 Nissan Kicks. Our newest member of the SUV family offers the right amount of size, space, performance, practicality, and versatility. That is why we’re seeing a lot of praise for our new small SUV.  

Adding to these voices is the website Motor1.com. They went on to say that “the 2025 Kicks is excellent. It ticks all the right boxes for buyers in this category, looks good doing it, and still costs less than $25,000 to start.” 

The website praised the 2025 Kicks for a few key points about this vehicle, such as the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that now powers it. The 141-horsepower engine was developed to give the Kicks more passing power and a smoother cruise at highway speeds. It was also developed to carry the weight and extra capacity the Kicks offers to its drivers and passengers.

Part of the 2025 Kicks’ new driveline is the available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system. This system can spot which wheel is losing traction and sends power to it to balance out the grip needed in many conditions. Snow, ice, and heavy rainfall are no match for the 2025 Kicks with all-wheel drive. Even better, you can get all-wheel drive on all trim levels.  

Another bonus for the 2025 Kicks is how efficient it is for the size class. The Environmental Protection Agency rated the Kicks to average up to 35 MPG on the highway. On a combined loop, it would also average up to 31 MPG.  

Another feature Motor1.com praised on the 2025 Kicks is its available ProPILOT Assist. A feature that is not offered in this size class, the manufacturer’s next-level driver assistance system that inspires confidence on the road. 

Nissan brand’s commitment to safety and driver assistance does not stop there. Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard across all trims. This suite of features includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Rear Automatic Braking, Blind Spot Warning, and other standard features.

Where the 2025 Kicks really shines is in its overall value. While you get a lot on the S model, stepping up to the SV trim offers more features, technologies, and comfort. This model includes wireless smartphone integration, making life easier, along with a larger infotainment screen, a digital instrument cluster, and plenty of creature comforts made for longer trips out of town. 

The 2025 Kicks is a great combination you have been waiting for. Value is what drives this well-equipped, efficient, and capable small SUV. If this is the right SUV for your lifestyle, contact us at Dick Smith Nissan of Columbia to see one soon!
