When we first got behind the wheel of the Nissan Kicks, we discovered a quickness and level of content we had not expected for its low price tag. Now, Nissan is changing the formula ever so slightly. The subcompact crossover returns for its sophomore year with a small increase in price and a little less power.
The 2019 Nissan Kicks starts at $19,535 for the base S model. That’s up $200 from last year. Standard features include automatic emergency braking, three USB ports, push-button start, keyless entry, Bluetooth, roof rails, and automatic headlights.
Despite the price hike, the base Nissan Kicks is still a good deal. Competitors have higher starting prices, including the 2019 Hyundai Kona ($20,970), Toyota C-HR ($21,990), Mazda CX-3 ($21,385), and Honda HR-V ($21,515).
The SV adds essential goodies, such as Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and automatic temperature control. The mid-level trim starts at $21,245, up $210. At the top of the lineup is the SR, priced from $21,865, up $230. LED headlights and special exterior and interior trim set the model apart, and buyers can still splurge for the Premium package with an upgraded Bose sound system and other features.
The Kicks was originally rated at 125 hp and 115 lb-ft. But for 2019, Nissan says the 1.6-liter four-cylinder makes 122 hp and 114 lb-ft of torque. We’ve reached out to Nissan to find out why this is the case. Fuel economy remains 31/36/33 mpg city/highway/combined.
