2022 Nissan Kicks Review

Kick It Up a Notch

The proper goal-scoring kick needs the proper amount of power behind it and so does the 2022 Nissan Kicks. This crossover is ready for action with a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine under the hood that delivers a peppy 122 horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque—perfect for zooming down the field.

When you’ve left your big game at the Avon Soccer game and are heading over to Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt for a celebratory treat, you won’t need to make a pit stop to refuel. Fortunately, the Kicks earns an EPA-estimated 31 city/36 highway MPG to keep you zipping around town longer.

Meet Your New Teammates

While you may be the star of the show, you know you’re nothing without your defensive all-stars. Meet the lineup in the 2022 Nissan Kicks:

• Automatic Emergency Braking—When the other team is approaching, your defensive midfield acts as your first line of defense in keeping the ball away from the goalie and so does this feature. It let’s you know when an opponent is approaching your car and you’re too close. Then, it applies the brakes to help avoid frontal impact.
• Lane Departure Warning—Do you ever wish there would be an alert on the field when you’re approaching the side lines and about to go out of bounds? Well, that’s exactly what this system is. It lets you know when your Kicks is leaving your intended lane, so you can stay on track.
• Rear Automatic Braking—Just as a sweeper is the last defensive measure before the ball reaches the goaltender, this system is your last line of defense. If you’re too close to a rear obstacle, this feature will spring into action and apply the brakes for you to help prevent a rear collision.
• Blind Spot Warning—Think of this system as your half-backs flanking either side of your crossover when traveling the open road. It lets you know when another car has been detected, so you know when it’s safe to make a lane change.
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert—Picture this alert as your left or right full-back defending you from all sides. As vehicles approach your car when in reverse, this defender will step in to warn you, so you can pull out of a parking space with complete ease.
