The brand-new 2025 Nissan Kicks compact crossover has been revealed worldwide with official pictures, and it will make its first appearance at the New York Motor Show. Nissan describes its design as being inspired by trendy sneakers, giving it a cool urban look.
This latest model is bigger than before and shares some similarities with the Mitsubishi X-Force SUV sold in certain countries like Indonesia. The 2025 Nissan Kicks will come in three versions – S, SV, and SR – with two Premium packages available.

Under the hood, it boasts a 2.0-litre inline-four-cylinder engine paired with the new-generation Nissan Xtronic transmission. This engine is praised for its strong torque at low and mid-range speeds, providing a power output of 141bhp and 190Nm of torque. For those looking for an extra traction, there is an optional Intelligent AWD system with a Snow Driving Mode.
The new Nissan Kicks has a broad stance and noticeable fenders, which gives it a more square-shaped look, especially towards the bottom of the front. Some design features, like the roof and doors, remind us of the XForce SUV. Upfront, you will find LED headlights placed horizontally, along with a signature grille surrounded by a black finish. The compact crossover also sports bold wheel arches with matte black cladding, large 19-inch alloy wheels, and distinct LED tail-lights integrated with a black trim spanning the tailgate’s width.
