2025 Nissan Kicks SR AWD Walkaround + Driving Impressions | Feature Packed But...

In this video we take a look at the all new 2025 Nissan Kick SR AWD subcompact SUV plus take it for a drive and give you my initial driving impressions. The Nissan Kicks starts in the low $20k price range but tops well over $30k fully loaded like seen in this video. For that price, it comes very well equipped but as we see (and hear) it does have some NVH that makes its way into the cabin. The Kicks interior is very nice for a subcompact SUV and it has a competitive feature set although some competitors offers the same (or more) equipment in the class. Is the Nissan Kicks a vehicle you would consider for the price? Let me know in the comments below!

Justin…always love your content. Would love a video with you sharing your story…your background….how you got into this field….. You are so great on camera. Do you have a radio or tv background? Thanks for your great work. Gotta get your sub count flying. You are worth it.

I listened to the test drive of a RAV 4 and a Chevy Trax and a Honda 2025 CR-V. They all sound the same. it is the cameras picking up road noise. My 2023 Kicks is relatively quiet on the expressway. I would need to take the new Kicks for a test drive to see what it sounds like compared to my car to know anything for sure, but I'm happy with my car, so I won't be doing that any time soon. Everything works great on my car, and it was cheaper than the 2025. I like some of the new features on the new Kicks and compared to other cars in this segment, it is competitively price, but I don't need those features to get me where I need to go.

Hey Justin, a while back i commented on one of your videos. I said that I just watched the most coherent, informative car reviews ever, and now i can unsubscribe from all other car review channels. Now, i want to know where you hide the script from which you are reading from. How on earth do you remember all of the details about every car you review???? What's your trick? Just amazing.

Nissan if you made a hybrid option you would be crushing it!!

[BoopSnoot]

Do you think its just horrible lack of noise insulation, or a really loud wheel/tire package? Wonder if the AWD SV with the 17" fixes it... Overall, sounds like the Buick Envista might be a much better option for most, ya?

I had a Kicks S, 2022 until Saturday night, drunk driver totalled it... Nissan really addressed all my complaints of the one I had however I will go see Ford and check if they have any Mavericks Hybrid in the lot first. Might even go see Subaru for Crosstrek. If all else fails, I'll go see Nissan. It was great on gas, and nimble but I wasn't in love with it. It was already showing rust and the droning CVT was a bit much!

I wanted to like the new kicks, but he said exactly how I felt. It was loud, I was shocked how much noise came into the cab, and power is just ok around town it wasn't good on the interstate.
Lol, after hearing him make excuses for the lack of acceleration, maybe because I'm running the air? Really. Then he kept saying it's not that bad. For $32, 000 it shouldn't be described by not bad. Swing and a miss by nissan...Test drive Mazda30, Subaru, Toyota, they are much better in there own ways.

I just went to the Nissan website and they say the Kicks is DIRECT INJECTION and NOT naturally aspirated. That means carbon can build up and cost you a small fortune in years to come. The kicks is the third noisiest car on the road. So they have made it look pretty but they should have put in some sound deadening material. Also, you will find that the prices for each version is far TOO high. Nissan has a HUGE amount of inventory and they are still NOT giving you a break on pricing. Check it out for yourself.

No power drivers seats? I'll pass on this one. And it needs a bigger engine

CVT and Nissan just says stay far away from this.
