2024 Nissan Kicks: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2024 Nissan Kicks is a true carryover with no major changes. It closes out the original Kicks generation before the redesigned 2025 model arrived.
About the 2024 Nissan Kicks
1st generation (2018-2024), final year before the all-new 2025 redesign.
Nissan positions the Kicks as a small, city-friendly SUV with bold styling, easy maneuverability, strong fuel economy, and a useful amount of everyday tech and safety equipment. It is aimed at shoppers who want the upright seating and cargo flexibility of an SUV without stepping up to a larger, heavier crossover. The Kicks stands out more for style, parking ease, and standard safety features than for power or off-road ability.
The S is the straightforward commuter, with a 7-inch touchscreen, smartphone integration, and a standard driver-assistance suite. The SV adds useful everyday upgrades such as an 8-inch touchscreen and adaptive cruise control, while the SR brings LED lighting, a 360-degree camera, and sportier trim without changing the engine.
