The key factor that makes Nissan Kicks very fuel-efficient in urban areas is that when driving at low speeds, the car almost only uses the electric motor for propulsion while the gasoline engine acts as a power generator to charge the battery. (The car is equipped with a 3-cylinder gasoline engine, 1.2L displacement, maximum electric motor power of 136 horsepower and maximum torque of 280 Nm, 2.06 kWh battery pack and automatic transmission).
In addition, the Nissan Kicks e-POWER 2023 also saves fuel thanks to its regenerative braking system to assist in charging the battery and the e-Pedal driving mode. Simply put, this system converts kinetic energy, thermal energy, and inertia generated during braking into electrical energy to charge the battery.
In addition to the astonishing fuel efficiency in urban areas, Nissan also impresses with its rugged and dynamic design, comfortable interior, and relatively full range of safety equipment.
In the latest version, the Nissan Kicks has dimensions of 4295 x 1760 x 1585 mm (length x width x height) respectively, with a wheelbase of 2,610 mm.
