Santa Maria Nissan shoppers looking for a subcompact crossover that’s the perfect urban runabout should take a close look at the 2020 Nissan Kicks.

From SLO to Santa Maria The Nissan Press Readers Confirm
Motor Trend gave the 2020 Nissan Kicks high marks, writing: “The Kicks is an excellent example of a well-equipped, fuel-efficient, great-driving economy car. ... [T]here's a lot to like here. It's downright pleasant to drive. The cabin is light and airy, which does wonders for outward visibility. There's more steering feel than most of its competitors, ride quality is excellent, and despite its meager engine, the low curb weight of the Kicks means it rarely feels underpowered.”
Step inside the 2020 Nissan Kicks, and you’ll find a comfortable cabin with NASA-inspired zero gravity seats and lots of room for the driver and passengers. The driver’s right-side armrest is a nice touch that you don’t often see in a vehicle with an economical price tag. Drivers appreciate the standard 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system.
There’s lots of room for cargo. The Kicks has 25.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats. With the seats folded, there’s over 53 cubic feet of space.
The Nissan Kicks features bold exterior styling that impresses without being flashy. The Kicks’ floating roof design is enhanced by the blacked-out window pillars. The SV and SR models have an available white or black roof. The base Kicks S trim rides on 16-inch steel wheels, while the SV and SR get standard 17-inch aluminum alloys. The SR gets a rear roof spoiler, and all models come with roof rails.
