2018 nissan kicks for sale in kirkland tacoma seattle washingtonChilly temperatures and pouring rain didn’t dampen the 2018 Nissan Kicks at the 26th annual Texas Auto Writers Association (TAWA) Texas Truck Rodeo. Rather, the newly launched vehicle rose to the occasion and drove off with not one, but two awards: “Compact CUV of Texas" and "Best Value."
 
"Making its debut appearance at the Texas Truck Rodeo, we are thrilled to have the all-new Nissan Kicks named 'Best Value' and 'Compact CUV of Texas' – a category loaded with competition," said Dan Mohnke, Senior VP, Sales and Marketing & Operations, Nissan Division U.S. in a press release. "With its dramatic styling, personal technology, intelligent safety, efficient powertrain and strong value positioning, Kicks is a natural choice in the great state of Texas."
 
Unveiled earlier this spring, the 2018 Kicks has become a customer favorite with its practicality, fuel efficiency and cool styling. It is offered in three well-equipped grades (S, SV and SR) and boasts a 125-horsepower 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood, which makes 115 lb-ft of torque. A continuously variable automatic transmission and front-wheel drivetrain is standard and boasts an EPA-rating of 33 mpg combined.

Award season is upon us in the automotive industry and one of the biggest honors on the global scene is the World Car Awards. The contenders for the 2019 World Car of the Year were just announced at the 2018 Paris Motor Show and we are thrilled to announce that the all-new Nissan Kicks made the cut!
 
The Kicks was recently launched as a replacement for the now-defunct Juke and is aimed at the value-seeking audience that’s in search of a unique ride that’s all their own. Since its release, it has made waves with automotive journalists and drivers alike, who hail the Kicks for its affordable purchase price, spirited performance, good looks, and roomy interior with 25.3 cubic feet of cargo space.
 
The Kicks is currently offered in three well-equipped grades (S, SV, SR) with pricing below the $20K mark. All models feature a front-wheel drivetrain with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, delivering 125 horsepower and 115 lb-ft of torque. All of this comes mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission, which is rated for 33 mpg combined. The Kicks Color Studio also allows owners the ability to modify the crossover by selecting vibrantly colored interior and exterior details.
 
 
Winners of the World Car Awards will be announced at the New York International Auto Show on Wednesday, April 17, 2019. In the meantime, you can learn more about this top contender by scheduling a test drive in a Kicks crossover with our team at Kirkland Nissan in Seattle, Washington.
new nissan kicks for sale in tacoma kirkland seattle washingtonOftentimes car shoppers come into our dealership and head straight to our preowned inventory simply because they assume their budget won’t be adequate enough for a new vehicle. And even though there is no shame in buying a quality used car or truck, it is nice for shoppers to have some choice. 
 
In Nissan’s line-up, that vehicle is the 2018 Kicks. The Car Connection recently reviewed this all-new platform and dubbed it the used car alternative that “wafts its eau du voiture nouveau toward budget-conscious shoppers, luring them away from the preowned lot to the main showroom.”
 
But, truthfully, the Kicks has more to offer than just its new car smell, zero mileage and full warranty. With a starting price under $20,000, drivers also benefit from its incredible performance and full suite of standard features. 
 
The 2018 Kicks runs on a 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder engine, which puts out 125 horsepower and 115 lb-ft of torque. A continuously variable automatic transmission with a front-wheel drivetrain is also standard across the board, which is rated for 33 mpg combined. 
 
At the base level, the Kicks S will fetch you the latest in-car convenience and comfort features, which can be hard to find in used offerings. This includes a 7-inch touchscreen, Siri Eyes Free integration, three USB ports, and Bluetooth connectivity. A rearview camera further bolsters the Kicks’ equipment, along with a six-speaker audio system delivering premium sound. Safety features also include automatic headlights, hill start assist, and a forward collision warning system with automatic braking.
 
Before you settle for a preowned vehicle well-beyond its warranty period, consider test driving a new 2018 Kicks from Kirkland Nissan in Seattle, Washington. Our team can help you select the trim level to suit your budget and review your financing options. Call us today to get started!
Expect more from the highway experience. With the release of the 2018 Kicks SV, Nissan is bridging the gap between efficiency and comfort - pairing a lean hot-hatch body (169-inches long, 69-inches wide, and 62-inches high) with a suite of premium upgrades. Compromise is no longer a word within the Tacoma lexicon.


According to Kelley Blue Book, the 2018 Kicks proves a worthy successor to the Juke. Its compact form promises easy maneuverability and class-leading economy (31 MPGs in the city and 36 MPGs on the highway). More impressive, however, is the inclusion of the SV trim - which boasts a bevy of top-tier features.

Exterior

The 2018 Kicks now rests on 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, ensuring a sporty effect; while power side-view mirrors counter Tacoma’s fickle weather with their multi-level heating technologies. Wide-angle blind spot sensors further enhance the platform, assessing roadways and passing vehicles alike with radar precision.

Interior

An Intelligent Key system anchors this Juke-inspired platform, enabling drivers to control the engine, locking functions, and automatic climate controls with the press of a button. An integrated cargo cover waits in the expansive rear hatch (32.3 cu.-ft); and the media center has been fused with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality, accommodating every smartphone download with ease.

The 2018 Kicks SV allows drivers to (finally) enjoy their highway commutes. To learn more about this Nissan hatchback contact our dealership today!
