The statistic proves staggering - with critics staring at a collection of numbers, expressions poleaxed and thoughts perplexed. The 2018 Kicks (which will serve as the successor to the Juke when it arrives in Seattle this fall) secures one sale every 10 minutes in Latin America. This delivered approximately 58,000 total units in 2017; and it should yield a similar number by this year’s final quarter.

Why is this calculation so important to Washington critics? The Kirkland team has the answer: they’re using it as a gauge for the Kicks’ stateside success.



According to Web Wire, the 2018 Kicks has generated massive numbers in Latin America (particularly in Brazil, Argentina, and Chile). This platform averages 6.5 sales every hour - ranking it among the region’s top performers. Drivers have responded to its bold style and peppy powertrain, with demand rising every month.

That demand should follow the Kicks to Washington when it makes it debut later this year. Boasting a 1.6L 16-valve four-cylinder engine, this Juke replacement yields a sprightly 125 HP and 115 lb.-ft of torque. An XTronic transmission provides crisp handling, while electronic stability and traction control anchors the FWD (ensuring nimble handling around every curve). A twist-beam suspension promises all-terrain responses, blending shock absorbers with stabilizer bars; and all-season tires adapt to any road with ease.

The 2018 Kicks delivers premium everyday performance - making it perfect for Seattle commuters and back-trail thrill-seekers alike. To learn more about this crossover contact our team.
