2025 Nissan Kicks

Nissan redesigned the 2025 Kicks compact SUV--now larger, more powerful, and available with all-wheel drive. We put its driving performance to the test, evaluate its active safety and driver-assistance features, and discuss whether or not its "upscale" design elements deliver on the hype. Plus, we answer questions about our favorite infotainment systems and offer advice before buying extended warranties and maintenance contracts.   More info on the 2025 Nissan Kicks here: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/suvs/2025-nissan-kicks-review-a9588794667/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Ratings and test results on every car CR purchases and tests: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT     SHOW NOTES ----------------------------------- 00:00 - Introduction 00:15 - Overview: 2025 Nissan Kicks 01:16 - Price 02:24 - Interior and Styling 04:02 - Driving Performance 05:18 - Competition 10:10 - Nissan 11:51 - Question #1: What are the best and worst car infotainment systems on the market today? 17:38 - Question #2: What is CR's advise regarding extended warranties and maintenance contracts?     ----------------------------------   First Drive: 2025 Nissan Kicks Grows Into Feature-Rich SUV https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/suvs/2025-nissan-kicks-review-a9588794667/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   2025 Nissan Kicks https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/nissan/kicks/2025/overview/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   10 Cheap Cars That CR Recommends https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/cheap-cars-recommended-by-consumer-reports-a1059266229/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Best New Cars and SUVs for Under $30,000 https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/best-new-cars-under-30000-dollars-a6574737993/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Popular Compact Cars to Avoid and What to Buy Instead https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/buying-a-car/popular-compact-cars-to-avoid-what-to-buy-instead-a1188453224/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT     ----------------------------------- Join CR at https://CR.org/joinviaYT to access our comprehensive ratings for items you use every day.
