The side profile of the 2024 Nissan Kicks presents a sleek and smooth roofline. It is complemented by a generous glass area that enhances visibility all around. The body-mounted ORVMs (Outside Rear View Mirrors) add to the vehicle's streamlined appearance. While the alloy wheel design remains hidden under the camouflage, it is adopting a new diamond-cut styling with a fresh pattern. However, it is just the beginning of the testing phase and things are bound to change as the trials progress.
Inside the 2024 Nissan Kicks, a completely new dashboard design awaits. Along with a fresh steering wheel and an upgraded infotainment system, likely featuring a larger display for improved user experience. Furthermore, the increased size will result in a bigger boot space, offering enhanced storage capacity for luggage and belongings.
What's Happening Under The Hood?
Talking about the engine, there are no concrete pointers as to what is going on inside. But a newer unit is on the cards. The outgoing Nissan Kicks was offered in a variety of engine options in the global market. For the Indian market, customers had the choice of a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine delivering 106 PS of power and 142 Nm of torque. Additionally, a more powerful 1.3-liter turbo petrol version, churning out an impressive 156 PS of power and 254 Nm of torque accompanied it as well.

Still, looking at these initial spy shots, the SUV looks promising. It remains to be seen if the brand brings this one to India or not.
