5 Awesome Features of the 2020 Nissan KicksThe Nissan Kicks has a sporty exterior style, a spacious cabin for a subcompact crossover SUV, and excellent fuel economy. For the 2020 model year, Nissan updated the Kicks, adding Safety Shield 360 to all trim levels. Nissan also made several other safety features standard throughout the lineup and added a rear-door alert to the SV and SL trims. These updates, along with many other awesome features, make the Kicks an ideal vehicle. 

Safety Shield 360

All the 2020 Kicks now come standard with Nissan’s Safety Shield 360. This group of safety systems includes forward collision warning, an automatic braking system that works when you go both forward and backward, a radar-based blind-spot monitor, automatic high beam headlights, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane departure warning.  

Optional Safety Features

Some Kicks trims offer the option to add even more safety features. A surround-view parking camera gives the driver a glimpse of everything around the vehicle, and a drowsy driver monitor will send an alert if the driver isn’t paying full attention to the road. 

The Bose Stereo System

The top-level Kicks SR offers drivers the option to have a Bose Personal Plus stereo system. Bose designed this innovative eight-speaker system specifically for small vehicles. Two of the speakers are UltraNearfield and sit right in the driver’s head restraint for an immersive sound experience. The door speakers have a more conventional spot and focus on the lower range. Thus, there’s no need for a subwoofer in the car, which ultimately saves valuable space.  

The Kicks also has sound settings for Bose PersonalSpace, a feature that allows the driver to shift the sound from narrow to wide and back with just a turn of the dial. 

The Spacious Cabin

The 2020 Kicks has room for up to five passengers, and both rows have supportive seats that keep you comfortable even on long rides. The Kicks boasts more than 25 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, and with the rear seats folded down, the area opens up to 53.1 cubic feet. This is more space than you get even in some larger vehicles. A sizable glove box provides a place to keep small items that need to stay out of sight, and the spacious door pockets upfront offer additional storage options. 

Choose the high-end SV trim for a leather-wrapped steering wheel, simulated leather trim on the dash, and the option for heated front seats and Nissan’s Prima-Tex simulated leather upholstery. 

The Technology

A 7-inch touch-screen display comes standard in the base Kicks S, along with three USB ports, Bluetooth, a media player interface, Siri Eyes Free, and an auxiliary jack. The SV adds the NissanConnect infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and satellite radio, plus the option to upgrade to an eight-speaker Bose stereo.
