Nissan Kicks showcased at 2016 Bogota Auto Show

The Nissan Kicks is based on the Nissan V-Platform that underpins the Nissan Sunny, Nissan Sentra, Nissan Note and even the all-new 2017 Nissan Micra. The V-Platform's key aspect is its versatility; it can accommodate customer requirements of all RHD and LHD global markets demanding diesel or petrol engines with Euro 3 to Euro 6 ratings without development or cost or any weight inefficiencies.

The Colombian-spec Nissan Kicks measures 4.29 metres (~4,290 mm) in length, 1.76 metres (~1,760 mm) in width and 1.59 metres (~1,590 mm) in height, and has a wheelbase of 2.62 metres (~2,620 mm). It packs the HR16DE 1.6-litre petrol engine that produces 118 hp and 149 Nm of torque and can be paired to either a 5-speed manual transmission or the XTRONIC continuously variable transmission. Front-wheel drive drivetrain configuration is standard.

The Nissan Kicks will be available in two grades in Colombia: Sense and Advance. The Sense grade features roof rails, power mirrors, 4-speaker sound system with Bluetooth connectivity, parking sensors (rear), ABS with EBD and dual-front airbags. The Advance grade adds LED daytime running lights, fog lamps, keyless entry, push-button start and 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay.
