The automatic version of the Nissan Kicks utilizes a CVT transmission, while the manual version is equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox.

As a compact SUV under the Nissan brand, the Nissan Kicks has a wheelbase of 2620mm and dimensions of 4295mm (length), 1760mm (width), and 1588mm (height).

The CVT transmission is a relatively simple automatic transmission system, consisting of two bevel gears and a steel belt. The steel belt of the CVT allows for effective movement between the bevel gears, enabling smooth gear shifting and torque transmission.

Additionally, the CVT transmission exhibits good smoothness during shifting and is known for its reliability and durability. The Nissan Kicks is powered by a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with the code HR15, providing a maximum power of 90kW and a peak torque of 143Nm, with a maximum power RPM of 6300 and a maximum torque RPM of 4400.

This engine features multi-point fuel injection technology and employs aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The front suspension is a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension. The MacPherson suspension is favored for its simple structure, compact size, and minimal space usage, while the torsion beam suspension is a common type of non-independent suspension.
