The Nissan Kicks is already available in international markets, however, the India-spec will come with larger dimensions overall and will be very different from the ones on sale outside. The company recently revealed the exterior of the Indian-spec Kicks SUV. The SUV comes with the signature V-grille at the front, along with a wide central air dam, sweptback headlamps and fog lamps.

Nissan is yet to reveal the powertrain which will be used on the Kicks SUV. However, it is expected to carry forward the same petrol and diesel engines as seen on the Terrano. This includes a 1.6-litre petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel unit. Nissan is also expected to offer an automatic transmission on the Kicks right from the time of launch.
Thoughts On The Nissan Kicks Bookings
The Nissan Kicks bookings have begun. The company hasn't had the best sales figures in the Indian market. However, with the launch of the new Kicks, Nissan hopes to turn things around and attract customers towards the new product. Once launched in India, the Nissan Kicks will rival the likes of the Hyundai Creta, Jeep Compass and the upcoming Tata Harrier as well.
