If you live and work in Findlay, then you probably know the value of having a great compact vehicle to get around town. With its wonderful collection of parks and museums, there is so much to see here, making it a great place to live. So many of your fellow Findlay residents commute to work in nearby Toledo, which is why many Findlay motorists look for vehicles that provide exceptional fuel economy, as well as other features. Since 2018, Nissan Kicks has offered drivers a smaller alternative to buying a full-size SUV while still providing impressive space and performance in a compact design.
This subcompact SUV gives you a surprisingly roomy interior with the fuel economy you love, whether commuting to work or school or simply going for a quiet afternoon at Riverside Park. For 2025, the Kicks has received a new makeover to begin its second generation. Best of all, with a base MSRP of $21,830, the Kicks gives Findlay drivers access to an affordable SUV packed with great features. The place to go to get your 2025 Kicks is Reineke Nissan. We are your premier Nissan dealer near Findlay, with the full lineup of Nissan cars, trucks, SUVs, and EVs. We are a family-owned and operated dealership, meaning that you will get the personal service you want, making each Findlay driver feel like part of our family.
Faster and More Powerful
Each 2025 Nissan Kicks features a 2.0-liter I-4 gas engine paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). This has a dual overhead cam (DOHC) configuration, with 16 valves for its four cylinders. This delivers an impressive 141 hp and 140 lb-ft of torque using direct fuel injection. This is a major improvement over the powertrain featured on the first-generation Kicks. This was a 1.6-liter I-4 gas engine with a CVT that delivered only 122 hp and 114 lb-ft of torque. While fuel efficient, this powertrain left something to be desired when it came to performance.
The new Kicks continue the model's tradition of providing excellent fuel economy. The front-wheel drive Kicks will give you 31 MPG in combined fuel economy. You also get the option of all-wheel drive in the Kicks, a new feature of the second-generation model. This will give you improved traction, especially in inclement weather. The all-wheel drive Kicks also has a solid fuel economy, averaging 30 MPG in combined fuel economy. One sure way to get your kicks is the speed and acceleration in the 2025 Kicks. It can go from 0 to 60 mph in 9.5 seconds. While this won't set any speed records, it will still make it easier for commuters to merge onto I-75 in rush hour traffic.
More Cargo and Passenger Space
Nissan has given the 2025 Kicks a larger and bolder profile than previous models. Its front end features a very modern grille with a set of futuristic LED headlights. Each of the three trim levels gets a trim-specific set of wheels, giving each a unique appearance. The SV and SR trims also offer premium two-tone colors, allowing you to choose a color for the roofline to compliment the one on the body.
When you open the door to the Kicks, you will be struck by the spaciousness of the interior. While the Kicks is a subcompact SUV, this appears to be in name only. You will have plenty of room for up to five passengers, making the Kicks a great choice for a young family. Imagine the fun you will have taking the whole family out for some weekend fun. In fact, the 2025 Kicks has 42.7 inches of legroom in the front and 34.5 inches of legroom in the back, so the only kicks you will get are driving the Kicks and not from one of the kids seated in the back.
The 2025 Kicks also gives you much more trunk space than the prior model. In fact, you can get up to 30 cu.ft. of cargo space in your Kicks, significantly more than the 25.3 cu.ft. of space in the 2024 model. When you fold down the rear 60/40 bench seat, this will give you an incredible 60 cu.ft. of space, the most ever offered in a Kicks model. This makes it ideal for shopping trips downtown or to one of the malls near Findlay.
Packed With Must-Have Tech, Both Inside and Out
Technology is the name of the game with the 2025 Kicks, and Nissan has made sure to give this model all of the latest innovations. Each Kicks comes with a NissanConnect infotainment system. While the S and SV trims have a 7-inch multi-function information display screen like the 2024 model, the top SR trim on the 2025 Kicks has a sizable 12.3-inch screen, larger than the 8-inch one featured on the SR trim last year. All NissanConnect systems have the Siri Eyes Free program, which uses voice recognition to make hands-free commands.
When you link your phone using Apple CarPlay, you are able to respond to texts and make calls, all using voice commands. The SV and SR trims have wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so you can stay connected even if you have left your charging cables at home. These models also have a wireless charger in the front console, so you and your passengers can keep your devices charged when out on the road.
Nissan has also used technology to keep you and your passengers safe while driving in your Kicks. This is important to Findlay parents and grandparents who may be taking the kids out for a day of fun. Each Kicks has a set of standard Nissan Safety Shield 360 safety and active driver assistance features. The Forward Collision System will warn you of an imminent front-end collision so you can take evasive action, while the Automatic Emergency Braking will help bring you to a safe stop or mitigate any damage that may occur if a collision is unavoidable. There is even a Front Pedestrian Detection system that works in the same manner at lower speeds, helping to prevent your Kicks from colliding with a pedestrian or cyclist.
One of the most common highway accidents occurs when you go to change lanes. There is often another vehicle riding next to you that you cannot see in traffic because it is in your vehicle's blind spot. The 2025 Kicks is one of the few models in its vehicle class to offer standard Blind Spot Warning. This will alert you to any vehicle riding next to you when you signal to change lanes.
A lapse of concentration while driving can also lead to an accident. This is why each Nissan Kicks has the Intelligent Driver Alertness system. This will detect if you are losing focus from fatigue based on your driving behavior. If this happens, the system will advise you to pull over and take a break. One of the consequences of driver fatigue is drifting into an adjacent lane. If you lose focus and this happens, the Lane Departure Warning will sound, alerting you to the need to get your Kicks back into lane.
Some of the technology on the 2025 Kicks is designed to improve your driving skills. The Intelligent Cruise Control is a form of adaptive cruise control. You set a speed, and the system will adjust this based on the traffic in front of you. If traffic slows down, so will the system. Once traffic has cleared, the system will return you to your desired speed.
The 2025 Kicks also has a standard Rear Sonar System. This will help guide you into parallel parking spots. There is also a Rear Cross Traffic Alert with Rear Automatic Braking. This will detect vehicles and pedestrians you can't see in your rear vision camera, and will apply the automatic brakes so you can avoid an accident.
