The cargo room is the standout. My only gripe is the touchscreen climate controls, which I knew going in.

2026 Nissan Kicks review
Nissan Kicks: a sensible pick with a few compromises. Illustrative review
7.5/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Nissan Kicks is a reasonable choice if the price is right. Roomy second row and flexible cargo floor; easy to see out of and park. Engine gets loud under hard acceleration and third row (where offered) is for kids, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $24,000, it undercuts most direct rivals.
