2021 Nissan Kicks Performance Features
The 2021 Nissan Kicks boasts Nissan’s new e-Power technology that combines a 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine, a 1.57 kWh battery, and an electric motor. Unlike most hybrids, the 1.2-liter engine acts as a generator for the battery, delivering a driving experience similar to an EV. Combined, this setup generates 127 horsepower. We're not expecting the e-Power tech to carry over to the US model, though. In the US, the Nissan Kicks is powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine producing 122 horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque.
