Larger SUV, Turbo Engine and Refreshed Look: Arriving in June to Try to Conquer the Brazilian Market
Nissan has made it a point to invest significantly so that the new Kicks is truly competitive in the Brazilian market! In its second generation, the SUV has increased in size, coming close to the dimensions of the Jeep Compass, which is a reference in the category.
The look has also changed, becoming stronger and more modern, with a redesigned front grille and vertical LED lights that give a special highlight to the front of the car. At the back, a black strip connects the LED taillights, reinforcing the contemporary style of the model, according to the AutoEsporte website. Check out the news below!
New Look, Beefier and More Modern
The Nissan Kicks has a more imposing front, the grille now has horizontal bars divided and the headlights have gained vertical LEDs that give it a more “aggressive” look. At the back, a black strip connects the taillights, adding a modern touch, but without exaggeration.

The 2026 electric Vitara arrives in Brazil and proves that Suzuki is not leaving: 4×4 traction, 184 hp, 61 kWh LFP battery, 293 km range, R$ 259,000, and a trunk capacity of 224 L.

Hyundai has unveiled the Boulder, a square SUV with a body-on-frame design, 37-inch mud tires, and carriage-style doors that seems to be made to take on the Ford Bronco and the Scout Traveller in the United States.

The Toyota Hilux is R$ 75.5 thousand cheaper and bets on the 2.8 turbodiesel engine with up to 204 hp and 50.9 kgfm to catch up with the VW Saveiro, which leads with 4,472 sales.

The new Renault Koleos has a screen exclusively for the passenger that is invisible to the driver, heated rear seats, and 29 assistance systems, but its Chinese competitors cost R$ 40,000 less and deliver more power.
Inside the Nissan, there’s plenty of legroom — great for taller people — and the finish is a mix of leather and fabric, which makes the car beautiful and comfortable. There’s an armrest with cup holders and USB-C to charge your phone, which we can’t live without.
But there is a catch: there is no air vent for the back seats, and this might make a difference, especially in the heat. The T-Cross, direct competitor of the Nissan Kicks, already offers this convenience.
The “Great Surprise” of the New SUV Kicks
The “trump card” of the new version of the SUV Kicks is the 1.0 turbo engine, the same one used in the Renault Kwid. This engine delivers good performance and also contributes to fuel economy, adding a sporty touch during acceleration, something many consumers value! All this innovation is crucial for the brand to stay aligned with competitors, who are already betting on this turbo technology to offer more performance.
New Kicks Arrives in June — and the “Fight” Will Be Good!
The Kicks SUV will arrive in Brazilian stores in June. With its larger size, smart engine, and updated look, Nissan aims to secure a spot in the sun against the Compass and T-Cross. SUV enthusiasts have a reason to keep an eye out.
