The 2023 Nissan Kicks is available in three trim levels—S, SV, and SR—and starts at $20,290, less than our competitor's starting price. The starting MSRP is one of the most important determiners of a vehicle's popularity, as most families want to purchase a model that goes easy on the pockets. The 2023 Nissan Kicks emerges as the unambiguous winner in this area.
Furthermore, while both the SUVs have similar drivetrains, the Kicks also has better fuel economy ratings on the highway than the Kona. This means you get more miles out of every gallon of gas on the Kicks while cruising through highways.
Another crucial area where the 2023 Kicks one-ups the 2023 Hyundai Kona is that the former's entry-level trim comes with standard rear automatic braking. This feature is not available on the base trim of the Kona. You get more standard safety features with the Nissan Kicks compared to the Hyundai Kona.
