Rumour: Nissan Kicks to be launched in January 2019

According to a media report, the Nissan Kicks is likely to be launched in India in January 2019.

Reports suggest that the India-spec Kicks will be slightly different from the one offered globally. The interior space is expected to be increased and more features could be offered.

The Nissan Kicks is based on the M0 platform, which is shared with the Renault Captur and Duster. The car features a V-shaped grille and a dual-tone bumper with fog lamps. The rear gets boomerang-shaped tail lights and a raked windshield. The car has flared wheel arches and a floating roof finished in a contrasting shade. 

On the inside, the Kicks comes with a dual-tone dashboard with a touchscreen infotainment system, a 3-spoke multi-function steering wheel and a twin-pod instrument cluster.

It has been reported that the India-spec Kicks will be offered with a choice of petrol and diesel engines. These are likely to be the same set of engines that are offered on other Renault-Nissan group products like the Terrano, Duster and Captur.

The Nissan Kicks will compete with cars like the Hyundai Creta and Renault Captur in the Indian market.
