The redesigned 2025 Kicks is larger, more powerful, and for the first time, offered with all-wheel drive. Its length increased by 3 inches, and nearly every other dimension has expanded by 2 inches, to the benefit of passengers and cargo space. All versions pack a 141-hp, 2.0-liter inline-four engine with a continuously variable transmission. Each trim is available in front- or all-wheel drive. The trim walks from a rather basic S, to a nicely equipped SV, and on to the sporty-looking SR. Due to its evolution, the Kicks is now competing among subcompact SUVs. It stands tall there with a robust suite of active safety and driver assistance features as standard equipment. ProPilot Assist is available, adding steering assistance and lane centering to ease some driving stress on the highway and in traffic jams.
