One thing, and it’s a real one: the new Rock Creek grade. Everything else carries over — same 2.0-liter engine, same body and dimensions, same 12.3″ standard touchscreen, same Safety Shield 360, same best-in-class cargo space and 8.4″ ground clearance. Prices moved by about $60 at the base. If you liked a 2026 Kicks, the 2027 is the same car with one more grade to choose from.

It’s a new-for-2027 grade built on the SV with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive standard, priced at $28,840. It adds an exclusive upper grille, gloss-black exterior trim, mirrors and lower fascias, amber daytime running lights, 17″ black alloy wheels, and a cross-bar roof rack rated to 165 pounds. Inside: TailorFit synthetic leather seating and steering wheel, heated front seats and mirrors, ambient lighting, Rock Creek floor mats, and an HD Around View Monitor with parking sensors. It also gets an exclusive Off-Road drive mode and Hill Descent Control.

Here’s the honest answer: it’s a styling and drive-mode grade, not a lifted trail vehicle. Ground clearance stays at 8.4 inches — the same as every other Kicks — the tires are the same all-seasons, and there’s no added underbody protection. What you do get is standard all-wheel drive, an Off-Road drive mode, Hill Descent Control, and a roof rack that carries real weight. For Chicago winters, gravel campground roads, and a bike rack on the roof, it’s plenty. For rock crawling, it isn’t the vehicle — come talk to us about the Nissan Frontier instead.

The Kicks uses a 2.0-liter four-cylinder making 141 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque, paired with an Xtronic CVT. It’s naturally aspirated, not turbocharged — tuned for smooth, efficient around-town driving and up to 35 MPG highway.

Yes. Intelligent AWD is available on the S, SV, and SR, and comes standard on the new Rock Creek. All-wheel-drive models add a Snow drive mode, which makes a real difference on unplowed Chicago streets in winter.

A front-wheel-drive Kicks offers up to 30 cubic feet behind the second row and up to 60 cubic feet with the rear seats folded — best-in-class for a subcompact. All-wheel-drive models, including Rock Creek, give up 23.9 / 50.1 cubic feet to make room for the rear drive components. Rock Creek’s cross-bar roof rack adds another 165 pounds of carrying capacity up top.

We stock a range of Kicks trims, colors, and drivetrains at our Skokie showroom, minutes from Evanston, Niles, and Chicago’s North Side. If we don’t have your exact configuration — including a Rock Creek in the color you want — we can usually locate it within 48 hours.

Yes. Our in-house financing team works with a network of lenders, including options for bad or no credit. With the Kicks being one of the most affordable new vehicles we carry, it’s often a great fit — and you can get pre-approved online with no impact to your credit score before you ever visit.

Every new Kicks includes a 36-month/36,000-mile basic warranty and a 60-month/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Ask us about adding our Premium Plan for lifetime synthetic oil changes and tire rotations, carried out by factory-trained techs in our Skokie service department.

For value, it’s one of the strongest picks in its class. The Kicks pairs an affordable price, up to 35 MPG, standard Safety Shield 360, best-in-class cargo space and ground clearance, and a standard 12.3″ display on every trim. It’s been recognized as a budget and dependability standout, and for most Chicago-area drivers it’s an easy, low-cost crossover to live with.

With regular maintenance, a Kicks can commonly reach 200,000 miles or more — roughly 13 to 17 years of typical driving. Staying on top of oil changes and routine service is the biggest factor, which is where our Premium Plan helps.

No — the Kicks is a five-passenger subcompact crossover and doesn’t offer a third row. If you want more room but still five seats, step up to the Nissan Rogue; for true three-row seating for seven or eight, look at the Pathfinder or Armada — we carry all three.

Not in the U.S. — the 2027 Kicks is gas-only, with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder that still returns up to 35 MPG highway. If you want an electrified Nissan, ask us about the all-electric Nissan LEAF or the Rogue Plug-in Hybrid.
