The Nissan Kicks, all puns aside, shows that Nissan India isn’t throwing any punches any more. The Kicks is a redesigned and re-engineered version of the internationally popular SUV, but just for us. It’s meant to be a more premium alternative to their Terrano SUV, and it packs in a few segment firsts to uphold that claim. Under the skin, it’s a mix of some of the best of what we’ve come to expect from cars of the Renault-Nissan alliance. But it’ll really have to be something special to take the fight to the segment leader from Hyundai, the Creta.
