The mid variant at 1.3m pesos I think thats the best value for what you are getting. The rainbow shots looks amazing btw

I'm inclined to agree, although you do lose a couple of stuff like the 360 cam, 6 speakers, leather seats, fog lamps and automatic headlamps, the VL variant might still be a good buy for some people!

I like your way of reviewing. You show both positives and negatives about the car for a balanced review. Also, I get bits and pieces of additional info and insight that I don't get from other video reviews. This is compared to the other, bigger automotive channel which I am also a fan of, but I think he is very safe and careful with his reviews. Anyway, keep it up and more power to this channel! I've just subbed.

Would have been nice if Nissan provided a way for charging the battery from household electricity. I'm not talking about the powerful hi-amp fast chargers like those in pure EVs but just to provide a simple charger that could help raise at least a bar, esp if the car would not be used for several hours while parked at home. Grid electricity is still cheaper than gasoline.

Is the aircon depends on the gas engine? If you are stuck in heavy traffic does the air conditioner runs cool even if the gas engine is not running? Will the air conditioner cools even in electric mode?

I know what you mean, you're asking if the AC get's weaker and warmer on electric mode and I'm happy to say that the answer is no. The compressor of the AC seems to rely on the electric motor and not from the internal combustion engine. It still gives you Nissan's classic cool AC :-)

Yeah you're right. The setup itself is inefficient. Imagine the losses of the engine AND any losses in the electric motor adding up. But the regenerative braking really make up for many of the losses. That's why I think this would really be comparatively very efficient in urban stop-and-go situations where you could take back many losses through several slowdowns.

thanks for that great review. Do you recommend this as a first car? My reason to have a car is I'm soon to be married, and the main purpose would be during holidays, event, and weekend, instead of having to commute. So not so much of an everyday drive. and we live within the metro. Having zero experience in cars, the negatives you mention might not bother me, I guess.

It's pricier than the usual first car options, but going future-proof in a hybrid isn't a bad idea. On the other hand, a hybrid's gas savings are more easily recouped (over years) with daily use which is not your purpose-maybe the most important factor for a weekend car would be the size and if the Kicks is big enough to accommodate your future family then!

sir if in case the motor gen wouldnt function.. then what will be an option to make the car runs? unlike with the corolla cross.. it can switch from gas to battery. meaning if the battery gets drained then the gas automatically shifts in.
@ZigWheelsPhilippines
Жыл бұрын
This is a great question! The Nissan Kicks runs on purely electric power. The internal combustion engine has nothing to do with propelling the car forward except to charge the electric motor, unlike other hybrids where the gas engine works with the electric motor. Think of it like a gasoline generator inside an EV, so you don't have to recharge or plug it in. In the off chance that the gasoline engine dies or the electric motor goes kaput, the Kicks won't run. Thankfully, that's what warranties, PMS and maintenance is for in a brand new car :-)

You don't need a manual for this since there is no transmission. The torque is pretty much instantaneous from the get go that putting it in sports mode transforms it into a little pocket rocket.
