"The Kick's interior styling and makeup is a mixed bag - there are plenty of hard plastics in this Nissan, but it doesn't look or feel cheap. The overall design is fairly sleek and modern, and the interior remains quiet even when cruising at highway speeds" -Cars.usnews.com
At the starting of the review, we discussed how the Nissan Kick's affordable pricing in the subcompact class makes it an appealing car, but the price cut is seemingly visible in the average interior quality. The 2020 Kicks boasts comfortable seating and space along with a modern and sleek interior design. The seats are inspired by the "Zero Gravity" structure which makes short drives and day-to-day errands a truly comfortable proposition.
There are custom adjust armrests for both driver and passenger and the second-row seats have a 60/40 split function. The rear seats can easily seat 2 grown-ups but seating 3 abreast won't be the most suitable choice.

The seats have contrast stitching and have decent padding for people to be comfortable on short trips. The hard plastics on use, however, tend to justify the pricing of the Kicks as they don't make the cabin look premium from any angle. At 25.3 cubes, the cargo space is another stronghold of the Nissan Kicks. Fold the seats as per the 60/40 configuration and that space multiplies to a whopping 53 cu.ft.
Nissan hasn't made many changes to the infotainment system of the 2020 Kicks. With the base Kicks, you will get a standard 7-inch touch screen, a six-speaker audio system, three USB ports, Bluetooth, and Siri Eyes Free. However, upgrading to SV or SR adds a NissanConnect infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, an eight-speaker Bose audio system, and satellite radio.
