Nissan begins production of “all-new” Kicks e-Power in Thailand

The new Nissan Kicks e-Power is getting closer to the Philippines. Already confirmed for our market, production for the heavily updated electrified subcompact crossover has just started over in Thailand.

While we may not be getting the second generation Nissan Kicks which markets like North America already have, this one that we’re getting still gets a significant amount of updates, unveiled at the recent 47th Bangkok International Motor Show (BIMS). 

And while it’s still the same generation, the new Kicks e-Power is still described as “all-new” by Nissan. New is its almost completely redesigned exterior that features split headlights, sleeker taillights, a larger lower grille, and new wheel designs, along with a more modern dashboard and added tech.
