2 Answers
The ground clearance of the Kicks is 191mm. The Kicks is a compact SUV under Dongfeng Nissan, with dimensions of 4295mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1588mm in height, featuring a wheelbase of 2620mm. The Kicks adopts Nissan's signature V-motion grille paired with dynamic headlights, presenting a sporty front fascia. The side profile incorporates the popular floating roof design. It features family-style taillights and a black plastic rear bumper. This model is equipped with an HR15 1.5L naturally aspirated engine delivering a maximum power of 124ps.
Regarding the ground clearance of the Kicks, I remember it's around 188mm. When I drive this car myself, I find this height particularly suitable for both urban and rural road use. When encountering speed bumps or uneven road surfaces, the body doesn't bounce too much, nor does the chassis get easily scraped. Once, I drove on a gravel road, and it passed steadily without any worry of damaging the vehicle. This also gives it a greater sense of security in bad weather, such as during rain on waterlogged road sections, as it can avoid the risk of flooding. Additionally, after discussing with friends, the 188mm height is quite economical because it's not too high to significantly increase wind resistance and affect fuel consumption, nor too low to easily cause accidents. During routine maintenance, just checking the chassis protection is enough, which is quite hassle-free. In summary, this design is quite reasonable, making driving both comfortable and reliable.
