2018 Nissan Kicks vs 2019 Nissan Kicks

Two adjacent model years of the Nissan Kicks, side by side. Every figure is a raw NHTSA/EPA count — not normalised by how many were sold.

Side by side: identical recall campaigns (1 each), and 2018 Kicks has fewer recorded owner complaints (83 vs 133). Only 2019 Kicks has NHTSA crash ratings, and both have EPA fuel-economy data.

How to read this

  • A green check marks the lower raw count — fewer recorded issues, not a declared winner.
  • Complaint totals are not normalised by vehicle population; a big-seller shows more of everything.
  • Where a rating or EPA record is absent, that is missing data — not evidence of safety.
