A compact SUV sized for city streets and road trips
Drive a Kicks
If you want a Nissan rental that's easy on gas and easy to park, the Kicks makes a strong case. Its 2.0L four-cylinder engine returns up to 31 mpg combined (FWD), and its small footprint slides into tight city spots. You still get seating for five.
On Turo, you book your Nissan Kicks SUV rental from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Each listing shows the trim and options, so you can match the Kicks to your trip.

Big-screen tech in a compact package
Every 2026 Kicks comes with a 12.3-in screen plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Your maps, playlists, and messages appear on a big, clear display once your phone connects — no cables cluttering the console. That means less fiddling with your phone and more attention on the road ahead.
Cabin and cargo space for weekend bags
The Kicks gives you up to 30 cu ft of cargo space behind the rear seat. Fold the rear seats, and that grows to 60 cu ft. That's room for a couple's weekend luggage, a stroller and a cooler, or a big grocery run with space to spare.
Inside, five seats give a small family or a group of friends room to ride together. If you're packing for a full car, plan to travel light or fold part of the rear seat. These cargo figures apply to FWD models, so check the listing photos if you book an AWD Kicks.
Safety Shield 360 driver-assist tech
Nissan Safety Shield 360 comes standard on the 2026 Kicks, bundling six driver-assist features. Automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection watches the road ahead. Rear automatic braking helps when you're backing out of a tight spot.
Blind spot warning and rear cross traffic alert help on busy highways and in crowded parking lots. Lane departure warning flags drifting, and high beam assist switches between high and low beams for you on dark roads. You're still in charge, so keep your eyes up and your hands on the wheel.
Stand out with a Kicks
The Kicks is a subcompact (small) SUV, and it's a smart pick for city trips, weekend getaways, and couples or small families. You get an SUV's seating height and cargo flexibility without the bulk, which makes downtown parking and narrow streets far less stressful.

Top Kicks features
Up to 31 mpg combined
The Kicks earns its keep with strong fuel economy, available all-wheel drive, and available Bose headrest audio.
The front-wheel-drive Kicks returns 28 mpg city, 35 mpg highway, and 31 mpg combined. AWD models land close behind at 30 mpg combined, so you don't give up much for the extra traction. On a road trip, fewer gas station stops leave more time for the places you came to see.
In the city, the 2.0L four-cylinder engine and CVT keep stop-and-go traffic smooth and frugal. Planning a long weekend or a multi-stop road trip? The Kicks lets you spend less on gas and more on the trip itself.
Available Intelligent AWD for wet and snowy roads
The Kicks offers available Intelligent AWD, which helps you keep your grip when roads turn wet, slushy, or snowy. That added traction brings extra confidence on a winter ski trip or a rainy drive along the coast. Paired with 8.4 in of ground clearance, the Kicks handles snowy driveways and slushy parking lots with less fuss.
AWD isn't standard, so you won't find it on every listing. If you're traveling somewhere with winter weather, check the listing details for AWD before you book. Traction helps you get moving, but you'll still want to slow down and drive for the conditions.
Available Bose headrest audio
The available Bose Personal Plus audio system adds headrest speakers, so your music, calls, and navigation prompts sound close and clear. It's part of the SR Premium Package, which means you'll find it on select Kicks listings. Pair it with wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, and your road trip playlist streams straight from your phone.
If sound quality matters on a long drive, look for the Bose system in the listing's features or photos. Availability varies by listing, so confirm the details before you book if it's high on your list.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Kicks
Get to know your Kicks
Before you book a Kicks, check the listing for trim, drivetrain, and features, then plan your packing and budget around your trip length.
The second-generation Kicks, redesigned for 2025, comes in multiple trims, and the features you get depend on the listing you choose. Look for details like Intelligent AWD and the Bose headrest audio system so you know what you're driving. Check the model year too, since standard features can differ between years.

Kicks driving tips
A few simple habits make your Kicks trip easier:
Ease into the throttle and let the CVT deliver smooth, steady acceleration.
Connect your phone before you pull out so Apple CarPlay or Android Auto is ready on the big screen.
Use the compact size to your advantage in parking garages and tight street spots.
Fold the rear seats before you load bulky bags to make the most of the cargo area.
How much does it cost to rent a Kicks?
The cost to rent a Kicks varies by location, dates, and trim, because local vehicle owners set their own prices. Search your dates and destination to see current prices for Kicks rentals near you.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
