2019 Subaru Crosstrek vs. 2019 Nissan Kicks
The 2019 Subaru Crosstrek is among the most highly favored subcompact SUVs in its class. With updates included in this new model, it has focused more on providing safety features that drivers can rely on. There is also plenty of cargo space and has a well-crafted interior.
The 2019 Nissan Kicks tried to take things into a different level by offering a model that has a larger cargo area than before. It has a long list both for standard and safety features.
Design & Style
Keeping you more relaxed in a sporty atmosphere, the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek has focused more on ways on how to design the car so that drivers and passengers will feel comfortable all the time. With an exterior design built with elements of modernity, and ruggedness, you are sure to please anyone’s eyes who chances upon this car when you decide to own one. Inside this car, the use of upscale materials gives it a boost.
With standard cloth upholstery inside, the 2019 Nissan Kicks is said to have a pleasant interior. There is plenty of space to seat five people comfortably as well. It has to be noted, however, that the presence of hard plastics in the cabin make the ride a little bumpier and more uncomfortable than usual.
Technology & Safety
Also giving you a worthy investment, is the set of technologies that the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek offers. You will find the inclusion of a 6.5-inch touchscreen working to the advantage of its Starlink infotainment system. Add to that, this car has the four-speaker stereo system, and is fitted with smartphone integration capabilities. The EyeSight safety suite includes rear cross traffic alert, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control, among all others.
When it comes to the Nissan Kicks, you will find a seven-inch touchscreen panel to support its standard infotainment system. There are three USB ports, a Bluetooth interface, and a six-speaker audio. Upgrading is possible but with a price. For your safety, automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and a rearview camera are only the standard features available.
Performance
The 2019 Nissan Kicks gets a total of 122 horsepower for its four-cylinder, 1.6-liter engine which has been paired with a continuously variable transmission. This is 30 points lower than the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek’s 152 horsepower, as produced by its four-cylinder engine.
The Bottom Line
With an engine that is obviously more powerful than that of the 2019 Nissan Kicks, the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek is the real winner in this battle. Do not forget how it has been made to include a lot of design elements for modern-day car drivers. Also, you must think about the long list of technology and safety features that you will enjoy. This proves that you will get your money’s worth by investing on the Crosstrek.
