    I bought one as my kid's first car. I'm surprised how light it is at 2700 lbs. It's 200 lbs lighter than a 2020 Corolla.

    Also the bigger grill of the Kicks in the previous posts should be the 2021 Kicks here where I am.

    The 2020 Kicks has a 1.6L I-4 with 122 HP. 0-60 mph comes at 10 seconds. I don't think the engine will be stressing the CVT that much. It won't see uphill mountain roads or even freeways either. It's strictly a city car and I think the Kicks will do fine.

    The kid is helping pay for it and the insurance. It'll help build up her credit score.

    Oh. I'm still suspicious with the CVT. I still think my choice (Mazda CX-3) would have been a better peace of mind.

    I guess it's better she got the Kicks. If she got the CX-3, I'll be driving it too. He He.

    i'm not really worried about the cvt for the next 200,000km or miles equivalent. those chicanos rebuilding them are pretty damn sharp.

    in my neck of the woods, we don't have these trained techs or master mechs.

    their camera-based aeb's are pretty damn good too.

    No info on these chinese vehicles. Though It will have the same fluids as other cvts and oils. I hope the powertrain warranty is 10yrs like that of Koreans.

    I think he is talking about Korean brands in the US specifically.
    America's Best Warranty


    The Korean brands here offer only 5 years. Kia with 160k kms mileage limit while Hyundai has unlimited mileage.

    Looking back at my experiences with gas mileage vs longevity...... I prefer longevity. I hope I get at least, 10 years with the Nissan Kicks. My wife's Rogue is 7 years old. 3 more years to go.

    My first 4 vehicles never even reached 10 years before I got rid of them. The first car I owned that lasted beyond 10 years was my 1995 Ford Contour SE (13 years). Then, my 2006 Hyundai Sonata lasted 14 years before I gave it away.
