  • The 2023 Nissan Kicks is currently one of the most unique vehicles in the Philippines. Priced between 1.2-1.5 million pesos, it is a lot more affordable than other Electric vehicles, Hybrids and PHEVs. However its powertrain is unlike any EV or hybrid vehicle on Philippine roads right now. The wheels are 100% driven by an electric motor but the battery is charged by an internal combustion engine. This allows it to have an impressive fuel consumption of 22.5kpl in the city and 24.1 in the highway.
    The Nissan Kicks VL is the top of the line variant of the Kicks. In this video, we'll do a Full review, testing its acceleration, 0-100 time, its highway fuel economy, city fuel economy. And we'll try to demystify this unique vehicle

    I'm quickly realizing that you're among the best local auto reviewers. I like how you include comparisons vs other cars, plus your own tests backed by data and enriched with your sensible insights. Most other channels tend to be only video brochures. Kudos and keep it up bro.

    Nice video!
    This Nissan looks pretty nice and futuristic but it just looks like a Almera but Hybrid. I like the features of the Almera which also is in the leaf but compare to its competitors like the Ford Territory, Geely Coolray, MG HS, and etc, the price is pretty decent and understandable since the fact it is a hybrid. Though I wish that they just made the speedometer full digital.

    Yeah these EV's and hybrids sounds promising especially this nissan kicks the fuel economy is insane. Just 2 reason that may stop me for embracing this technology. The flood during rainy season and the battery cost when the car aged. Nice review though sir very detailed and informative 👌

    • @jaywalkur
      @jaywalkur  ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Thank you. On average, EVs do a bit better than regular gas or diesel engines in flooding situations because as a safety requirement, batteries are designed to be sealed from water. With that said, no vehicle is flood proof and the kicks having an internal combustion engine also has the same limitations as other internal combustion engines. But you definitely don't have to worry about getting electrocuted when it rains or in normal flooding situations.

    TU Jaywalker for an excellent visual..touch..and driving impressions video here,
    Realistic observations! I'm on the fence whether to get a new gasoline powered decently fuel efficient vehicle a hybrid hopefully next year. I think I will see who has done a review on hybrid Toyota products out there now..see how they all measure up!
    Regarding a gas powered subcompact SUV I like what little of what I've seen on the redesigned JAC S4 ..two models..Intelligent and the Ultimate?..varient,
    Can you get a hold of one and do a video analysis..including fuel economy numbers also and overall impressions? If so I think maybe will be drawn to your You Tube post on it..since very little coverage yet
    MAYBE DUE TO no real inventory here in the Philippines yet? LOL

    Hydrogen,Ammonia engines are also being produced now.What makes you think E-Cars are the way to go?Imagine if all those billions of cars around the world plag into the grid.Where is that extra electricity going to come from?Nuclear,fossil?The best option are Hybrids that will give you a great electric range,which is what most people will be happy with.So far you have Hybrids that can give you an electric range of around 50-100 klm.Thats will cut down on emissions immensely.
