When you’re searching for a subcompact SUV that blends city-smart dimensions with comfort, fuel economy and tech, the 2025 Nissan Kicks at Bob Bell Nissan makes a strong impression. The team at our Nissan dealership in Baltimore, MD is proud to showcase this updated model that competes directly with rivals like the 2025 Mazda CX-30. While the 2025 Mazda CX-30 brings sporty vibes and turbocharged options, the 2025 Nissan Kicks offers incredible value, class-leading features, and a confident daily driving experience designed for modern lifestyles. Keep reading to discover how the 2025 Nissan Kicks rises above in more ways than one.
One look at the 2025 Nissan Kicks at our Nissan dealership in Baltimore, MD confirms it’s built for bold expression. A sleek roofline, sculpted body, and chrome grille give it an assertive presence on city streets. LED headlights are standard, and higher-level trims add eye-catching details like a sport rear spoiler, heated side mirrors and roof rails. For drivers who crave even more personality, two-tone color options and 19-inch wheels are available.
The 2025 Nissan Kicks interior features a thoughtfully designed cabin that’s both spacious and flexible. Even base models at Bob Bell Nissan include a 60/40 split rear seat and a generous cargo area for weekend errands or road trips. Cloth upholstery, automatic climate control, and a versatile center console keep the experience practical, while top-tier trims enhance comfort with heated front seats, sport leatherette surfaces, and ambient interior lighting.
By contrast, the 2025 Mazda CX-30 leans toward upscale styling, offering a polished front grille, and a more coupe-like silhouette. Inside, it delivers quality materials and available leather seats, though rear passenger space and cargo flexibility fall short of the 2025 Nissan Kicks. For drivers prioritizing usability and interior room in a subcompact package, the Nissan Kicks subcompact SUV takes the lead.
The 2025 Nissan Kicks delivers just what urban drivers need: peppy performance with impressive fuel economy. All trim levels are powered by a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine producing 141 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth Xtronic® CVT. Choose between front-wheel drive or available intelligent all-wheel drive for added grip during Baltimore’s rainy or wintry days.
What truly sets the 2025 Nissan Kicks apart at our Nissan dealership in Baltimore, MD is its efficiency—achieving up to 36 MPG on the highway in front-wheel drive models. It offers a nimble, composed ride perfect for navigating tight streets and busy traffic.
On the other hand, the 2025 Mazda CX-30 starts with a 2.5-liter engine that generates more horsepower—191 to be exact—but returns lower fuel economy and uses a 6-speed automatic that feels less refined. Though Mazda offers a turbocharged variant for performance enthusiasts, it comes at a premium cost and with reduced fuel economy, averaging only 30 MPG on the highway.
The 2025 Nissan Kicks provides peace of mind with a robust list of standard safety features. Every configuration at our Nissan dealership in Baltimore, MD includes the Nissan Safety Shield® 360 safety suite, which offers forward collision warnings, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, rear automatic braking, and blind-spot warnings. You’ll also find rear cross-traffic alerts, lane departure warnings, and high beam assist included without the need to upgrade trims.
For drivers looking to enhance their visibility, an intelligent around-view monitor is available, offering a 360-degree bird’s eye view to simplify parking and tight maneuvers. The 2025 Mazda CX-30 also comes equipped with an extensive safety suite, including radar cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and lane-keep assist. However, advanced features like a 360-degree camera and traffic sign recognition are only available on top-notch trims, making them less accessible for value-conscious shoppers.
From entry-level to premium trims, the 2025 Nissan Kicks interior delivers modern tech for busy lives. Standard features include Apple CarPlay®, Android™ Auto, Bluetooth®, USB ports, and remote keyless entry. A 7-inch color touchscreen and instrument display keep you informed and in control.
Step up to premium configurations at Bob Bell Nissan in Baltimore, MD for a 12.3-inch infotainment display, a 12.3-inch digital driver display, and wireless smartphone syncing. Tech lovers can also enjoy wireless charging, remote engine start, and a premium Bose® Personal Plus audio system with headrest-integrated speakers—an unexpected luxury in this segment.
The 2025 Mazda CX-30 is equipped with an 8.8-inch infotainment display and standard smartphone integration. While available upgrades include a 12-speaker Bose® system and a head-up display, the interface relies heavily on a control knob, which may feel dated or distracting for some users. The touchscreen-forward layout within the 2025 Nissan Kicks interior is more intuitive for modern drivers who expect smartphone-like functionality on the go.
