Pare, I've owned the Kicks since launch and must say yours has the best review of any local content creator because it ticks all the boxes on what I love and have issues with the Kicks after nearly 600 days and just 15000 Km. A true city driver built for Metro Manila crap traffic.

[@lostwanderingdrifter]

Looking forward to this! 😍

[@ivanvillarruz8412]

For those who have bought a HEV, were you told or is it on the manual on how long the battery's lifespan is and how much is the replacement? Based on my research, it is around 160k-250k kilometers before it needs to be replaced. Replacement cost is around 100k pesos.

[@lostwanderingdrifter]

This thecquestion I needed answered but nobody seems to talk about. Thank you for enlightening us.

[@bernscjavier]

According to nissan salesman, battery lifespan is around 8-10 years and replacement costs around 300k.

[@paolosy1293]

I agree. The only problem is the lack of spare tire and the slightly cramped interior space.

[@MrKockabilly]

Thanks for sharing. But you haven't mentioned that the Nissan Kicks' 3-cylinder engine cause more vibrations/noise than the usual 4-cylinder engines which is more noticeable during idling - at least that's what I heard from other reviewers. Would have been interesting if you have any comment on this.

[@ReygansRides]

The gasoline generator has the vibration and noise associated with 3-cylinders, but after a while, you get used to it. But the Kicks generator does not idle, the gasoline motor shuts down when you are idling.

[@usbankusa]

In Thailand, we normally use B mode when driving uphill or downhill.

[@ReygansRides]

Perfect use for B mode!

I hope Nisaan Philippines will also bring X-Trail E-Power to PH Market.

[@ReygansRides]

Same here. 😊👍

[@beedeefan]

Kuya Reygan, do you recommend this for grab car for having fuel efficiency? and pwede nga ba?

[@dachosenone207]

The initial investment is quite steep. For transport biz much cheaper cars w/ decent FE is preferred. You are against time kasi the faster the ROI the better since bumababa ang Value ng car mo. Also maybe in the future your car maybe opt out of the system coz its too old

[@amantupar888]

Nice video Sir, I wonder how much would I spend if battery goes dead after 3 or 5 years. How much would a owner of this vehicle will spend for battery replacement ang service? Thank you for uploading this video.

[@sneakerhappy35]

Ngayon ko lang nalaman na ang hybrid car ay exempted sa number coding

[@ReygansRides]

Glad to inform!

[@erniecortes5453]

if i have a nissan kicks i will get a spare donut tire. given the road conditons here having a damaged tire on the road is always possible. last month a got one at edsa at that serivice road ortigas by the time i passed crossing it was flat.luckily i was the gas station where i asked for assistance. my car is a toyota rush and has a normal spare tire. my rear left tire was hit by a 4inch 8mm rebar so it went flat pretty fast.

[@micobtacastacas2300]

Hi, I have not tried any electric cars yet. But we all know that in a standard car (with an internal combustion engine), when you are cruising and you release the pressure on the gas pedal, the car would be "free-wheeling" and there's no braking that would happen. If the Kicks is set in regenerative braking, you get that sort of braking feel the moment you release the pressure on the gas pedal. So in that sense, there's that constant deceleration, right? In my ignorance, I would tend to think that it might be a bit annoying, especially on the part of your passengers (let's say they're asleep while you're on a long drive and there's that constant braking pressure every now and then)? Kindly describe this particular aspect of driving on the Kicks. Thank you.

[@ReygansRides]

You get used to it after a while.

[@caesaremmanuelnavarro3233]

how about those issue nila about the ac na basa ko kasi sa nissan group page na yan yung issue nila kasi hindi na gumana yung ac nila in the long run sana ma solve yung issue kasi pati daw sa casa is hindi nila alam pano yun ma reresolve

[@lostwanderingdrifter]

Hi sir how is it at the 100kph region and at the more *fun* speeds? I read somewhere that it struggles over 80 kph? Would you be able to chime in on that?

[@francismoses]

This is not true. Nakikipag karerahan ako sa SLEX at TPLEX. Iniwan ko lahat sila. 😅

[@lostwanderingdrifter]

I imagine the economy took a hit? Good to know that this ride is no slouch. 😍

[@ReygansRides]

It can definitely pull in the fun speed zone. 😉

[@lostwanderingdrifter]

I saw other reviews mentioning a dramatic power taper off after 110kph. Is it that bad?

[@aportsetivac8023]

Pwede maya ilusong sa baha yan?

[@corolla9545]

This is good but I prefer a hybrid vehicle that have both gasoline and electric motor connected to the powertrain, because if one breaks or troubled, you still can go home.

[@krishjasonramos1617]

Unfortunately, it doesnt work thhat way. Even with conventional hybrids, if one fails, the car no longer functions.

[@SelectStart89]

I believe the Honda CR-Z does that. Unfortunately, it's already discontinued. Drove one which my sister owns, fun to drive. The caveat is it's not a family car. Since the interior space is too small.

[@r1tol251]

Yan ang totoong hybrid di tulad nung iba dyan na pretender lang hehehehe

[@erniecortes5453]

nissan should provide spare donut tire as an option. cant avoid Murphy's law ie if anyhing could go wrong , it will.....like a boy scout be prepared sa taagolog laging handa

I hope no more comments and updates about upcoming japanese EVs (bz4x, ariya) here in the Philippines. No tax exemption for japanese EVs. BYD, Hyundai/Kia, Tesla and other non japanese EVs is better

Yes, next month na darating sa dealers yung Kia EV6 GT-Line at Hyundai Ioniq 5.

Im your fan Sir..but saying" Traffic in Manila is a nightmare " minsan kailangan nyo maging maingat sa vlogs nyo ..FYI ung Department of Tourism has the theme.."Its more fun in the Philippines " pero ung vlogs promotion nyo is contrary to our DT theme..just Saying!

[@ReygansRides]

Just sharing the truth, my friend. My channel would lose credibility if I don't share the truth, regardless of the Tourism Department's marketing push. (Btw, those traffic shots at the start were all taken in 1 day, after filming the Kicks. Those are not stock videos.)
