Nissan Kicks e-Power Review - Should This Be Your First Electrified Car? (w/ English Subtitles)

[@allencruise6299]

Kayo lang ang nag explain in detail ng e-pedal's regenerative breaking. Kudos mga bossing!

[@alexanderrelveria]

This is a good first step on owning on a pure electric plug in electric vehicle Though, that this electric vehicle is using its own electric generator to charge its motor you are still experiencing the usage of electric vehicle without worrying where to charge The only difference is that you still need to top up gas same as regular ICE engine But there will be savings because you are using pure electric rather than hybrid (electric +ICE)to run the car

[@jemramos321]

Bring the rest of the e power line up here and nissan will have an incredible niche market foundation that will put them as one of the top brands here in the philippines.

[@MrKockabilly]

I like it when the display panel of the head unit is embedded and flushed with the dashboard. Unlike in other cars where the monitor is sticking out above the dashboard where it seems like an after thought.

24:00 Hindi 100% ang babalik na energy using regen braking. Nasa 50-70% lang. Yung iba macoconvert talaga sa heat.

kasama po sa nawala from VL to VE is 360 camera view and two-tone exterior look. tama po diba? bali: Auto-headlight Leather seats Fog Lights Moving Object Detection 360 camera view Two-tone exterior pa-correct po kung mali :)

Good review. Question on economy. What is the gas tank size? What range can you expect to get per tank of gas? Size of the battery? Thx

nahirapan ako sa video ngayon kasi ang gloomy ng weather, hindi masyado makita yung interior ng likod. and madilim yung video overall 😢 sana next time may pailaw haha

[@olegarioclemente6132]

Sayang at the price range ng VL trim, Nissan ph removed other premium features as well as other Nissan intelligent mobility features found in the Kicks Autech version, the premuim version in Thailand which btw is a little cheaper than the top trim VL version in the Phils.😞

[@Bangbangboom51]

Again, huwag na po natin itanong kung ilang kilometers ang full charge nito. Hindi po ito EV and hindi din po ito tatakbo kung hindi tatakbo yung generator/engine niya. Para saan yung battery? It is a small battery and can almost be considered more like a power capacitor for those instant high power and torque delivery pag sinagad niyo accelerator. In the end, same lang ito sa other gasoline vehicles though yung gasoline engine niya acts more like an electric generator and it mostly runs on very low rpm hence the high kilometers per liter rating. Tumataas lang ang engine RPM pag na enough yung voltage/wattage stored in the battery packs. Take note din na 5yrs lang warranty ng battery packs niya. So expect resale value to dive if you are planning to sell it after 5yrs of ownership.

[@randel8737]

Correction, it can run on full electric even without the ICE turned on. I ran up to around 70kph before the ICE turned on again at 75% battery charge. It’s also not the same as other gasoline engines and it does not in fact run at a low rpm. Its idle is at around 1400 which is higher than normal idling. But you are correct about when it needs power the engine revs higher to compensate with the charge loss during hard acceleration. Also someone tested sagad on our circle. The battery alone can run up to 10km on the highway (75% to 0%). That’s probably around 3-5kms on a normal usage.

[@Bangbangboom51]

Ay salamat naman so safe estimate in real world usage is it can run 7 to 8kms on a full charge battery? Kaya pala Nissan wouldn't publish the range on a full charge. Sayang din na mataas RPM ng genset engine niya. It could probably run at a slighlty lower rpm to save more fuel?

[@randel8737]

@@Bangbangboom51 i’m guessing kaya high rpm para mabilis din mag charge ang batt and to keep the system at normal running temp. Kaya din hindi inaadvertise ni nissan yung battery range because it’s insignificant eh, too small. Kaya bida rin ng other hybrids with same batt capacity is yung full range as a whole car.

[@pakaplogin2010]

@@Bangbangboom51 Like all ICE engine, it all depends on its efficiency vs power curve at a particular RPM. So I presume in this particular engine, depending on its power demand, it's programmed to run on its most efficient rpm.

[@sgb523]

update: 8 years na po ang battery warranty :)

[@guessassters]

The Kicks is using the same battery that the Nissan Leaf uses when it was launched in 2011. I know a few owners of Nissan Leafs and the battery is still pretty much the same (probably a bit less than 100% of course) after using for 11 years already. So let that sink in to you for a moment.

[@louievillacarlos1]

​@@guessassters this is good news kasi im planning to get the VL. However some comments I read sa US statistics, 3 to 5 yrs lang battery ng leaf. Thats why im a bit worried if I will push it thru or not. Please enlighten me po. Thanks

[@guessassters]

@louie villacarlos take into consideration that the Leaf is pure EV than the Kicks, so charging the battery of the Leaf requires you to plug it in which makes battery degrading faster than charging it with an ICE thru Series Hybrid Power (which the Kicks uses) Lithium Ion Car Batteries tend to have a lifespan of 8-10 years or even more depending on how you use it.

[@leoflores1907]

At sa palagay ko magpoprovide ang nissan ng system para ma convert sya sa full electric. Papalitan lng ung combustion engine ng pang saksak na sa electric for charging. 🤗😅 advance lng mag isip. 🤗🤣

chara!

[@thetrustysidekick3013]

The interior is a problem. As the part of the car where you will be spending the vast majority of your time, the interior is very disappointing, especially at the price range Nissan is asking for. Heck for the amount of money Nissan is asking for the top trim, you could stretch a bit and get a hybrid Mazda 3 that not only is fun to drive but also has an incredible interior.

[@ly8682]

Agreed. 💯

[@shdala111]

That is a warped assessment of the price. Mazda's hybrids are just mild hybrids and are no way comparable to Nissan's e-Power tech. Nissan's current variants are rightly priced for what you get with e-Power onboard. You can wish for a higher trim model (like they have in Thailand with the Autech version) but expect it to have a higher price point.

[@thetrustysidekick3013]

@@shdala111 I'm just saying if you're intent on saving fuel AND also be in a space which looks and feels nice, get a Mazda 3 hybrid instead.

[@shdala111]

@The Trusty Sidekick I just wanted to clarify that comparing e-Power and Mazda's mild hybrid is not teally an apples to apples comparison thus your assessment on the Nissan's value proposition is not spot on. Just wanted to point that out so other prospective buyers will not be misled with that comparison. The interiors of the Mazda are better, so if you value that more, then go get the Mazda. For me, the Kicks' interior is adequate, and I am happy to have e-Power at this price point. It really is a unique drivetrain, much better if you can do a test drive for you to see how different the experience is from conventional ICE/hybrid cars.

[@thetrustysidekick3013]

@@shdala111 It's basically a generator on wheels so it is technically using fuel. I would prefer a real EV. The Kicks is inadequate, unfortunately, but at least Nissan is trying. I would prefer to not pay for fuel anymore, but that's not happening in the next 10 years in this country.

[@adrianjason13]
