With a length of 171.9 inches and a width of 70.9 inches, it strikes a balance between maneuverability and spaciousness, making it an ideal fit for neighborhoods in St. Augustine or downtown Jacksonville.
Powering the KICKS SR is a 2.0-liter DOHC 16-valve inline-4 engine carefully engineered with an aluminum block and head, delivering 141 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 140 lb-ft of torque at 4000 rpm.
