    Nissan Debut The Kick at Sao Paulo Motor Show

    Drawing inspiration from the colourful Brazilian culture where it was developed, Nissan launched the “Kick” crossover concept at the Sao Paulo Motor Show this week.

 

Drawing inspiration from the colourful Brazilian culture where it was developed, Nissan launched the “Kick” crossover concept at the Sao Paulo Motor Show this week. Featuring similar design aesthetics to the Juke and EXTREM, the “Kick” is the outcome of global collaboration and is expected to retail globally in addition to South America if, of course, the concept moves towards commercial production.

The “Kick” is pitched as the realistic market version of the EXTREM, again a vehicle born from the streets of Brazil and built to represent the character of a nation, designed for its people. A prominent stance with aerodynamic lines, the crossover sits on large alloys that presents an energetic car ready for all driving challenges.  The V-Motion grille is vital to start the fluid and adaptable motion the car wants to achieve, creating a flowing effect that inspires both durability and speed. Delivering a duality of both style and substance, a truly exciting and innovative outcome is presented that remains loyal to Nissan’s creative ethos. Check out what you think in the launch video below!

Finished in satin liquid titanium with pops and bursts of Rio sunset orange, the “Kick” is compact with an alleviated ride height perfect for both urban driving and covering the vast distances of the South American continent. Noticing a distinct difference between the colour of cars on Brazilian roads and those displayed by the exuberant nature of the country’s culture, Nissan decided to reflect this in the colour scheme of the “Kick”. Blending both the grey tones of urban Sao Paulo and the bright natural colours of the Rio sunset, this combination achieves a uniquely Latin American style that oozes both flair and practicality. Flashes of colour on the alloys, skid plate and roof echo the energy found on the streets of Brazil and crafts a bold statement for automotive design on a whole, indicating the future of Nissan product design and development.

Launched as the centre piece of the Nissan stand, the Kick Concept will be on display until November 9th

  • Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

    We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

    Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

    Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

    All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
