These features take Nissan Kicks to another level in terms of features. Usually, such features are found in expensive cars and not in ones under Rs 20 Lakhs.
The 360-degree camera can be switched on/off anytime as per convenience. The cameras are placed at the front, back and on either side mirrors. Another feature offered is a telematics-enabled smartwatch.
The smartwatch displays information such as speed of the car at a certain time, geo-fencing, vehicle’s location, tow-away alert, way to the car and vehicle battery level. This information is also available on the Nissan Connect app, which comes equipped with all Nissan models in India.
