The current-generation Nissan Kicks e-Power has been around for quite a while, and the Japanese manufacturer has left it untouched since it first debuted in the ASEAN market in 2020.

But now that it’s entering its sixth year in Southeast Asia, Nissan looks like it will finally give its electrified crossover some much-needed attention. Based on a report by Autolife Thailand, Nissan could introduce a minor model change to the Kicks e-Power at the 2026 Bangkok International Motor Show, which is happening in a month’s time.

The update reportedly consists of some cosmetic changes and some interior tweaks as well, one that mirrors the facelifted Kicks currently offered in the Brazilian market, which is called the Nissan Kait.

In Brazil, the Kait features a different front and rear fascia, along with a new 17-inch wheel design on the exterior. The interior, on the other hand, gets redesigned air vents, new side door panels, a bigger touchscreen head unit, and a new digital instrument cluster for good measure.

While the Kait is powered by a 1.6L gasoline engine in Brazil, the refreshed Kicks e-Power for the ASEAN market is likely to retain the 1.2-liter, three-cylinder range extender that charges the 2.06 kWh battery of the Kicks’ electric motor. Power is also likely to be unchanged at 136 PS and 280 Nm of torque being sent to the front wheels.

With newer models entering the segment, the Kicks getting an update could put it back in the conversation for buyers wanting an electrified crossover.
