Is the Nissan Kicks an SUV?

I have been thinking about buying a Nissan Kicks, but I’m not sure if it has enough towing capability for me. Is the Nissan Kicks classified as an SUV?

Yes, the Nissan Kicks is an SUV. More specifically, it’s categorized as a subcompact SUV due to its small size.
However, this small size has its downsides. The Kicks has a towing capacity of just 2,734 pounds, so it’s not nearly as capable as many of the larger SUV options on the market. If you want a vehicle with a higher towing capacity, you’ll probably have to opt for a mid-size SUV, like the
Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
or the
Nissan Pathfinder S
, as opposed to a subcompact vehicle.
