The new Outback has more powerful engines, new tech, and, of course, all-wheel drive.

Pros
Competent off-road,
spacious interior,
leading-edge tech features.

Cons
Ho-hum powertrains,
slow design evolution,
occasionally sluggish CVT.

The 2019 Nissan Kicks’ expressive styling masks its economy-car bones.

Pros
Intriguing style
Standard automatic emergency braking
Decent fuel economy
Good space utilization inside

Cons
Cheap bits show through
Tiring highway cruiser
Styling not for everyone
Higher price this year

Nissan hasn't changed anything on its smallest crossover for 2019. The Kicks was all-new for 2018 and replaced the quirky Juke.

Pros
Wonderfully efficient powertrain,
Costco-size cargo space,
charming design.

Cons
Slow in our testing,
driver-assistance features limited to the basics,
warranty is nothing special.

It's slightly less powerful than last year.The 2019 Nissan Kicks comes with front wheel drive. Available transmissions include: continuously variable-speed automatic.

Pros
High fuel economy estimates
Larger-than-average cargo capacity
Inexpensive compared to rivals

Cons
Leisurely acceleration
All-wheel drive isn't available
Missing a few desirable features
