2026 0828 NISSAN IMG_7546

If you’ve been on the fence about going electric because of Manila’s spotty charging setup, Nissan just took away your last excuse. The All-New Nissan Kicks e‑POWER has officially landed in local showrooms, and it might just be the most practical answer to daily traffic we’ve seen all year.

Unlike typical hybrids that constantly switch between gas and electric power, the new Kicks drives 100% like an EV. Its electric motor pushes out a snappy 136 PS and 280 Nm of instant torque, giving you that smooth, immediate pull away from stoplights. The genius part? You never plug it in. The onboard 1.2-liter gas engine works strictly as a power generator for the battery, so you get all the quiet perks of EV driving while refueling at your usual neighborhood gas station.
