The Nissan Kix Turbo 0.6L Petrol Auto 4WD (H59A chassis code) is a rugged, pocket-sized Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) kei-class SUV produced from 2008 to 2012. Built under an OEM agreement by Mitsubishi Motors, the Nissan Kix is a rebadged variant of the legendary second-generation Mitsubishi Pajero Mini. It satisfies strict Japanese kei-car dimensional laws while featuring a genuine off-road mechanical transfer case.

Engine & Performance Specifications

Despite its microscopic displacement, the engine utilizes a forced-induction system to navigate steep mountain trails and urban highways confidently.

  • Engine: 659cc (0.66-litre) 4A30 DOHC 16-valve Intercooled Turbocharged inline 4-cylinder.
  • Power Output: 64 PS / 63 bhp (often rounded up to 70 BHP in grey-market export listings) at 6,000 RPM. (Note: 64 PS is the legal maximum limit imposed by Japanese law for any kei car vehicle class).
  • Torque: 88 Nm of torque at 4,000 RPM.
  • Transmission: 4-speed torque-converter automatic transmission.
  • Drivetrain: Easy-Select Part-Time 4WD system controlled via a physical floor-mounted manual transfer case lever.
  • Drive Modes: 2WD (rear-wheel drive for dry pavement fuel economy), 4WD High (for slippery roads, mud, or snow), and 4WD Low (for crawling over steep, rough obstacles).

Key Dimensions & Off-Road Architecture

The Kix is uniquely engineered as a miniaturised version of full-sized off-roaders, stepping away from the soft-roader crossover architecture found in most modern subcompacts:

  • Chassis build: A hybrid monocoque frame integrated with a built-in ladder frame backbone to withstand harsh off-road vibrations and twist forces.
  • Ground Clearance: An impressive 195 mm clearance height coupled with short overhangs that produce an aggressive 38-degree approach angle and a 46-degree departure angle.
  • Footprint: Exactly 3,395 mm long and 1,475 mm wide, with a tight turning radius of just 4.8 metres for nimble inner-city maneuverability.
  • Exterior Trim: Distinctive vertical-slat Nissan SUV gunmetal corporate grille, rugged unpainted resin bumpers, a side-hinged rear tailgate, and a signature hard rear-mounted spare tyre shell.
