The Kia Niro represents Kia's successful venture into dedicated hybrid vehicles, offering a practical crossover body style with efficient electrified powertrains. Available as a hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or pure electric vehicle, it provides excellent flexibility for environmentally conscious buyers without compromising on practicality.
Powertrain options define the Niro range. The hybrid combines a 1.6-litre petrol engine with an electric motor for excellent urban economy, while the plug-in hybrid adds extended electric-only range ideal for commuting. The pure electric e-Niro (later branded as Niro EV) offers impressive range and rapid charging capability. Post-2022 models bring updated styling and enhanced technology across all variants.
Equipment levels are generous, with '2' trim featuring smart cruise control and an 8-inch touchscreen. '3' adds larger alloy wheels and heated seats, while '4' brings premium features including leather upholstery and a larger infotainment screen. Each powertrain variant includes specific features optimized for its operation, such as regenerative braking paddles and dedicated EV displays.
When inspecting a used Niro, check the hybrid or electric systems thoroughly and verify service history includes appropriate specialist maintenance. For plug-in and electric versions, ensure all charging cables are present and undamaged. The transferable warranty provides excellent peace of mind, particularly for battery components.
