This is the all-new Kia Niro!
Mat’s got his hands on this family-friendly SUV to see if it has what it takes to grab your attention in an increasingly busy SUV market.
So let’s start with a look at the design. It’s notably different to the old model, with a whole new light design round at the back through to some chrome trim & bigger headlights at the front. You’ll also have the choice of optional side panels and blacked-out windows with higher-spec models!
On the inside, the improvements compared to the old model continue. The dash has a cool swooping effect coupled with a large infotainment screen, and the centre console comes with a number of physical buttons. You’ll also find soft-touch, high-quality materials throughout.
You can get the new Niro as either a hybrid or electric. The standard hybrid comes equipped with a 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine coupled with an electric motor to produce 139hp. You can also buy the Niro as a plug-in hybrid, which has the same set-up but a bigger battery and motor. So not only can it run on electric power alone for around 40 miles, but it can also put down 180hp.
Then there's an all-electric version. This is equipped with a single electric motor which is good for 201hp. The price starts from £28,000 for a hybrid, with the EV starting at £35,000!
So it all looks pretty impressive, but is the Niro really worth that £28,000 starting price? Stick with Mat to see for yourself!

@alunhoskins4513 2 года назад

@@talkandplay I guess Kia would come back with something like "Head rest is actually an abbreviation for Head Restraint, not Rest." Which is correct, they were originally introduced as a safety feature to prevent whiplash in a 'shunt' accident. Truth is of course we always use them as head 'rests', which is what we want, a comfort feature. Other manufacturers manage to make theirs comfy though and still do what they're supposed to do with regard to safety. So why not Kia? Style over function maybe?

@wendywhite2642 2 года назад

I bought this car new 2 months ago and I absolutely adore it! Mine is a non plug-in hybrid and I wouldn't have anything else! I get 53 miles to the gallon and I dig the hell out of it! It's all of the car I wanted and it's gorgeous. I love that color of blue that I got it's so sexy. I can pick it out of a crowd in a mile. Here's the kicker, I bought the new Kia ev6 before that! What a mistake! I traded that thing in before it had 600 miles! There is absolutely insufficient infrastructure for charging electric cars on the road. You will not use anything slower than a DC plus fast charge and they are few and far between. Here's how few and farther between they are, where I live in eastern North Carolina interstate 95 runs straight north to south. There are count them 3 DC plus charging stations in all of the capital of Raleigh. There are only three on the entire route along i-95. There are zero east of i-95 in all of North Carolina and all of South Carolina and much of Georgia and much of Virginia. You will not sit and wait for anything less than a DC plus charge. Takes too long. You'll be cussing any all-electric vehicle that you get right now I promise you that! And by the way upgrading your home service to put in a plug is around $1,000, $500 for the plug from the car to the outlet and 500 bucks to have an electrician run a circuit from your panel to your plugin.

Maybe it's because on an EV it's obvious that it's just for style, as it's often glossy and opaque and no EV needs a big grille (if I'm not mistaken), while fake grilles on petrol cars just make them seem like they're tryting to trick people into believing they're sporty cars? idk, im just guessing

This Niro is a good size for the 38 grand that the "2" model would set you back. I dont understand how the EV6 is 4 grand more for the base model despite probably being less practical. I'd love to know Matts opinion on which EV would be the best VfM if you wanted a car that could do 200+ miles on a charge from all of the manufacturers (Something that would cater to the kind of person who normally owns an estate car for practicality reasons)

I have the 22 plate older version Niro. Would consider swapping it but wanted to know if the newer one has the same annoying things as the older one. 1. The seat bell sign is so sensitive, if someone even touches the rear seats it just starts screaming to put seat bell on even though no one is sitting on that one. 2. The side passenger seat belts it self when used and then the passenger takes it off the seat belt do not go completely back to its original position therefore it keeps scraping and banging against the interior which is really annoying. 3. The lane assist is really annoying as you mentioned I have it off all the time.

Hi Mat, the lane departure is a pest and should be like a Tesla which is OFF as default and you turn on when you need it. Sadly Kia has it the other way around. However, you can easily turn it off by holding the button on the steering wheel with a lane and steering wheel symbol for 3 seconds. No need to faff with the screen and menu. It's a short cut to turning it off 👍.

The short cut for the Lane Departure is on the steering wheel . Press the button on the S/Wheel until the icon on the screen goes off.

On the Sportage you can turn lane keeping off on the steering wheel? Just press and hold?

@@GriffDawg94 why? If 80% range will take you 2 hours at 70mph then,.... That's fine. And remember, most rapid charging doesn't need to go to even 80% because all it needs is to get you home. You have a charger at home. So maybe you need 50 miles more - that's 10 minutes on a rapid. We need to get over this idea that cars need to constantly be full of fuel. They don't: they just need enough to get you to your destination.

@jeffruebens8355 2 года назад

The last Niro had average reliability and owner satisfaction according to Consumer Reports owner surveys. Many added an extra foam pad for the bottom of the front seats. Hopefully the new one will be more reliable, for the hybrid, plug in hybrid and all-lectric. I weigh the top ten list for owner satisfaction by Consumer Reports highly, what owners think months after daily driving. The Kia Telluride and Hyundai Tucson made the last list, with the less practical Corvette and Miata 1 and 2. Several all-electrics made the list, but I also think if people paid a lot, they are more likely to rate it higher, especially if it uses no or less gasoline.

My Niro EV 4 is 11 days old and I’m already having issues. The car often (3 times so far) refuses to move into gear. It seem it’s immobilised! I turn the car off and lock it then go back a few minutes later and it will start ok. Not good for a car that cost 43k
