It’s easy to look at hybrid cars and see an identity crisis; when gas and electric offer such divergent experiences, what do you make of a vehicle that audaciously offers both? But that’s exactly why the future rests in hybrids like the Kia Niro.
For many manufacturers, hybridization involves some compromise between gas and electricity. With the Niro, however, Kia delivers the best of both worlds. Take its plug-in model, which lets you go all-electric for short commutes, while still retaining traditional fuel techniques for longer trips. Altogether, the Niro is affordable, perfect for the whole family, and an ideal jumping-on point for anyone interested in EVs.
Niro To Our Hearts
Kia first introduced the Niro’s hybrid version back in 2016. Unlike traditional hybrids, the first generation Niro utilized a dual-clutch transmission. Following this, a plug-in variant made its debut towards the end of 2017 and was then introduced to the United States in early 2018. Later the same year, Kia unveiled the all-electric version of the Niro, completing a triumvirate of electric options.
Now in its second generation, the Niro has evolved into a complete EV in every sense. Its all-electric model boasts an impressive EPA-estimated range of 285 miles. Its styling has undergone bold and futuristic redesign, and the already-roomy cabin has become even more spacious without sacrificing storage space. If you’ve been contemplating the switch to electric but have had concerns regarding range and family-based practicality, the Niro is your answer.
What ultimately sets the Niro apart is its versatility and accessibility. All three variants are tailor-made to support different automotive lifestyles, and all three are kept free of fuss and gimmicks. With the Niro, you get an extremely satisfying, straightforward vehicle that’s as electric-focused as you’d like it to be.
