Brand New: In pre-production form, the second-gen KiaUK Niro Hybrid shows a lot of promise 👊 Head to our full review for more
So far, we've driven the Niro Hybrid and can tell you that it can only drive in electric mode at low speeds for short distances . To help maximise the time you’re running on electric power, the Niro’s sat-nav system can recognise low-emission zones and will save its battery until you reach these areas on your journey.
The Niro Hybrid feels perfectly quick enough for everyday driving, but when you need a bit more kick for joining a motorway or overtaking, it builds speed rather leisurely. It certainly doesn’t feel quicker than its official 0-62mph time of 10.2 seconds suggests.
The ride, meanwhile, is generally comfortable. The suspension does a fine job over speed bumps around town and manages the effects of uneven motorways or A-roads really well. Harsher crevices, such as deep potholes, can send a bit of a shudder through the interior, though. The Niro is quiet when running on electric power alone, and when the engine cuts in, it’s only noisy when pushed hard. The rest of the time it fades into the background, sending virtually no vibration through the controls.
As you pull away, the transition from electric to petrol power is occasionally hesitant, but once you’re on the move, the power sources swap around impressively smoothly. You do notice more wind and noise at higher speeds than in the Karoq, but it’s nothing that will get too grating on a long trip.The latest Kia Niro didn’t feature in our 2021 What Car? Reliability Survey. However, Kia came a respectable ninth out of 30 car makers in our overall brand rankings for cars up to five years old.
