Power and Handling

The Niro EV is the most powerful version of the Niro, enabling drivers to take advantage of the 201 horsepower and 188 lb-ft generated by its permanent magnet synchronous motor. This level of performance is enough to get the vehicle hustling from 0 to 60 in less than seven seconds. The finely tuned MacPherson strut front suspension and independent multi-link rear suspension ensure predictable, stable handling and a smooth ride.


Range and Charging

Thanks to the Niro EV’s 64.8-kWh lithium-ion battery and regenerative braking system, drivers can expect an admirable driving range of up to 253 miles. That makes the vehicle ideal for everyday commutes or long-distance trips. Standard DC fast-charging capability allows the battery to be charged from 10% to 80% in about 43 minutes. Access to tens of thousands of DC fast chargers across the country means you can take the Niro EV anywhere.


Exterior Design

Futuristic styling and a slew of deluxe exterior features hint at the Niro EV’s advanced capabilities. The base Wind trim comes standard with LEDs for the daytime running lights and taillights, a chrome skid plate, and eye-catching 17-inch alloy wheels. It also has a power liftgate that can automatically open when you stand behind the Niro EV with your Kia Smart Key. Wave models add LED projector headlights and beautiful satin chrome accents.


Interior and Creature Comforts

Inside the Niro EV’s ultra-modern cabin, there’s generous passenger space that includes 36.9 inches of rear legroom. Taller drivers won’t feel cramped with 40.5 inches of front headroom. Measuring 22.8 cubic feet, the cargo hold has no problem accommodating several large pieces of luggage. The 60/40 split-folding rear seats can be folded down to provide 63.7 cubic feet of space if you need even more room for your things.

Plush SynTex and cloth upholstery, heated front seats, and a 10-way power driver’s seat with 2-way power lumbar support are all standard features on the Wind model. The Wave is especially inviting with its perforated SynTex-wrapped seats and power sunroof. A 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen is featured on both trims and offers support for connected navigation and SiriusXM satellite radio.

The Kia Niro EV truly excels when it comes to combining all-electric power, practicality, and comfort in an elegant package. Get in touch with our team at Planet Kia Charlotte in Charlotte, NC today to learn more and set up a test drive with the latest model!
