Great Hybrid
By Phil S | on 3/16/2026 3:47:52 PM
I purchased my Niro several months ago and can honestly say "I Love It". The drive, feel technology, features and gas milage are outstanding. Interior feels nice with a spacious cabin and more then enough room for passengers and more. I really prefer the EX Touring package which gives you the bigger tires and body side accents that make it stand out from the regular LX or EX packages. I think its the best bang for the buck and looks great. So far I am impressed and the Warranty cant be beat. Only time will tell but for now...I am a happy camper.… - 5.0

So far so good - '25 EX HEV
By Andrew | on 1/23/2026 9:21:03 PM
I'm a big fan of the car so far. I drive 90% highway and have averaged 46MPG. The cold is a killer for the hybrid efficiency, so don't plan on the 50+ MPG the EPA gets from 55mph on a test track in warm weather. I don't notice a lack of performance, in fact the contrary. The battery provides instant power when needed, no waiting for a transmission shift. Of course, if you try to accelerate while doing 70mph up a hill, it's not going to go well. I'm so glad I went with this over a hatchback. There is a lot more room and I like the extra storage where a spare would be. Passengers sit comfortably in the back. I'm glad I got the rails, but you can only get the bolt-on version from Kia which, of course, is stupid expensive. Competing options are slightly cheaper, but clamp to the rail. The car drives fine in the snow with snow tires. I came from a Subaru and will happily take the better fuel economy and no AWD.…
