The Kia Niro is offered in a few powertrains, so drivers in Framingham can choose low-emission vehicles. Whether drivers choose the all-electric Niro or the plug-in hybrid, they drive a great vehicle with much to offer.
The Kia Niro EV
The Kia Niro EV is a great subcompact SUV with good range, many features, and zippy handling for drivers in Natick. With a single electric motor, the Kia Niro EV produces 201 horsepower. For such a compact vehicle, with a curb weight of 3,715 pounds, that is plenty of power to keep up with freeway traffic and bounce around the city. With a range of 253 miles, the Niro can recharge the 64.8 kWh battery from 10 to 80 percent in just about 45 minutes.
Kia Niro PHEV
The plug-in hybrid version of the Niro offers a 139-horsepower 1.6-liter I4 engine and an electric motor for 180 horsepower. Power is delivered through a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission to the front wheels for drivers in Waltham. The 11.1-kWh battery can drive the Niro for about 33 miles without using the gas engine. Saving some weight over the Niro EV, the Niro PHEV has a bit more pickup.
Similarities and Differences Between the Two
As the Niro EV and the Niro PHEV share the same platform, they share many of the same features. Both offer seating for five, but the EV has a large cargo space since it only has to house one power source. Something to consider for drivers in Marlborough.
