Kia Niro SUV ->

"Although it is not as a Toyota Prius can be quite as efficient, the Kia Niro is an impressive first stab at a hybrid car. "

, it is often the case that, to mark it out from the crowd, a car manufacturer will announce its hybrid models a striking design to be the most obvious example of the Toyota Prius. Not so the Kia Niro, however. This is a consistently normal looking car. In fact, the marketing of Kia pseudo-SUV-looking model as a practical family car that happens to be only a hybrid, but as a hybrid to be the only happens a practical family car.

This focus on practicality is in the fact that it is not quite as cheap as some of its hybrid rivals to run. While fuel economy of about 74mpg and CO2 emissions of 88g / km (on the most efficient models) are good, they are not outstanding. Add to this the fact that higher spec equipment variants 101g / km CO2 and only manage to emit only about 62mpg, and you are the Niro is so much cheaper to run to see than a standard gasoline-family sedan.

However, the entry level model of the car -tax exempt and enjoys a low 15% benefit-in-kind (BiK) company car tax rate, while higher spec models are adjusted at least again £ 20 per year in road tax. This also means that companies have car buyers 17% in control BiK stump.

As with most hybrid cars, the Niro combines a gasoline engine with an electric motor, giving a total of 138bhp. It differs from other gasoline-electric hybrids in other ways, however. Instead the batteries to reduce the amount of space in the trunk under the boot floor of putting -thus - Kia has placed under the rear seats

Meanwhile, the Niro has also sends power to the front wheels via a six-speed dual. -Clutch Automatic transmission instead of the more common continuously variable transmission (CVT), which in hybrids popular

You can choose from four different trim levels: 1, 2, 3 and First Edition - all of which come with. DAB radio, Bluetooth, alloy wheels, climate control dual-zone and LED daytime running lights. The mid-range '2' model is likely to find most buyers, but thanks to its generous equipment.

This will include a reversing camera, satellite navigation with real-time traffic information and weather reports, as well as consideration of protective glass, some ~~ POS = TRUNC and automatic wipers. The 1 and 2 are the cheapest models also run: Increase The higher-spec 3 and First Edition CO2 emissions to 101 g / km and fuel consumption to 64.2mpg drop

[1945071aufderStraße], the decision to use more of a six-speed dual clutch transmission as a CVT has been confirmed. The Niro is much finer than some other hybrids that a CVT, as the engine speed using rise and fall more naturally as you press or release the accelerator while CVTs can make a car quite noisy.

The Niro suspension feels slightly firm because a stable device designed to cope with the additional weight of the hybrid system. So far we have only driven the top spec car and its 18-inch alloys underscore the firm ride, so that it is rather nervous about irregularities while much tire roar at highway speeds, also.

Despite the firm suspension, the Kia is not to drive a lot of fun, discouraging you hard slide with light and vague steering ever. Even the car feels quite heavy, which dulls his answers. Also, it is not particularly fast: 0-62mph takes 11.1 seconds and running out of breath at 101 mph. Slide the ruined Niro hard only to fuel consumption, so it is best to maximize the car to drive in a relaxed manner efficiency.
