Auto review: Niro PHEV confirms the best of both worlds for Kia lovers!

In 2023, Kia takes the Niro to new heights. As a popular commuter known for excellent gas mileage and great interior space, the Niro goes PHEV.

Wrapped in mineral blue with black aeroblade accents, my 2023 Kia Niro looked great with the newly designed front emblem. Powerfully equipped with a 11.1 kWh battery the Niro PHEV has 33 miles of all-electric range but impressively a 510 total driving range; that’s phenomenal, in fact. This combines for over 107 MPGe. Currently, the Niro offers a hybrid version and a 100% EV option, while the Niro PHEV is the newest to the ever-evolving fleet. With 180 horsepower, my Niro PHEV tester was not sluggish and was quick on its feet.

The Niro PHEV's interior has all of Kia's excellent design qualities, such as its easy to use infotainment system. The center console offered the on/off button and the turn-dial transmission.
