The C-CUV segment is one of the most competitive, offering a dizzying array of comparable models. The new Niro showcases Kia's new approach to traditional CPVs and provides key differentiators that set it apart in a crowded market segment. The perfect combination of form and function ensures that the new Niro offers a safe, family-friendly vehicle with good economic and environmental friendliness, which will encourage many to take meaningful first steps toward electrification.

The new Niro makes a smooth transition to sustainable mobility by choosing low- and zero-emission powertrains: hybrid (HEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and battery electric (BEV) for a smooth transition to sustainable mobility. The HEV and PHEV models are equipped with Kia's ultra-efficient Smartstream 1.6-litre GDI petrol engine. With a 463-kilometer (WLTP) all-electric range, the battery-electric Niro offers environmental and practical benefits.

The new Niro design, which is 4,420 mm long, 1,825 mm wide and up to 1,570 mm high, was developed on Kia's third-generation "K" platform. The 2,720 mm wheelbase and enhanced cabin design ratio provide occupants with best-in-class interior space and storage capacity.

The second generation of Niro benefits from the complete complement of Kia's DriveWise Intelligent Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), which avoids potential hazards on the road and gives everyone peace of mind. Forward Collision Avoidance Assist (FCA) warns and stops vehicles from possible accidents with other road users or pedestrians, while the intersection turn and intersection features provide additional safety when negotiating turns. These are two of the many safety systems included in Kia's DriveWise technology, which combine to increase driving confidence and convenience.
