Overview

The Kia Niro EV is a compact, family-focused electric crossover that pairs a generous 64.8kWh battery with an impressive WLTP range of up to 285 miles, making it one of the most efficient cars in its segment. Its front-mounted 201bhp motor delivers relaxed, comfortable progress, with 0-62mph taking around 7.8 seconds, while DC rapid charging at up to 100kW can add meaningful range in about 43 minutes on a 10-80 per cent charge. Inside, the Niro EV offers a well-built, tech-rich cabin with a dual 10.25-inch display setup, a practical 475-litre boot and seating for five. Standard equipment is strong across the range, and the seven-year, 100,000-mile warranty provides genuine peace of mind. As a used buy in 2026 the Niro EV remains one of the smartest value choices among compact electric SUVs, blending real-world efficiency, dependability and everyday usability.
