    I own the 2019 Kia Niro Ex. It's extremely comfortable to drive. My wife who calls herself a professional passenger says the front and back seats are really roomy and comfortable. If you want to save money and less time at the gas station, I would really look at the Niro.

    Learned something about hybrids the hard way. Went to start my 2018 Kia Niro Hybrid and it wouldn't start because the built in 12 volt battery was dead. So off to Kia Roadside assistance to tow it to the dealer. Dealer checked it out and said I simply didn't drive it enough (true). So he showed me a switch on the dash that bypasses the 12 volt dead battery and allows the car to start from the current on the main battery pack.
    Duh....cost me $73 dollars to learn I should have read the manual (RTFM...read the f'ing manual).....

      That's on the salespeople too. Good dealers show you those types of things when you pick up the car. I'm sorry that your experience hasn't been as good as you had hoped. Also, in Canada, roadside assistance shouldn't charge you anything.

BTW, in the last 20 or so years I have leased and owned at least 11 Kia vehicles and never once had a problem with any of them. I will never buy anythng but a Kia. This low battery problem was likely my fauslt not driving much during the Covid lockdown, PLUS not reading the owners manual....oh well, live and learn

    I have a 2020 Niro lx it's the best car I ever owned and I own lots of cars over my 80 years. when I went to test drive it I was thinking it wasn't even going to be able to get out of its own way. I was wrong even though it only has 139 HP the car was faster than my Honda with 225 Hp I was trading in. I had to take a double look at the car's HP numbers. I ask the salesman why that was and all he said was I don't understand it either. Anywho I lo9ve this car I get about 48 MPH on the freeway and check this out 51 around town. I use to fill up every week now it's every third week

  • @rayschoch5882
    @rayschoch5882 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I've had an '18 LX (not quite equivalent to this one) for 3+ years, and have asked myself the same question: Why isn't this a best-seller? I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs., and my Niro is very comfortable, hauls bags of mulch, multiple guitars, etc., without blinking. It gets fuel mileage in the mid-50s in city driving, mid-40s at 75 mph on long-distance interstate highway trips. Mileage suffers somewhat in cold weather (I'm in Minnesota), so in the winter, it gets about 10 mpg less in the city and on the highway. The dual-clutch transmission is superior to a CVT in my view. My Niro is 1 second faster through the 1/4 mile than the Subaru Crosstrek it replaced, but 1 second slower than the Mazda3 hatchback that preceded the Subaru. I bought Kia "winter" floor mats and cargo tray, which offer great protection in lousy weather. My answer to "Why isn't it a best-seller?" is that Kia does a terrible job of marketing it. I've never seen a Kia television ad featuring the Niro. Not meant to be a race car, and it doesn't look like one. I haven't spent a penny on maintenance beyond gasoline and the occasional oil change, and it has been absolutely reliable, whether around town or on long, cross-country road trips.

      Thanks for sharing your experiences! I think you’re right, this really isn’t advertised as much as many other vehicles. I wonder if they just didn’t plan to produce it in higher volumes, so maybe they didn’t advertise it as much because they were already selling every one that they made.

    I just purchased a 2021 Kia Niro EX Premium in the US. I have been having issues with adjusting the service interval in the settings menu. Now my dealership is saying that Kia is presetting the service interval because people have not been doing it themselves and it is no longer an option to change it in the menu. I don't believe this because there isn't a one size fits all interval, there are also severe condition intervals. I think my dealership just doesn't know how to fix it so they are giving me the run around.

    I drive a 2013 Lexus ES350 here in North Carolina, USA. Considering getting a 2022. A couple of days ago I test drove a 2021 Kia Niro Hybrid Touring, with the salesman sitting in the passenger seat. Seemed like the road noise was a bit prominent, but I did not drive it on a highway, just around the dealership back roads. It is peppy and the engine noise is not bad at all for a hybrid. The steering is light and precise. Overall, a fun car I think. But the dealer wanted to give me *$5000 less than the Kelly Blue Book wholesale value* for my Lexus so I left. Besides, I'm spoiled by the Lexus as regards spaciousness, quietness and power. Also, I don't want to decide till I test drive the upcoming Lexus NX 2022 model. The hybrid will be called NX 350 I believe. I realize now, too, that a dealer can play tricks with his computer and show you the KBB (Kelley Blue Book) value that he wants to show you. So do your research before you go to the dealer.

So tired of grey and black. So boring. 😴 This car really has some nice features and style. That's something the current Pruis models don't offer. Toyota took a ugly car and made it even uglier.

    Strange.. I have the 2017 Niro LX, and another reason I liked it was the straightforward round and straight gauges and dash layout. Then it seemed they went to more slanted, jagged letter, 'Buck Rodgers' style gauges in the 2018/2019? models. Now the 2020 gauges look almost exactly like mine. So they've returned to the sensible gauges, or maybe the new style ones were for Euro/ROW models.. anyway, the Niro has been great, my avg. through all fillups, logged on Fuelly is 53.1MPG, mostly small town/highway driving.

    I just got this car and I hit the driver mode off how do I get it back on? I don't even know how I hit it?

      The Driver mode? The Niro has a normal (which is actually an ECO mode) which is a drive mode that you don't have to do anything to activate, and then if you tip the shifter to the manual shifting side, it will place the car in SPORT mode. Is that what you're asking? If not, feel free to clarify for me.

      We actually don't have any in stock at Brantford Kia right now either. I'm wondering if there's a temporary short supply. I haven't looked into that.

      I’ve never heard of this vehicle before until today that I received an Ad in an email of a nearby car dealer. Brand New 2020 LX FWD Black $21,900 US Dollars. That’s how I got to this video when I search for the vehicle here. I just wonder if this is as high off the ground as an suv to handle well in the snow in winter months. But I’m really liking the 50 mpg part. That sounds awesome

    Great gas mileage but the Hyundai Kona is so much better looking.

    Why talk so fast? It’s annoying. I got to the seat height adjustment …. Just tell us it’s manual ok. We can handle it we are adults.

      I'm sorry to annoy you? This is the way I do videos. I'm always trying to improve, but I can't promise that I'll make everyone happy.

    i own a car like this; hibrid, without charging port... it is the best kia car! affordable price, great mileage; a huge interior space and so on...
    On the road, it is more stable than a Kia Sportage... and is economical regarding the fuel... best mileage...
    The plug-in version would have been much more expensive, and i coudn't charge it daily, since i don't live in a house, but in a flat in a block :)
    You did not mention the fact that this car still has a full-sized spare tire :)

    "​does it match up to Rav 4 ? Answer: yes, and it is about half the price :)
