Performance
Powered by a 1.6-liter engine and a hybrid system, the 2023 Kia
Niro offers 139 horsepower. It can make 195 pound-feet of
torque and uses a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. You have
the opportunity to change things up a bit when driving, as there are
both Sport and Eco modes. A real advantage to driving the Kia Niro is
that you won't have to fill up your gas tank that often. It can achieve
up to 54 miles per gallon, which is pretty amazing.
If you opt for the Niro plug-in hybrid powertrain, you'll be treated to additional power thanks to a beefed up electric motor for a combined 180 horsepower. The Niro PHEV options also add the benefit of all-electric driving range.
Kia Niro EV Performance
The fully electric Niro EV is actually the most powerful offering from Kia options bearing the Niro namesake. The new Kia Niro EV can generate 201 horsepower and offers up three driving modes of Eco, Normal & Sport to influence the vehicle's efficiency and acceleration.
Technology and Interior Comfort
As we mentioned earlier, the LX comes with an eight-inch
touchscreen. Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, and multiple
charging ports in the first and second rows are found in every trim in
the lineup. The other four trims all have 10.25-inch touchscreens. This
larger touchscreen is equipped with Kia Connect technology, SiriusXM,
and integrated navigation. To keep everyone comfortable, Kia has given
this model a dual-zone climate control system.
The front seats can be heated and ventilated, and the
available power-adjustable driver's seat has power lumbar adjustment.
For extra warmth, the steering wheel can be heated, too. One of the
futuristic components that can be built into the vehicle is the Digital
Key program. This program allows users to program mobile devices to act
as virtual keys. These virtual keys can be shared with others in case
someone has to quickly borrow the vehicle for a few hours.
Safety Features
The Kia Niro is fortunate to have a full set of
driver-assist systems. Along with forward collision alert, it has
emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic
collision-avoidance assist. Further, it can warn you when you're
drifting out of your lane and help you correct your steering if
necessary.
Trim Levels
The LX is the first of the five trim options for
2023. This trim features an eight-inch touchscreen and remote keyless
entry, and it has driver-assist technologies that we'll touch on later
in this overview. LED daytime running lights and taillights help the LX
feel modern.
The EX is the second available trim, and it's been
upgraded with roof rails and automatic rain-sensing wipers. It comes
with vegan leather and cloth upholstery, as well as heated front seats
and wireless charging.
The EX Touring takes things a step further with a sunroof,
LED fog lights, and alloy sport pedals, among other upgrades.
The top two trims are the SX and SX Touring. These both
come with smart power tailgates and heated steering wheels, in addition
to premium sound systems, vegan leather upholstery, and driver's seat
memory. The SX Touring is the only trim to have LED projector
headlights, and like the EX Touring, it has sport pedals and black
18-inch wheels.
