KIA E-NIRO. IS IT STILL WORTH CONSIDERING?

EV Channels Review

The Kia e-Niro, despite being on the market for three years, remains a compelling option in the family crossover EV segment, particularly for those prioritizing practicality and efficiency. The reviewer highlights its excellent range (around 255 miles on a full charge for the 64kWh model), commendable efficiency, and exceptional refinement, making it a very comfortable and quiet car for long journeys. Practicality is a strong suit, with ample boot space, good rear-seat accommodation, and a well-equipped interior featuring physical buttons and an integrated screen. However, the styling is described as safe and forgettable, and higher trim levels are beginning to feel expensive compared to newer rivals, with an interior design that lacks the modern flair of some competitors. The lack of rear USB charging is a minor drawback. Despite these points, the e-Niro's sensible choice as a family car is emphatically endorsed, positioning it as a top contender even against newer competition.
