2018 Kia Niro consumer reviews

This car definitely meets my needs and has comfortable lumbar heated seats which are a must for such a leg roomy vehicle plus laydown rear seats for storage and can get a tow hitch installed.

The Kia Niro turned out to be better than I expected. I had almost decided on a different vehicle. When I found out how comfortable the Niro was, and that it had all the features I wanted, I was surprised to find it was $4000 less than my "first choice."

Love the handling . Love it?s a hybrid currently doing 52 mpg. Great styling on the car . Would recommend it to anyone

When I went car shopping, I had no idea that a hybrid was in my price range. I love the Kia Brand they have the best warranties. When I decided to get a new Kia and was introduced to the Niro, I took a test drive. I was hooked, the engine is so quiet, the comfortable seats are great for long rides. The back seats are roomy and the trunk/storage compartment is also very big. That is why I looked at it seriously right away, because the Sportage was to big and the Soul was to small. This size is perfect for me. One big point is the gas consumption. I'm saving money, the mileage is amazing on this car I will recommend and have done so to my Family, Clients and Friends.

My wife and I were on the fence between a Toyota Prius, Prius V, and the new Kia Niro for our growing. In the end, after TONS of research, test driving, and all the features + options available, we went with the Kia Niro -- super glad we did! Pros: - 49 MPG (combined)!!! - Larger cabin space than regular Prius. - Easy infant and child seat installation (using LATCH system). - Trunk has different tiers of compartments for storage (as a neat freak, I found this more convenient than I thought, especially for baby diapers, wipes, changing pad, etc... - Trunk is perfect height for changing a baby -- don't need to bend over. - Stylish interior w/ Android + Apple Car Play (something Toyota surprisingly has yet to offer) - Interior cloth is easy to clean, even with baby throw-up & mess. - Best bang for the buck (and more affordable) than the Toyota Prius line. - Greater and longer warranty than other car manufacturers! Cons: - Slightly smaller truck space than regular Prius (however, larger space when seats are folded down compared to its rival). - Arguably not a crossover. Does not have AWD. - Trunk space can be bigger, but you'd lose out on MPG, so it's bit of a trade-off. - Includes spare tire kit, but no spare tire itself. If you're a Costco member and use their Auto Program, you get 50% off accessories (I'd suggest using towards rubber mats and spare tire).

We are loving the Niro!! I'ts everything that we had hoped for and more. Great styling, comfortable, fun to drive and great mileage. We are so glad that we drove it and bought it!!

I love the looks inside and out, and there is plenty of room for the rear passengers. So far I'm getting 52.6 mpg.

Excellent Car. Quality-Reliability-Comfort-Design-Performance-Style-Value are all excellent. The quality of all the components are superior. I would recommend this car to buy, all the safety features are excellent.

I still cannot believe this is the base model! After my car accident resulting in a total loss of my 2016 Kia Forte I wasn't sure I wanted to drive again out of fear. This car has made me feel so safe. The drive is smooth, exterior is sporty and the interior is super modern/spacious. The gas mileage is seriously something to make a big deal about. I drive 100 miles a day and I am getting 41-45 mile to the gallon in this bad boy!!!

My husband and I were in the market for a car as our lease was about to be up. We were walking around the lot and didn?t see much that we liked. As soon as we walked past the Niro we had to check it out. It fit all of our needs perfectly.
