Kia’s Niro is a compact crossover that delivers bold styling and solid performance for a great price. Plus, it’s got an attractive, practical interior that makes the vehicle ideal for everyday use. Here’s why auto shoppers should consider the 2024 Kia Niro!
Super-Efficient Powertrain
For those prioritizing efficiency, the Niro promises to save money at the pump with its hybrid and all-electric powertrains. The standard engine is a 1.6L inline-4 featuring a full hybrid parallel system and pairing with a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. In addition to providing 139 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque, the powerplant helps achieve an excellent fuel economy of 53 MPG combined.
The EX and SX Touring trims can be had with a plug-in hybrid system that increases combined performance to 180 horsepower and allows the vehicle to run on electric power alone for up to 33 miles. There’s even a fully electric variant of the Niro that’s powered by a 201-horsepower permanent magnet synchronous motor. The EPA estimates an incredible driving range of 253 miles for this model.
Versatile and Comfortable Interior
Though it’s a small vehicle, the Niro houses a passenger cabin boasting more than enough space for five adults, including 41.5 inches of front legroom and 39.8 inches of rear legroom. Large cubbies and compartments throughout the cabin provide plenty of storage for personal belongings. Behind the 60/40 split-folding rear seats, you’ll find 22.8 cubic feet of cargo space. With the rear seating folded down, cargo space increases to nearly 64 cubic feet.
A stylish, futuristic interior design and high-quality materials derived from recycling and eucalyptus fibers further enhance the riding experience. Standard amenities include 6-way adjustable front seats and solar control glass that limits heat from the sun’s rays. Additional comfort comes from the available SynTex upholstery, heated seats, and 10-way power driver’s seat with lumbar support.
Feature-Loaded, User-Friendly InfotainmentÂ
Users can access Android Auto/Apple CarPlay smartphone integration and Bluetooth wireless technology with the Niro’s 8- or 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen. The larger display is standard equipment on most trims and comes with support for connected navigation, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a voice recognition system. SX and SX Touring models get a 7-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system that’s sure to satisfy any music lover.
Advanced Driver Assists
The Niro keeps you safe with a host of driver assistance technology. While standard blind-spot monitoring and forward collision-avoidance assist reduces your chances of becoming involved in an accident on busy roads, rear cross-traffic monitoring lets you maneuver in crowded parking lots with confidence. There’s also a speed limit detection system and driver attention monitoring that reminds tired drivers to pull over and get some rest.
With its compact size, impressive efficiency, and top-notch amenities, the Niro is the ultimate urban vehicle. Contact Randy Marion Kia in Salisbury, NC today and let us help you schedule a test drive!
