I have a '24 EX Touring Hybrid and I absolutely love it. I'm getting 49 MPG with the AC on. If I need power, just engage sports mode and off you go. Very quiet, lots of room and comfortable seats. All the safety bells and whistles.

[@6.2v87]

Imagine driving a tiny SUV, with a tiny motor, (with a tiny motor that is electrified) and you still consume more fuel than some random car with triple the engine size and power that was built 30 years ago. Let that sink in.

[@Sha-Ayo]

Give example of a car from 30 years ago that fits the category

[@6.2v87]

W220 S500 for example.

Fuel Consumption is absoluter terrible for EU standards. I dont get it how Mercedes manges to build a 200hp C Class with like 4l diesel@130kmh when this thing jugs down over 7l gas @120kmh

[@Sha-Ayo]

Small inefficient petrol engine

[@emanuelefossati3812]

Very expensive, inefficient combination between purchase price, poor performance, ridiculous fuel consumption, useless electrification. Congratulations to engineering and marketing departments.

[@Catchingcars]

The Consumption is actually decent in real world driving mostly it is better in the city than on the highway So the electrification does make sense there. Ofcourse the Kia Niro is not the most fun or emotional car. But overall we were very pleased with interior quality and city consumption. It's not as bad as you make it seem

[@Seba03111976]

I agree with Emanuele. I have same consumption over 100 kmh at a 2.0 turbo petrol 184 HP. Not to mention 8 sec to 100 kmh and 235 kmh top speed.

[@Catchingcars]

@@Seba03111976 yes but in the city this will get much better fuel economy than your 2.0t and thats what the niro is made for. Ofourse 2.0t is faster and probably more fun

[@Sha-Ayo]

Similar economy to previous gen niro, no reason to get the new one especially since the infotainment software is identical
