The wife and I are looking at getting one of these (U.K.) so thank you, great review 👏
I bought an '18 Niro and drove it for 5 years. It gets plenty cold in Minnesota in the winter, which affects hybrid fuel mileage, but over 5 years, it typically got mid-40s mpg on the highway, 47-49 mpg around town. Bought a 2023 Niro this spring ('23) 'cause it has a few features not on the '18. It only has about 5,500 miles on it, but regularly gets 53-55 mpg around town, and on the one long trip so far, it managed 47 mpg from Minneapolis to the Rockies and back at 70+ mph. Slightly larger than the '18, very comfortable highway cruiser at 70+ mph, and quieter than the '18 as well. It's not especially slow, but my street racing days are long past, so "adequate" power is OK. The fully digital dash display is clear and legible. I've never needed 4WD for the winter - front-wheel drive is adequate unless you're going off-road - and I regularly get more than 500 miles to an 11+ gallon tank of gas. So far, I'm very happy with the Niro.
I think after 2021 the Niro can use battery to warm up the cabin right? I know the 2019-2020 have to use the engine, so when cold the engine turns on until cabin reaches temp
@@ibbi270 Hi, I don't know. I just wait a minute for it to warm a bit, then go ahead and drive it, slowly at first. Heater works fine, but I've never been in that much of a hurry to see if it will work battery-only.
Well done Kia. This was in my top 3 when car shopping recently. If not for Kia dealerships atrocious service and markups it very well could have been the car for me. But as it was there were too many red flags during my visit to push past and make me feel comfortable with a Kia purchase.
Any chance you guys are planning to do a '23 CR-V Hybrid mileage test?
I've been waiting for this review! Thank you!
That's the car I have! I am so pleasantly surprised! It's super comfy drive. Top speed is not great but the "around town" speeds are great. The pick up from electric engine is really good.
I have some wind noise top front passanger door at high speeds. Probably normal. Some door rattle with bass too... that's a bit worse but it is what it is!
At last you did the niro hybrid, I was waiting since it was launched.
This car looks way better in person. 👍
I had a 2017 Niro and it was good. The 2023 is nicer and still gives us 50 to 60mpg around town and as stated about 45 on the highway at 70, at 80 mph still about 38 mpg. Love the car.
We have a 2021 HEV, I regularly drive to the UK and Germany from the Netherlands in it, fully loaded if I’m going to a trade show or on a dive trip. It’s a proper workhorse, offering a lot of comfort and is damn economical, returning as standard, about 56mpg (wifey squeezes 60mpg out it…) cruising at 115kph on the clock (110kph gps). We’re waiting on delivery of our EV model.. we’re sold on the Niro, it’s a brilliant car. And great value for an all rounder.
Good, factual review - well done.
18” v 16” wheels will definitely Affect things (mainly the mpg’s)
The 16” wheel in my opinion doesn’t look good at all on the Niro, the 18” are much better looking… you think you’ll get lower mpg with the 18”?
@@stefanbololoi7110 yes of course you will get lower mpg with wider and bigger tyres... I have 18 inch wheels too, in near future i will change to 16 inch
@@stefanbololoi7110 That's what I thought but I got the top trim with premium pack and in EU, this comes with 16" wheels and in reality, these look great.
DIDO ON THIS INFO. JUST TURNED 16K ON MY 23, EXTREMELY ENJOYABLE!
If you use the paddles for breaking around town to adjust regenerative breaking to level 1 or 2 when coming to a red light or stop, you will easily get over 60mpg-100mpg, depending on speed and slopes. Go back to level 0 when fully stopped.
Thanks for the info. Sticker mpg can always be up marketed. I was planning on 43mpg but this will do. Variation will change per car. Good review
Would love to see a city test. I'm looking at getting one and all my driving is city.
Just purchased one recently and using the same method, I got 48 mpg in mixed drving. The trip computer in the car exaggerated the mileage a bit. I have the EX with 16 inch wheels.
DM, Let's see how this compares to the Corolla Cross Hybrid.
Civic hybrid and prius of 2024
Im cross shopping it with the upcoming civic hybrid. My gripe with the civic is no rear vent, no ventilated seats, no roof rails, no memory seats.
I don't understand. Does Niro has an elevated seating just like Sportage & Rav4 or does it feel like you are sitting in a sedan??
I've had four KIA's and loved them all.
EXCEPT that with the 2023 Niro EX, the door button on the driver's side does not work consistently. It is frustrating as hell constantly pressing the button over and over.
I took it to the dealer 3x and they really gave me the run around and lectured me it was my fault--knowing damn well that this has been a known problem since at least 2017.
Basically, KIA refuses to support the dealership with this issue. This leads me to wonder what else is instore.
Aside from that I've been very, very, happy with all my KIA purchases and good quality. So far.
FYI: 2023 hybrid has 180 horsepower good review thanks 😊
I was shopping for a Niro Hybrid... until I called my insurance company and found out it was 1/3 more to insure than my 2021 Subaru Legacy Touring XT. I guess all Hyundai and Kia models are taking an insurance hit since the the Tik Tok theft thing got going.
its so funny for 12$ the fuel gauge wouldnt even move here in Germany 😂😂
Would be interesting to see how a modern VW Jetta faring in terms of MPG even without hybrid.
We’ll be testing one next month!
Which gas 87 or 89
Check it out in city driving...In our 2019 Touring, we got 63mpg at the Outer Banks NC. For the price, its hard to beat...Every option AND Ventilated seats, for under $30k???...REALLY??
Hi, How is the cabin noise? Is it bad like the red prius that you 've tested?
Maybe slightly better, but hard to directly compare.
@@DailyMotor how about cabin noise of corolla cross hybrid compare to niro? Which one is better?
Curious as to why you set the speed at 70-72, since I would think the EPA gets their mpg numbers from most places legally set speed limits (65mph) 🤷♂️🤔
Where i am in Michigan its 70 on the highway so 72 is below what most people drive lol and i believe he said he wanted a more realistic drive test
On I-10(Marana) north of Tucson the speed limit is 75
Real world driving. Who really drives at 65mph
@@sinyomichael7915 hahahhaha..drive that slow on I-10 and drivers will take a shot at you-----80-90 mph is the rule.....better stay in the right lane
Anyone know what the standard speakers sound like please? Not HK
No
Dunno about the standard ones. But harman kardon is S***T
My Renault Kadjar petrol (1.3 turbo) does 49 MPG no Hybrid required :-)
Sonata Hybrid, Camry Hybrid, Avalon Hybrid, Civic hatchback Touring 1.5T with the manual, Elantra 2.0, Altima 2.0 VC-T, all of them had the same or better MPG than this 2023 Niro Hybrid in the same test )))) Prius was way more efficient
Much prefer 16" wheels to give you 9 mpg more on the highway.
not sure you guys know how to drive a hybrid, if you stay around 60-64mph on the motorway in the winter you will get over 50mpg, in the summer you will easily get to 60mpg, even with a heavy load and roof box i drive to Slovakia in the summer and still hit 55mpg over 1700km in 26 hours, my niro doesnt like short journeys in winter but over 10 miles once its warm and even in the dark winter its over 50mpg
i would have bought if it had AWD
UBER DRIVERS: Please buy these! Thank you
36k xD
the whole eye glasses camera or whatever you are using there is very annoying to see so much movement in the camera back and forth for the whole video. FYI
Salute for doing 100 miles of driving just to give us an accurate mpg rating
Respect 🫡
