About Kia Niro EV

Thanks to intriguing lighting elements and two-tone body panels, the redesigned 2023 Kia Niro EV is a lot more noticeable on the road than its predecessor. The all-electric subcompact SUV also has a snazzier interior that includes distinctive styling and digitized instruments. Kia touts the extensive use of recycled materials inside, too. The new Niro EV features a 201-hp electric motor feeding the front wheels. Although that's a higher horsepower number than the Niro hybrid models (reviewed separately), the EV's acceleration feels far milder. A 64.8-kWh battery offers up to 253 miles of range and Kia claims it can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in about 45 minutes when connected to a DC fast charger.
