Kia has revised the hybrid versions of the Niro. Both the versions with hybrid and plug-in hybrid drives are technically and visually modified at the Geneva Motor Show.
Both versions will come to Germany in early summer. The front and rear aprons and the design of the lights have been revised. In addition to the projection headlights, Kia has also revised the LED daytime running lights. The LED rear lights also have a modernized light graphic.

In addition, the rear fog lights and light reflectors have been redesigned. New alloy wheels (16 to 18 inches) and colors round off the cosmetic measures.
Higher quality impression
The Korean automaker promises a significant revision for the interior of the Kia Niro, which should give a higher quality impression thanks to new materials and optical changes. This is ensured by soft-touch materials on the dashboard and accents in glossy black, silver and chrome. Shift paddles behind the steering wheel for the modified six-speed dual clutch transmission are new. In the higher equipment, an electronic parking brake replaces the previous handbrake lever.
While the basic version offers an 8-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system and an instrument unit with a 4.2-inch display, as before, a 10.25-inch touchscreen in combination with a 7-inch display will be optionally available in the future. A new telematics system called UVO is also used, which, thanks to its own SIM card, provides the driver with real-time traffic information, among other things, or shows free charging stations. UVO also masters common e-call functions. Finally, the connectivity technology allows data on the vehicle status and additional remote functions to be queried via a UVO app.
Distance cruise control now with traffic jam assistant
Kia has also expanded the capabilities of the assistance systems for the stainless steel hybrids. The distance cruise control will also regulate stop-and-go traffic in the future. There is also an active lane departure warning system.
Kia has not yet given any information about prices, but these will probably increase slightly. The Niro Hybrid currently costs around 25,400 euros, while the plug-in hybrid version costs just under 33,000 euros. (SP-X)
