Kia Niro 2020

This has been one of the best vehicles I’ve owned and is genuinely difficult to part with.

Purchased new in 2020, this Kia Niro EV started life as my company vehicle. Following a change in company ownership, I bought the vehicle personally and continued driving it. While the ownership history records a transfer, there has effectively been one owner-driver from new.

The Niro has been exceptionally reliable, economical and practical. It remains a fantastic daily driver, family vehicle and road-trip car. Great commuter car, with ability to do a longer trip.

Last two years i26 charged the vehicle from a standard household three-pin power outlet, which has been more than sufficient for my daily driving needs.

Battery performance has changed very little over its life and it still delivers excellent real-world range, with up to around 420km+ achievable depending on driving conditions and style.

The car presents very well, has been carefully maintained by Kia, and has never given me any issues. We have recently upgraded to a newer EV, otherwise I would happily keep driving it.
