Great review!! We placed our deposit for the e-Niro back in May, and with the new emission rules for 2020 I am hoping that we will have the 2nd edition by April. By the way, your backside must have been on fire with the heating on level 3! HA HA!

We ordered ours a year ago. Think we will get it in september. Were just told that we will get the 2020 version. Thank you Kia!

I have been running my e_Niro for around seven months and 30000miles. I'm averaging 4.9kW/miles and have been it exceed 360 miles on a single charge. No faults whatsoever with it. It performs brilliantly at all times, is quiet, quick and comfortable. I was sat thinking if I would change it, maybe for an i-Pace but then the range is less, as is the Tesla 3, both of which are far far more expensive. Kia e-Niro = Brilliant!

Here in central Texas, E-Niros/Niro EVs are sitting on the dealers lot. Last week there were 22 cars in two trim levels and a range of colors. This week they are down to 16 but they seem to get shipments quite regularly.

I'm not sure if it is on all E-Niros, but I really like the Auto Hold feature that keeps the car in place without one's foot on the brake pedal. This is my first car to have that feature and the adaptive cruise control. Now I no longer enjoy driving our other car which was fine until I became spoiled by the E-Niro.

As of Mar ‘20, including the reduction of the PICG, it now starts at £34, 495.

Applies to any BEV or vehicle with a spare wheel. On extended trips, with lots of luggage. Just stow things you won’t need till your destination, either in the spare wheel well or under the boot floor. Then the spare wheel & jack and or cables go in the boot with only light stuff piled on top. That way, you don’t have to entirely unpack the boot on the motorway, if you get a puncture.

Great review. We to have one on order. Placed the order in late March this year and we are hoping to get it March April next year.

Electric vehicles are the future.
No noise, no emissions, less maintenance costs, less fuel costs.

Good review I'm taking delivery of the Niro phev in a couple of weeks, have you done a review on the phev? One small point keep both hands on the wheel.

Good video except you need to sort out the sound which is not consistent

I wish you could just have the option to spec cars like this without the "teal" trim - it ruins the design which is otherwise ok, just because someone in marketing decides electric cars need blue bits stuck on. Looking at one to lease now - the new yacht blue (replacing the far nicer dark blue) looks terrible with the teal.

FYI the Niro EV 4 coming out in the UK in 2020 will be approx £34, 500 after the £3, 500 grant ....ouch.

Yet another good review of the e-Niro. I’m a Brit living in France and got mine in March this year. Check out Kia e-Niro Diaries here for my totally unprofessional ‘shaky hands productions’ rendition of the ownership experience...We’ve done trips from our home in western France to Switzerland, Brittany and the Southwest, using public and destination charging. Next month a trip back to the UK which should be interesting. Just had a moan at Brittany Ferries that they have no charging facilities on board. We always have a cabin and sleep on the overnight crossing...missed opportunity to charge but hey, early days yet.

What a picky review! Can't believe how negative it is considering the comments at the end! One of the best family electric cars around made to sound very ordinary!
