2019 Kia e-Niro Review - Driven In South Korea! New Motoring

What better place to drive a new Kia than South Korea?! This is the all new 2019 Kia e-Niro, Kia's latest EV. A sister car to the Hyundai Kona, the e-Niro can manage 282 miles on a single charge and will hit 62mph in 7.5 seconds - not bad for an electric SUV? The e-Niro will do on sale in April 2019.

Great review Sean. A very practical car and looks well.

Most chilled-out review ever! Looks like a great EV and a great car.

I enjoyed the new twist of driving it in South Korea and away from the military bases. I bet Koreans there are very proud of their Kias and Hyundais as they should be. I could purchase this car if it sells in the US prior to April. I need one now, but couldn’t wait four more months for one. Still, there’s much work to do to strengthen the EV grid throughout the US and other countries, but with this range, the anxiety ceases to exist. Since this isn’t an AWD, it’s weight is a plus in snow. More weight = better traction. Like my diesel wagon, which performs fantastic in snow. Plus, less probability for rollovers also. Overall, I like the specs. The styling not so much, but I’m a spec-driven person so it’s all good there. Nice review btw. I appreciate your delivery style—authentic and detailed about how the vehicles feel for you. I’m a strong feeler too when it comes to seating tests and driving in different cars. Thank you.

How did it feel driving on the right side of the road in a right-handed car?

Put in a battery heating system and it’s perfect.

Niro has memory seats in Korea. Outside of Korea, it doesn't. Why??? Why would Kia remove that option?

What colour was the vehicle you were driving? was that the standard brown, as it didn't look as bad as I thought it would be...

[SayedI]

At 1:49, indeed please don't do something like that. It would be a bad thing indeed if the car got shot at and damaged

Hurry up and take my money and give me my electric SUV

Машина хорошая, но неприятный, манерно-пафосный акцент, слушать противно ..

Do they know the name Niro come from an arsonist who burns down a city to blame it on other people? Name your car after an arsonist not very smart.
