2022 Kia Niro Electric Customer Reviews

Pros

• Power

  Good battery life, good efficiency

Cons

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  It's fun to drive with plenty of power. I like the steering and how it handles in general. Road noise is less than I thought it would be, and it has a smooth ride. Great acceleration.

• Technology and Entertainment

  Lots of helpful safety features that help with things like backing up, changing lanes, need to brake quickly... The sound system is very good.

• Fuel Economy

  I get a lot of miles out of a charge.

Cons

• Braking

  I wish you could set it so the regenerative braking would retain the maximum setting, and I wish it would come to a stop without braking or using the paddle levers. I've gotten used to it, but still would prefer those things.

• Cabin Noise

  My biggest gripe is I hate the very loud beeps whenever the car is in reverse. I understand the value of having some back-up noise, but it's as loud as a large truck or construction equipment. Excessive.

Pros

• Interior Space

  looks small on the outside but has big car feel on the inside

• Seat Comfort

  Drove to California and back to central Oregon with no hit, leg or but pain. better seats than my high end jeep.

• Cost to Maintain

  maintenance is changing the cabin filter and rotating the tires. super cool

Cons
