The Kia e-Niro was the first electric vehicle to win the What Car? Car of the Year prize. With a model refresh comes a re-name to Nero EV, but the punchy design, quality build and extended range remains, meaning the Niro EV is still a great electric choice.

Designed around the driver, the Kia Niro EV comes with an 8" touchscreen to connect your devices to, a quality build, JBL speakers, parking sensors and cameras, the Niro feels well thought through.

We take real world range from EV database, which combines the predicted range of an EV in cold weather with the predicted range of an EV driving in warm weather.

For cold weather, this assumes it’s -10 degrees celsius with heating on. For warmer weather, it’s based on 23 degrees celsius and there’s no A/C on.

Predicting exact range is tricky, and range will depend on speed, style of driving, weather conditions and route conditions.

Many things can impact the range you get in your EV, there are outside factors and ones you can control or mitigate. Temperature (both of the car and outside environment), your driving style, weather, the surfaces you drive on and the spec of your car can all make a difference to your actual range.
