    The Niro is Kia's first attempt at a hybrid, so it is not without its flaws. 

  • Kia Niro long-term - report front

    The exterior styling is more reserved than some of the <a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/best-cars/86211/best-hybrid-cars-sale">hybrid</a> bunch, for example the <a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/toyota">Toyota</a> <a href="h

  • Kia Niro long-term - side

    The pricing of the Niro means it goes into direct competition with the Toyota Auris hybrid and trail blazing Prius.

  • Kia Niro long-term - petrol station

    The petrol engine is 1.6-litres and produces 139bhp.&nbsp;

  • Kia Niro long-term - driving

  • Kia Niro long-term - front cornering

    Prices for the Niro start at just under £21,500 and raise to around £27,000 for top of the line models.

    This is the Kia Niro, a<span>&nbsp;petrol-electric hybrid.</span>

    As standard you are treated to generous levels of kit. It includes, cruise control, multifunction steering wheel and electric windows.

  • Kia Niro long-term - driving

    If you have a heavy right foot and a stopwatch, you will see the South Korean SUV reach 60mph in 9.2seconds.
