Kia Niro Comparison
The 2023 Kia Niro is back for a second generation in Australia, and we’re not years behind relative to the rest of the world this time around.
The new Niro hybrid (HEV) and electric vehicle (EV) are touching down in Australia hot on the heels of their launches in Europe and Korea, with a new look, new interior technology, and revised powertrains.
It’s also the first car to feature the Kia Connect suite of connected services.
We won’t be getting the plug-in hybrid at launch, with Kia instead focusing on the more popular hybrid (which will take on the Toyota Corolla Cross) and the electric vehicle (which will help ease demand on the EV6).
The electric variant also crosses over on price with the bigger, higher-tech EV6.
