I thoroughly enjoyed this video. So detailed. It helped me understand about this particular hybrid car. Very impressive and I am now tempted to lease or buy this car. Thanks, a lot

Nicely done. You know your product and you present it well, so well that I am adding the Niro to my shopping list.

Fantastic review, clear and concise, and no ANNOYING music track, excellent

Awesome Review. Very well spoken, detailed, and now I want one lol.

I'm doing a school project on buying a car. Because I can not drive yet and do not know much about cars I found this very helpful! Thank you for making this. :D

Very good review. I have a Kia Niro hybrid and I´m very pleased with it. Easy and nice to drive with good comfort.

Great in-depth review... good job!

Thanks Peter, since I bought my 2018 Niro I haven't had time to read the manual; this video helped a lot. Absolutely love the car and the after market service is stellar, good job!

Goooooooood job explaining the car. I wish I could have you review any cars I decide to purchase in the future. Because of you my mom and daughter are seriously considering the Niro. Thank you

Absolutely the best videos by a "Car Salesman" on the Internet! Thank you Peter. My wife and I have a 2018 Kia Niro Touring. Love virtually everything about the vehicle including the additional safety tech alluded to in this review. The Touring Model also has heated rear seats AND a 115 Volt Electrical Outlet in the back. The front seats are both heated and ventilated. The cooled leather seats were really nice on the hot days of summer. Biggest gripes with the Niro??? It's Kia Canada's insistence on Black Interiors. I mean come on. How many warranty claims have manufacturers ever had for interior colour? It's just another SKU number to put in your system to offer the Light Grey interior available in the Niro in other markets. I don't care if they want to provide all dealer stock with black interiors BUT at least let me order the vehicle I WANT if I'm prepared to wait for it to be shipped from Korea. The other gripe is that although the Steering Wheel and Seats are heated, they're pretty slow to come up to temp compared to other vehicles I've been in, even on the highest setting, but they do get there eventually. That's about it for negatives. Like Peter mentioned, it's relatively easy to exceed the stated fuel economy in these Niros. The Touring Model is the LEAST efficient Niro due to it's larger wheels and tires along with the weight increase associated with the extra options. The "Official Canadian Rating for this model is 5.4 litres/100 km. Over our first 5,800 kilometers, we have averaged 4.69 litres/100 km "true mileage", ie every fill-up tracked in a spreadsheet as opposed to the onboard GOM (Guess-O-Meter) which indicated we achieved a more optimistic 4.5 litres per 100 km. Overall, we LOVE our Niro!

Outstanding review! I didn’t watch this before I picked up my new 2019 Ex Premium Gravity Blue HEV today but can say this is the type of review that anyone buying a car should see....real! I did a lot of research before my purchase and agree 100% with this

Thanks for the video and review!! Can’t wait to test drive and potentially purchase soon!! Wish your dealership was here in Washington D.C.!!!

Great Job! I have been looking for a video like this on the 2019 but I have not seen many.

I was not considering the Niro until this review thank you

Excellent video! You have a talent as a vehicle reviewer. Please continue!

Wow, looking at buying the used model of this and needed this in depth video. Perfect!

Awesome review! My Kia Niro is coming end of July 2020.. can't wait!

Great video! I'd love to hear more about the Optima. I think they're pretty slick looking especially on the higher trims. Any plans on a full walkthrough video on the latest models?

Agree with Clayton Root, good video. I'd like a few more glamour shots of the front.

Found this video Doing research. Totaled my Prius and my heart broke. This one seems to as good as my Prius. Thank you for posting

Great vedio, we just bought this KIA hybrid. Your vedio helped me.

GREAT VIDEO! WE BOUGHT A 2019 TOURING [JAN 2019] AND ITS OVER THE TOP! TOTALLY LOADED AND WE LOVE THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANS WITH SPORT MODE, NO CVT DRONE FOR US! HANDLING IS AWESOME TOO WITH THE 18 INCH WHEELS AND MICHELIN TIRES...SMOOTH ON ALL ROADS ALSO THE INTERIOR IS SUPER WIDE!! ONLY STRANGE THING WAS THE PASSENGER SEAT IS MANUAL, WHICH WE FIND VERY STRANGE IN THE TOURING MODEL..BUT ITS OK AND WE KNEW IT WHEN WE BOUGHT IT. NEEDLESS TO SAY WE WERE/ARE VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE CAR AND THE PRICE!! WOW ONLY $33600...IF CHEVY/FORD/CHRYSLER MADE THIS CAR IT WOULD BE $42K+ PLUS IT GETS LIKE ALMOST 50MPG!! DANG, DOES IT GET ANY BETTER?? LOL!!

I work at Kia of Fort Walton beach in Florida and I bought the 2019 Kia Niro EX premium last 2019 I love mine so much brand new

Good video. Helps a lot

great review, thanks :)

Excellent video! I purchased a new 2011 Nissan Leaf back in 2012 for my business and it's a great car but there are times it needs to be driven further so we're thinking of purchasing the Niro hybrid EV or hyprid plug in. Thanks for the info.

this was really helpful ...

Great review!

I got the LX trim about a month ago! I love everything except for the drivers seat. I use to daily drive my stinger. Unfortunately the LX trim doesn’t offer lumbar support and is painful to sit in on long drives.

Love my new 2019 S touring in Platinum Graphite with the Black 18 inch wheels.

I saw someone driving this the other day and kinda liked it. It may lack the styling of the Toyota CH-R or cool look of the Kona, but that MPG for the price sounds pretty appealing. Im single and this looks a bit more of a family car, so we'll see.

I really like this Kia for its mpg and the fact that it's a standard hybrid able able ok charge its battery on it's own is even better.

Watching from Ireland , great job

Peter Peter Peter... Like a drug, keep filling me with nourishing info... You're a "Pauser/Rewinder"... anyone gonna talk to me while gorging on your pieces gets me pausing, then playing again so I don't miss a droplet, that's obviously when we're not watching on the big TV *together*. Fantastic engaging, informative, passion driven stuff.... Either buying from you guys or another dealer will pump the Kia tills FULL. Great job... Fill his rota with KZfaq segments!!! "a nerd like me" translates to, "intelligent, curious, savvy, excited, knowledge sponge" converts to, "future devout Kia lover/buyer" 👌🎯🏆👏🚗👍😉 you've just about tipped me towards this amazing car, in UK with some PPI burning a hole forget Seat Ateca/Arona or Hyundai Ioniq, poss Sportage but it's, "follow the Kia-brick road" for me now!

Very nice overview, Peter. Is there any word yet on expected release date and estimated pricing for the full EV version of the Niro in Canada? The wireless charging and Android Auto / Apple Car Play are great features, the Tesla Model 3 doesn't even have those yet!

Have you got a video explaining the gearshift on the console? I noticed a plus and minus on the gearshift how do use it.

Here is my review for buying one last week, I drove to work all week 9 miles each way I filled it up on Saturday it cost me just $3.89 cents for a week just going back and fourth to work it is comfortable I love ❤️ my new car took it to week end to Fort Lauderdale from west Palm gets less mileage on interstate, best mileage in city totally a roomy, comfortable and gas sipper you will ❤️ sorry I didn’t get this a few months sooner

Great great video!

Very well detailed. Thanks for the review. I gotta ask will Kia make a truck?

Excellent Review Sir; And I watch a lot of Poignant Review Channels. Regardless of the Car in Question; This was one of the most thorough and honest that I have seen. Good job for whatever it is worth from some slob like me. 😆 Sincerely, SSgt Charles Collins USAF (Ret.)🇺🇸

Excellent video review! I wish I could buy a car from you (Chicago)!

Mine -- and we love her!!!

Love my 2018 6k miles in had battery & fuel pump recall already though lol but it’s great. 👍

Very well done, informative video. I’m trying to decide between the Niro and the 2019 Subaru Forester.

I’m thinking of getting the 2017 model or the 2013 hatchback for my first car. Are those good models? Also can this cas run purely in gas, or would I also have to charge it?

Heated seats must be standard on Canadian market cars but I doubt if it is in the U.S.

Are there all weather mats and a cargo tray available for this car?

Hot review

I would like to know what the turning radius is like. The Prius has one of the best and that’s very important to me. Truly in the market for a new car but turning radius is important. Hope to get an answer.

This guy is awesome!

How safe is the battery under the rear seat if the vehicle is in an accident?

Just your shoulder couldn't see inside of the car .still nice car look like mini Cooper from behind .

I just bought a 2019 Kia Niro Hybrid and I love it. But I don't have heated seats so I don't think that comes standard. Also I do not have a charging pad for my phone.

Hi, when will the EV version be available?

What's the cost to replace the hybrid battery, (including battery charge and service labour) when its time to do so after the 10yr warranty expires?

Hi is the colour gravity blue? Thanks in advance!

Very late to the party, but can anyone tell me if any of the Niro models offer remote start?

When will the new body style come out in the Niro?

Dose it have a built in GPS map ?

Does this have remote start? Is it AWD?

I live in Windsor, Ontario. How much will it cost?

the new Insight looks phenomenal, but IDK if I could live with that transmission drooooone. This vehicle seems like a better overall package (with a superior warranty to boot).

I was going to buy a Forte 5 GT until I viewed this Niro video. Now I don't know which one to buy. I'm upgrading from a 5 door Versa. I like how the Forte sedan drives but prefer hatchbacks. Being able to see everything through the Soul was great but found the trunk space was too small. Won't be able to go to Costco after my tennis game. When I look at trunk space I look at it with the passengers' seat up. Want a car I can get around for short summer hikes & weekend camping trips within the city, & carrying my tennis gear. Any suggestions will be helpful. Thanks.

This very complete review is on the 2019 Kia Niro Hybrid, on the 3rd out of 5 trims. Sometimes he'd say if it was just new on the 2019. But, to owners of the 2018 or 2017 Kia Niro years, and/or lower trims, I'd be curious to hear -- have most of these very cool & intuitive-sounding things just been introduced in the 2019, or do you also have them? Maybe Brantford Kia has done a walk-around for those years' models, too? I'd welcome anyones' comments about whether their slightly older models come close to these pinnacles?! Such as...handling, lumbar-smart seats, warning lights in your side view mirror, very clear rear camera quality, smooth brakes, etc. I'm grateful for this great detail in any case, but now, would I be happy with anything less in comparison?! - Thanks, Kathleen

How many mpg does it get?

When is 2020 niro coming to canada?

Does it have a spare tire.

What brand of gas

Is there any way to get an LX or EX without the roof rails? I'd like some of the options not available on the FE trim, but the FE trim gets the best MPG due to not having roof rails. Also the FE is limited in colors whereas the LX and EX have a better selection of colors.

What’s shocking and amazing is that it has a 6 speed, and not a cvt

What coolor is steal gray?

4 liters getting 100 km? that's 62 miles per gallon.. is the US version different? I have this car and I drive I think pretty good and I have only been able to get it up to 52 miles per gallon.. so maybe there is a difference?

I love this crossover because is looks more like a hatchback, it’s not as tall as other crossovers, and it looks nice

Price?

How does this compare with Hyundai Kona hybrid?

I love Korean cars🇰🇷

I don’t understand why people were doing review for those car actually can’t buy on the market! I live at SoCal I have call dealer within my 200 miles range and there were no inventory since three months ago! Forget about it, don’t let the Tesla lie gets you again!

Introduced in 2017, you had to select the Touring trim level in order to get a heated steering wheel. One of the reasons we went for thee Touring that year. Enthusiastic, if a bit manufactured presentation. Certainly not a deliberate misrepresentation, just pokes a hole in the overall delivery of his “favorite,” but not fully familiar Kia

That's strange, I've just ordered a Niro EX, which is the cheapest version, it has features like lane keeping, emergency braking and smart cruise control. Yet you mention lane keeping end emergency braking as a feature you can get (I assume on the top model) and you never mentioned anything about smart cruise control. But the EX doesn't have powered or heated seats (not that I need it) or blind spot detection. I guess different countries get different features?

Csak magyarnyelvü ismertetést fogadok el.

I wish the passenger seat was fully adjustable, too. The driver's seat really spoils ya. When I ride shotgun, my butt isn't happy.

"Plug-in Hybrid Niro??? Not in Ontario as I understand it from my local Kia Dealership. Rob Ford killed that idea with the elimination of the Plug-In Rebate. I was told the Kia is NOT going to bring it to Ontario, unless they've had a change of heart. It MAY still be available in Quebec.

The high point of this is him telling us this car is no longer his favorite Kia? Really??

무슨말인지 못알아 듣겠다

Very Dated body styling

NO SPARE TIRE ! ! ! I hate that crap...

21 minutes of continus bla bla and no driving experience to show!!! What a waste of time
