I have owned a Niro since 2020, and they are definitely a good investment. Though it costs a little more to purchase due to being a hybrid, you more than compensate with smooth ride and excellent gas mileage.Dec 06, 2023

The kia niro looks to be a suv. But its a compact SUV with very little backseat room..its too small unless youre looking for a compact suv. Didnt like the roadnoise on our test drive Feb 14, 2023
