History/Overview

The Kia Niro EV is the Korean brand’s compact all-electric wagon/crossover model. It’s one of three Niro variants, all of which come with electrified powertrains. There are also plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and regular hybrid versions covered in separate buyer’s guide entries.

What’s New/Key Changes From Last Year

For 2021, Kia has added a mid-range EX+ trim level that makes a few comfort items more affordable than they are in the top-end SX Touring model.

Available Trims

Kia offers the Niro in EX, EX+ and SX Touring trims. All three use an electric motor that drives the front wheels through a single-speed transmission.

Standard Features

On the outside, all Niro EV trims get 17-inch alloy wheels, auto on/off headlights with high beam assist, LED daytime running lights, fog lights, heated/power-folding/power-adjustable side mirrors, roof rails, and passive keyless entry.

Inside, EX has cloth/leatherette upholstery, automatic A/C, an 8.0-inch infotainment display, and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay.

EX+ adds heated front seats, a heated/leather-trimmed steering wheel, and a climate control heat pump.

SX Touring trim gains LED headlights and taillights, a sunroof, chrome exterior trim, leather seating, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, heated rear seats, ventilated front seats, a cargo cover, luggage net, high-gloss interior trim, a 10.25-inch touchscreen, wireless smartphone charging, a 110-volt power outlet, auto-dimming rearview mirror, LED cabin and mood lighting, radar cruise control, and a Harman Kardon stereo.

SX Touring is also where you’ll find the Niro EV’s driver safety assists: blind spot monitoring, lane keep/lane follow assist, driver attention alert, forward collision avoidance, front/rear parking sensors, and rear cross traffic alert.

Fuel Economy

Kia’s energy consumption estimates for the Niro EV are 1.9/2.3 Le/100 km (city/highway).

Competition

A few of the Niro EV’s key competitors come from within the Hyundai Motor Group to which Kia belongs: the Kia Soul EV, the Hyundai Ioniq Electric, and the Hyundai Kona Electric.

Others include the Chevrolet Bolt EUV, the Volkswagen ID.4, and the Nissan Leaf.

Recall Information

Safety recalls issued by the manufacturer and Transport Canada for this vehicle model.

Recall #

Date

System Affected

Model Years

Manufacturer Recall #: RC216

Units Affected: 2604

Type: Compliance Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a problem with the rearview camera could cause the rearview camera image not to display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the vehicle is reversing. 
 
Safety Risk: 
A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. 
 
Corrective Actions: 
Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the rearview camera.

Manufacturer Recall #: SC088

Units Affected: 2191

Type: Safety TC

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, water could enter the integrated electronic brake (IEB) and cause it to corrode. If this happens, the IEB motor could fail and cause reduced braking. 
Note: This service campaign only affects certain Niro EV models. 
 
Safety Risk: 
Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash. 
 
Corrective Actions: 
Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the integrated electronic brake. The dealer will apply silicone to the IEB bolt hole or replace the IEB, as necessary.

Manufacturer Recall #: INC003

Units Affected: 647384

Type: Inconsequential

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the compliance label may be missing information in French. The words listed on the label for "Tires", "Rims", "Front" and "Rear" appear in English only, when they should be listed as "Tires/Pneus", "Rims/Jantes", "Front/Avant" and "Rear/Arriere". Canadian regulations require this information to be listed on the label in both English and French. 

Safety Risk: 
These small errors do not affect vehicle safety. 

Corrective Actions: 
This is not a recall. Kia has corrected the compliance label for all new vehicles.

Manufacturer Recall #: RS183

Units Affected: 13037

Type: Safety Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, fluid could leak onto the printed circuit board for the hydraulic clutch actuator (HCA). If this happens, the circuit board could short circuit.  
 
Safety Risk: 
A short circuit could create the risk of an engine compartment fire while driving. 
 
Corrective Actions: 
Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the hydraulic clutch actuator (HCA), and replace it if necessary. The technician will also install a new fuse for the HCA to reduce the risk of a fire.
