Car Review Kia Niro 2024

Review

Got the 2024 Niro Hybrid automatic for city driving and business trips. In two months, racked up 12,000 km — it consistently saves fuel, around 5.2 L/100 km in the city. The LED headlights illuminate the road perfectly after dark. The cabin is packed with tech: adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, and emergency braking work accurately, providing confidence. However, acceleration is sluggish, and after 100 km/h the engine gets loud, making overtakes require careful timing. At highway speeds, tire and wind noise are quite noticeable. The ground clearance is low — scraped the underbody on a curb twice, so I’m more cautious now. Overall, the Niro is an excellent city hybrid, but for dynamic driving or rough roads, these limitations should be considered.
