The 2025 Kia Niro offers five trims: LX, EX, EX Touring, SX, and SX Touring. The base LX features 16-inch alloy wheels and LED headlights for improved visibility. The EX adds roof rails and rain-sensing windshield wipers for enhanced convenience. The EX-Touring includes 18-inch alloy wheels and a power sunroof, offering a more dynamic look.

The Niro's sophisticated hybrid powertrain combines a fuel-efficient 1.6-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with an advanced electric motor to produce a combined output of 139 horsepower. This intelligent hybrid setup delivers an impressive 195 pound-feet of combined torque, delivering responsive and confident acceleration whether merging onto highways or navigating busy city streets. A refined six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission manages power and offers precisely timed gear changes and highly efficient power delivery while maintaining smooth operation. The vehicle's front-wheel-drive configuration maintains optimal fuel efficiency while ensuring dependable traction and stable handling across various driving conditions.

The 2025 Niro accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 8.9 seconds, reaching a top speed of 106 mph. Its regenerative braking system efficiently captures energy during deceleration, recharging the hybrid battery while providing smooth stopping power. The well-tuned suspension system balances comfort with handling precision, making the Niro equally capable on city streets and highways. Direct and predictable steering response enhances driver confidence.

Its thoughtful cabin design provides you with more available space. The higher trim levels feature a 10.25-inch touchscreen display with navigation, giving you intuitive control of vehicle systems and entertainment features. The EX trims and above include convenient amenities, such as a wireless phone charger and power-adjustable driver's seat with heating functionality. The practical cargo area provides 22.8 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats, expanding to 63.7 cubic feet with the seats folded down. Premium materials, including SynTex and the EX model's cloth seat trim, create an inviting atmosphere.

Advanced driver-assistance technologies provide comprehensive protection. Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go functionality comes standard on EX trims and above, maintaining safe following distances in varying traffic conditions. The auto emergency braking technology includes sophisticated cyclist and junction turning detection on higher trim levels. All models feature essential safety systems, including forward collision warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear automatic braking, and lane-keeping assist. Rear parking sensors on the EX trims and above make parking maneuvers safer and easier.
