Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Optimised urban and peri-urban trips with no charging to manage. 1st of 12 in Combined consumption (4.8 L/100).

Less suitable for

Home charging access not leveraged. If you have a dedicated outlet, a PHEV would allow daily commutes in pure electric mode.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Tank range, the BMW X2 sDrive20d (1st with 1059 km) takes the lead. If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the BMW X1 xDrive25i (1st with 6.5 s) takes the lead.

Fuel consumption: 4.8 L/100 L/100 (1st of 12 in Combined consumption)

Kia Niro HEV FWD: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the Niro HEV FWD rank in its segment?

Among the 12 C-SUV hybrid 2021–2025, the Niro HEV FWD ranks 1st of 12 in Combined consumption (4.8 L/100, behind the Kia Niro HEV FWD), 8th of 11 in Tank range (875 km, behind the BMW X2 sDrive20d), 12th of 12 in 0–100 km/h (11.0 s, behind the BMW X1 xDrive25i).

What is the range of the Niro HEV FWD?

875 km on a full tank (4.8 L/100 on the combined cycle) - 8th of 11 in Tank range.

How much does the Niro HEV FWD cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
