KIA NIRO
Utilising clever hybrid technology to keep emissions low, the new Niro is the latest SUV from Kia.
Kia – and Korean manufacturers as a whole – are on a bit of a roll at the moment. The nation’s automakers have been turning out terrific car after terrific car and the latest to emerge under the Kia badge is this, the new Kia Niro leasing deals in the UK.
The Niro is a hybrid SUV, a very on-trend mixture as the craze for SUVs shows no sign of slowing down and hybrid technology becomes increasingly more popular with consumers. It’s powered by a 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine that has a heavy focus on efficiency. Providing drivers with low running costs is the goal of the Kia Niro SUV lease and the car actually holds a world record for efficiency. Back in late 2016, two people from the USA drove the new Kia Niro from Los Angeles to New York. That’s a fair old distance, sure, but it wouldn’t normally get any headlines. However, this particular drive did because it broke the Guinness World Record for the most efficient run from coast-to-coast in the United States. The Niro drank just over 4 tanks of fuel during its 3,715-mile trip and scored an impressive 76.6mpg.
There are currently 2 Niro models on offer – the standard ‘mild’ hybrid and the full plug-in hybrid. The ‘mild’ hybrid gently enhances the engine, whereas the plug-in hybrid takes things a step further, increasing the battery’s influence on the car and drastically improving economy figures. The plug-in Kia Niro hybrid lease deal version of the Niro gives out just 29g/km of CO2 and has a theoretical fuel efficiency of comfortable over 200mpg.
Kia has described the exterior design of the Niro as “un-hybrid”, aiming to give the car a normal feel and look, as opposed to some more dramatic, modern designs seen on other cars of this type. On the plug-in hybrid model Kia has also gone all-in on equipment, packing Kia Niro SUV leasing with a wealth of gadgets including heated leather seats, front and rear parking sensors, autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and Kia’s touchscreen infotainment system with navigation and connected services.

A third pure electric model Niro is expected to follow in the not too distant future, but details on this are still emerging. One thing’s for sure, Kia is definitely building new cars with the future in mind, and the new Niro is a recipe for success in a market where reducing emissions is crucial.
