Just purchased my 2017 Niro Touring yesterday and love it so far.
Still learning what everything does. Really love the 40+ mpg over my 17 mpg Ford F-150, especially when I drive 66 miles round trip 5 days a week.

Welcome Michael. I'm in a similar boat...just bought my Niro on Monday. I drive about 48-50 miles RT for work. We are retiring my wife's old 2000 Camry (which we weren't sure was going to last much longer) while my wife takes my old 2005 Toyota Highlander.

I'm going from ~21-22 MPG (probably on a good day) to a Niro Plug-in Hybrid. It seems I can "just" make a one-way trip on full EV. So, for now, it seems I'm able to make my commute without using a drop of gas!!! LOVING THAT!

    I'm getting ready to drive from LA to Boston in my Niro. I'm wondering if anyone has purchased the optional spare tire kit and if they have any comments about storing it in the car.

    Purchased our Niro PHEV last weekend. This vehicle replaces my 20 year old Odyssey. So LOTS of new things. Still getting through manuals and downloading apps lol. I am interested in better understanding how to make the most of the EV/HEV modes and understanding how the hybrid and electrical...

  3. Hi From Canada

    Looking forward to see how my new (second day) espresso brown NIRO does in the Ontario winter. Gulp. Have my snows on but first time ever driving a front wheel drive in the winter. Going to have to choose my driving days but that’s ok since I’m retired and driving less. :D

  5. Hello from Texas

    Hi everyone! I never thought I’d drive a Kia, but my girlfriend (2014 Soul owner) convinced me to check them out. I’m very grateful she did! I love this car. It’s been very practical and I love making a game out of getting the best mpg I can. Anyway, hello and happy to be a part of the family.

  6. Maintenance records

    Kia Niro Owners Registry And Check In Area
    I was wondering if maintenance records would be accessible online for any work done on my Niro by my dealer. The owners page https://owners.kia.com/content/owners/en/dashboard.html/ seems to imply that it will be but my owners page doesn't have my dealership oil changes listed plus the...
