Hello fellow Niro owners, just purchased a fully loaded 2018 EX. Hope this car will treat me well. Its beautiful inside out and helping the planet

Welcome aboard. Hope you enjoy the car - we do ours (EX Purchased in FEB 2017).

No significant issue with ours - do feel a bit of the surging, stutter, whatever, to call it that some others feel (and a few have had a major issue with).

Recommend start a FUELLY account for your car. Good way to keep your MPG record and let others in the world know.

Thanks, will do. I do feel the sluggishness in the gas from stop, but coming from a V6 to a hybrid thats prob expected. I hope this car will keep me happy

Have you tried sport mode? It removes the sluggishness. I put it in sport mode if I'm pulling out into busy traffic. Then shift back to eco mode after I get up to speed. It kills mpg so I only do it when I really kind of need the response and power.

Ah. did not know that. I have to really sit with this and try everything out this weekend. Just got the car yesterday. Lots of features in the 2018 model I have to get familiar with. I dont even know how to switch to sports mode, lol.

Congratulations. I am in talks to buy one in NY, was curious what price point you got in NJ.

To shift to sport mode just push the shift lever to the left after you put it in drive.

Maybe some day I’ll actually see one of these other NJ Niros on the roads (saw one once but before I bought mine)!
