I think I may have stumbled across the first "review" of the 2017 Kia Niro. Now of course it doesn't include driving or anything along those lines, but they do have a nice write-up here and it's definitely worth the read
A no-compromise vehicle that combines driving enjoyment with eye-catching design, functional utility and hybrid efficiency, the all-new Niro strikes the perfect balance for today’s consumers and stakes claim to a unique position between the hybrid-electric vehicle and CUV segments.
Overall I like the car (19, 718 miles now) at 51.2MPG AVE per Fuelly. Account name is "Our Niro" if anyone wants to check Fuelly.
I like the car but the surging, jerking (whatever you call it) is aggravating. Our car does not show extreme symptoms, but it is noticeable when I does it...
Autocar123 recently posted up some of the key likes and dislikes of the Niro. One of the main criticisms is the lack of an AWD option, but there have already been hints to that setup for the PHEV model. Feel free to share your opinions on their impressions.
This is perhaps the most detailed review on the 2018 Niro PHEV model out there (EX Premium, US market).
The review, Alex on Autos, is considered by many as one of the best car reviewers so I thought I'd share his review for those interested in the PHEV model
