The EX boasts a 10.25-inch touch screen, a power driver’s seat, and additional safety features, such as blind-spot monitoring. The top-tier SX Touring includes a sunroof, ventilated front seats, and a Harman Kardon sound system.

All Niro Hybrid trims share a 1.6-liter engine working with an electric motor, delivering around 53 mpg combined. The Niro Hybrid stands out for its eco-friendly materials, including recycled plastics and animal-free upholstery. It offers a spacious interior and ample cargo space, making it a practical choice if you seek efficiency without sacrificing comfort.

The Niro Plug-In Hybrid Configurations

Both trims of the 2025 Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid provide an appealing middle ground between the hybrid and fully electric models. The EX includes a 10.25-inch touch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Also featured is Kia’s DriveWise suite of safety systems, which includes adaptive cruise control and lane-following assist. The SX Touring trim adds a sunroof, a premium audio system, heated and ventilated front seats, and other luxury touches.

Providing power for the Niro Plug-in Hybrid is a 1.6-liter engine working with an electric motor. This combination delivers an estimated 33 miles of electric-only range, making it ideal for daily commutes with minimal fuel consumption. A unique feature is the green zone drive mode, which automatically switches to electric power in designated areas, such as residential zones, further enhancing efficiency.

The Niro EV Configurations

The 2025 Kia Niro EV is the fully electric version of the lineup, available in two trims. The Wind model offers a 10.25-inch dual-screen setup, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a suite of safety features that includes highway driving assist. The Wave trim adds premium features such as a Harman Kardon sound system, a sunroof, and ventilated front seats.

A 64.8 kWh battery powers the Niro EV, providing a range of 253 miles on a single charge. The vehicle’s many features include regenerative braking with paddle shifters. This system allows one-pedal driving, a mode in which the Niro EV accelerates when you press the accelerator and brakes as you ease the pressure. Add its ability to bring the car to a complete stop and you have the ultimate efficiency and driving comfort. The Niro EV also boasts an eco-friendly interior with recycled materials and vegan leather, making it a sustainable choice in the compact SUV market.
