OVERVIEW

Niro-EV-Kia

With long and low proportions, the 2021 Kia Niro EV looks more like a tall wagon than the crossovers that clog expressways and parking lots. Kia’s all-electric ute, which is also available with gas-only and plug-in-hybrid powertrains that we review separately, is attractive and packed with desirable standard features, including a host of driver assists. The Niro EV has an EPA-rated range of 239 miles, which is good for most driving duties besides long road trips. Hooked up to a 100-kW fast charger, it can replenish 80 percent of its battery in about an hour. While the 2021 Niro EV isn’t exciting in any way and is only sold in select states, it’s a surprisingly refined and satisfying subcompact crossover that also happens to be an EV.
