New Kia e-Niro EV full review – the perfect 300-mile range family electric car 2022



The all new Kia e-Niro EV could be the best value 300 mile electric crossover. Formally called the e-Niro, this new EV can also be purchased as a PHEV and hybrid. The last version became Britain’s best selling EV behind Tesla’s 3 because it is a practical, excellent value near 300 mile car with that magical 7 year warranty.

Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.

In this episode Jonny Smith reviews the £34,995 new version, which features bolder styling (the last one was a bit conservative), has a slightly longer range, is slightly lighter, charges a smidge quicker and a tad more boot space.

The e-Niro (as was) still fundamentally features the same 201bhp (150kW) motor with 7 sec 0-62, and the same LG Chem 64kWh batt pack, but now travels 285 miles WLTP. It comes with much of the tech and parts from its EV6 larger brother (like the useful V2L external power source plug), and can be ordered with a tow bar for the first time.
