Kia Niro Hybrid 1.6 SX (A) Review
10 Oct 2022  |  Kia Reviews
Kia's Niro Hybrid now has a futuristic yet approachable look, and the largest gripe some had with its predecessor has also been fixed.

What We Dislike
The higher SX trim level is the one to get, though it would have been great if the price disparity is smaller

Best choice for family car  Posted on 22 Apr 2024

Review
The KIA Niro Hybrid has exceeded all my expectations. From its sleek design to its powerful engine, every aspect of this car exudes excellence. The interior is not only stylish but also incredibly comfortable, making long drives a breeze. Safety features like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control provide peace of mind on the road. The spacious trunk is a godsend, easily accommodating all my gear and groceries.

What truly sets this car apart, though, is the exceptional service provided by the dealership. The salesperson, Dom Wong, went above and beyond to ensure I was well-informed about the car's features and capabilities. Their professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction are truly commendable.

Review
Coming as a driver of over 20 years, the 2024 Kia Niro Hybrid EX already has some really advanced safety features put together in an aesthetically pleasing package. Every pleasant drive (thus far within the first week of getting one) is not without our equally pleasant amd top-notch service experience with our sales consultant, Mr Alvin Tham of C&C Kia, who has identified and addressed our various needs while in the process of getting a new car. Aside to specific needs-wise, he has been instrumental in familiarising me with various controls during delivery, and addressing my queries post-delivery. This is coming from a non-hybrid driver of past years where driving has almost been taken for granted and where knowledge has to be learnt, or unlearnt to relearn, and Alvin's assistance is reassuring on this respect. Kudos to Mr Alvin Tham of C&C Kia once more! Looking forward to more great journeys!

Review
I've driven two other models (Toyota Altis the past 7 years, Mercedes E-class before that), and wanted to switch to a car which is more environmentally friendly (i.E. Fuel efficient), could accomodate 2 adults and potentially 2 kids comfortably, and has a sportier look. Staying in a HDB estate with limited charging points for EV, I looked within the hybrid SUV class and settled on the Kia Niro Hybrid (EX). First time owning and driving a Kia, and I must say it's my favourite so far. The in car entertainment features are adequate, overall comfort level is high even with aircon at level 1/2 (out of 5) amidst the hot weather, and the fuel economy has been excellent (~4.5L per 100km so far after more than 200km driven and frequently on roads with fair number of start/stops).

My salesperson Dom Wong is also very proactive in responding to my questions leading up to the car purchase and after car collection which I appreciate.

What I like
- Fuel economy
- Spaciousness for my family
- Lane assist function is helpful
- Sporty look (I had gone for Cityscape Green)

What I do not like
- Engine start / stop button being in the middle panel. Would prefer it to be on the driver side below the wheel

Probably the best car in its class  Posted on 09 Apr 2024

Love the car even though i took the EX model. Has everything you need and unless you are looking for more equipment and functions then go for the SX. Otherwise the ex comfort pack is really good enough. Smooth drive, comfortable and super fuel efficient. Feels like a contential car.

Also Dom from C&C made the entire purchase pleaseant and fuss free. He is fast, knowledgeable and i highly recommended looking for him should you want to purchase a niro.

I drive the car for a week, feel great, interior and exterior are excellent to me, engine is quite and the drive is fun, in additional safety features like child lock and auto alignment is really good stuff that can save your life, back trunk is big and really can fit in many stuffs especially I have 2 children.

The salesperson is Dom Wong, he is very professional in explaining and show me the car features. Thumb up for him

Great Compact SUV  Posted on 03 Apr 2024

Review
The Niro was the first compact SUV we saw and became our benchmark.

It set the benchmark really high as the other cars we saw after did not catch our attention as much as the Niro.

Special thanks to Dom Wong for guiding us through the purchase process and working on short notice throughout.

Perfect family car! Power on demand when you need it.  Posted on 05 Mar 2024

Review
No doubt a big contender in the line-up of hybrids of 2024. Interior is super spacious, much more than other SUV crossover. The features, become intuitive after several usage. Much thought has been put into the design, including - Child Lock feature at a touch of a button. If you like your car clean and spotless of watermarks, then the grooves that make the car sporty will drive you insane. The drive, torque is amazing, takes humps like a champ. More importantly, our salesperson Dom Wong, whom attended to us was non-judgmental as we were just looking around. His knowledge and own experience which he shared freely with us was the game-changer.

Review
We decided to purchase this car after many recommendations from friends and family. The car is aesthetically pleasing but could do better with more body paint colour choices. On the technical side, the car ride is smooth and quiet, perfect for baby and toddler sleeping the car. The car sensors fitted for safe driving are adequate. Fuel consumption is superb as I was able to hit 3.4 L / 100 Km average driving from home to work and back. The entire purchase was made easy for first time owner like us through the dedication and professionalism of Dominique Wong at C&C. Overall we are loving it.

What I like
Automated features such as auto headlight and wipers to allow driver to be more focus on driving. Excellent fuel consumption. Effortless steering.

What I do not like
Need to literally slam the rear seat backwards to lock it in an upright position. Closing of doors require quite a fair bit of strength. Good to have an option to disable the infotainment screen at the first page or screensaver instead of having to navigate through multiple pages in settings menu to off display.

The design of the vehicle is beautiful both interior as well as exterior. Interior is spacious and sits comfortably when fully loaded.

Quiet drive with minimal engine noise. Prospective buyers considering Hybrid vehicles should go for this Niro Hybird test drive to feel its potential.

Kia Niro, C&C review  Posted on 10 Jul 2023

Review
Really beautiful car both on the inside and out. Interior is spacious and doesn't have the cheap feel to it.
The drive feels premium mostly. Engine noise is minimal, steering is effortless and the ride feels really stable and strong. The auto transitioning from electrical mode to combustion engine is smooth most of the time. Except for occasions when going up short slopes at low speed, the transition could be smoother, but might be a problem with my driving pattern.

Special thanks to Dom Wong from Cycle & Carriage for the great and fuss free sales support and exceptional after sales service.

For a 1.6 hybrid with a 129hp I can say that it's beyond my expectation.
I'm not a Kia fan however I've met a very good sales exec name Dominique Wong at lengkee. We went for a test drive with 5 pax in it and this baby didn't disappoint us.
