KIA has revealed UK pricing and specification details for its new Niro crossover which will be available with hybrid, plug-in hybrid and purely electric powertrains.

The line up will start from £27,745 for the hybrid, £32,775 for the plug-in and £34,995 for the EV version.

All three variants are available in Kia's ‘2', ‘3' or ‘4' grades, with a price rise of £2,750 between each trim level.

The hybrid and plug-in hybrid ‘2' models feature 16-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, cloth upholstery, a dual-height boot floor for extra versatility, rear parking sensors and camera system, an 8.0-inch touchscreen display with DAB radio, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and 4.2-inch supervision cluster.

Niro EV ‘3' models also have a Vehicle-to-Device (V2L) functionality with a three-pin plug socket as standard, with the option of a heat pump. V2L made its debut on the Kia EV6 and means that any unused battery charge can be used to power external electrical appliances, thanks to the bi-directional ability of the car's EV power pack.

The latest car is an important model in Kia's newly eco-focused line-up, which is set to include 14 battery electric models by 2027.

The Niro has become Kia's second best-selling model in the UK since its launch in 2016, with more than 70,000 sold to-date. The fully electric e-Niro - introduced in 2018 - now accounts for 55 per cent of all Niro sales in the UK.

During 2021 the e-Niro was the second best-selling pure electric vehicle in the entire UK market.

Deliveries of the new model are expected to start in the autumn.
