Blending the freedom of a conventional gas engine with the zero-emissions range of an electric SUV, the 2025 Kia Niro Plug-In Hybrid brings the best of both worlds. It is perfectly sized for city driving, surprisingly spacious inside, and it also comes packed with tech and driver assistance features that make it one of the best small PHEV SUVs you can drive today.
2025 Kia Niro Plug-In Hybrid Performance
The new 2025 Niro PHEV is a subcompact plug-in hybrid SUV designed to redefine your daily commutes. Under its hood, a 1.6L 4-cylinder PHEV engine delivers a combined output of 180 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque, which is more than enough for dashing through town. You can easily switch to gas-only or electric-only power, modes that offer 104 horsepower and 83 horsepower, respectively.
EPA Estimates and Range
More than powerful, this hybrid powertrain is also highly efficient. In hybrid mode, it delivers EPA estimates of 108 MPGe combined, which is way ahead of the competition. In gas-only mode, fuel economy ratings go up to 48 MPG combined, meaning you can go far without breaking the bank at the gas station. You can also enjoy up to 510 miles of gasoline-only range and 33 miles of all-electric range so you can easily power your road trips or errands.
Driver Assistance Technologies
Designed to keep you and your loved ones safe on the road, the new Niro PHEV boasts seventeen standard driver assistance technologies, including forward collision-avoidance assistance with pedestrian, cyclist, and junction turning detection. A range of systems also monitor your blind spots for safer lane-changing or help you stay in your lane. Navigation-based smart cruise control is also standard, enhancing highway cruising.
Infotainment and Connectivity
The cabin’s focal point is a massive 10.25-inch touchscreen with built-in navigation. Running Kia’s latest infotainment system, it boasts smartphone integration features and lots of entertainment options, including SiriusXM Satellite Radio. The system is also compatible with the Kia Connect services and enables remote vehicle control with cabin heating and pre-cooling via the Kia Access mobile app.
Comfort and Convenience Features
With heated ten-way power-adjustable seats at the front and optional heated rear seats, the new Niro PHEV also offers comfort for all passengers. The roomy cabin boasts SynTex and cloth-trimmed seating surfaces, a combination of materials that gives the interior a sleek, sporty feel. Gloss black accent trims also boost the cabin’s visual appeal, while small-item storage and USB ports bring convenience for all passengers.
Cargo Capacity
Whether you have to carry gym bags, luggage, or a large grocery run, the 19.4 cubic feet of rear cargo area is more than enough for most purposes. The rear bench’s 60/40 split-fold design allows you to expand the cargo space up to 54.6 cubic feet with both rear backrests folded.
