Entry-level Wind models feature 17-inch alloy wheels, LED daytime running lights, and heated side mirrors for a sharp, functional profile. Mid-range Wind+ versions add features such as a power sunroof and enhanced lighting for better visibility and style. The top Wave trim delivers premium wheel designs, full LED projection headlights, and distinctive accents that give it a more upscale presence. Across the range, roof rails support extra cargo, power-folding mirrors simplify tight parking, and a hands-free power liftgate makes loading effortless. Body-colour details and aerodynamic shaping keep the appearance clean and modern, no matter the trim.
Performance and Range
The 2026 Kia Niro EV uses a single permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor that produces 201 horsepower and 188 lb.-ft. of torque. Power goes to the front wheels through a single-speed reduction gear, providing immediate response and smooth, linear acceleration from a standstill. The 64.8 kWh lithium-ion polymer battery delivers an estimated driving range of 407 km on a full charge, with NRCan-rated efficiency at 1.9 Le/100 km city, 2.3 Le/100 km highway, and 2.1 Le/100 km combined. An 11 kW onboard charger supports Level 2 charging, replenishing the battery in about 7.5 hours from empty, while DC fast charging handles quicker top-ups for longer trips. Independent suspension delivers composed handling and a comfortable ride over varied surfaces. Regenerative braking captures energy to extend range and adds precise one-pedal driving control. Drive modes allow adjustments for maximum efficiency or more engaging performance depending on conditions.
