The Kia Niro is a five-door hybrid sport utility vehicle that has been available to purchase since 2017. The Niro is beloved by consumers and critics because it looks, feels and drives like a traditional SUV. This is something that few other hybrid vehicles have been able to pull off. Kia has also managed to sell the Niro at a very reasonable price, which is another major concern with hybrid vehicles. Since the Niro was just unveiled a few years ago, no visual changes were made for the 2019 model year.
