The new Kia Niro petrol-electric hybrid has been unveiled at the Chicago motor show.

The Niro hits the sweet spot by offering the best combination of outstanding mpg, an engaging driving experience, utility, and most importantly, a stunning design that doesn't shout 'hybrid,'" said Orth Hedrick, vice president product planning Kia Motors America (KMA).

It's a compact crossover with the latest Kia design cues, including the signature radiator grille and swept-back headlights, but it's a little more conservative at the rear.
