Re: Lead time/waiting time

Just got back from my dealer after booking my 2018 Niro PHEV in for some modifications that were needed. The dealer said the reason why it is such a long time waiting for a PHEV is that Kia are holding back production pending the new all electric Niro which my dealer said will be available in the UK...

Re: Home Charger

Hi,My Niro Phev came with a 3 pin domestic lead & and a type 2 charger cable.
I had the non tethered one because if you change your car there is chance that the car may have a different type of charge cable to the Niro.
It is cheaper to buy a new cable than a new charger.

Re: elec drive question

Hi Maybe the car was in hybrid drive and not EV which would account for the petrol engine kicking in.

Re: Home Charger

I get my home charger installed today by Mc Nally it is a Rolec tethered one.Kia were doing a special offer of a free home charger when I bought my Kia Niro3 which I am loving.Previous car was a Toyota Rav 4 hybrid which I found to be a little big for my needs.

Re: New Niro PHEV owner

Hi Bob,I to have tried to store my charging lead under floor but to no avail, also the dealer said that you can get a spare wheel to fit under floor.
I think he must be thinking of the Hybrid version not the PHEV because there is no room under floor.
