Re: Kia e-Niro
I was looking at the e-Niro today online and was amazed by the very drab range of colour options available. Why is it that KIA UK don't seem to think that UK Niro buyers deserve the very same range of coloour options available to European countries ? France, for instance, has choice of eight colour ...

Re: Goodbye Niro, Hello Ioniq
After reading your post about your switch from Niro to Ionique I went to my local Hyundai dealer today. But I was surprised to find that the ionique is a Saloon car like the Optima - not a Crossover like the Niro. So it's so much a lower entry and exit point and no good to me for that alone as I wan...

Re: Apple Car Play - wireless
So far as I know, and I use, Apple Play (and Android) requires a USB connection to activate the software and the voice operated commands. So, unfortunately, I have to have a slightly messy white cable hanging around. But I could be wrong !

Clear White vs. White Pearl. What's the difference ?
Still trying to decide whether to change to a Niro HEV 3 with less features than my present Niro HEV 4 just because I can then get it in Runway Red. Or whether to just change to another Niro HEV 4, with all the bells and whistles I like, which isn't available in Runway Red but is available in Pearl ...

Re: Driving tips to charge battery better.
Bruiserboymeasures I don't think you quite have the right idea of how the Niro HEV works - which is significantly different from the way that the PHEV works. i I have had a HEV for almost three years now and It runs moistly with the battery charge level at half charge. That's because the electric mo...

KIA UK E-mailed me a Niro brochure !
Just been sent an e-mail from KIA UK with this very comprehensive e-mail brochure which covers the whole Niro 'family' of cars. Very interesting to see them all covered together and be able to compare the colour range available for each model. Still wondering why they offer such boring colours but t...

Re: Colour Options - Niro HEV 4.
I've written to KIA UK Corporate, through my local dealer's Sales Manager, so let's see what they say ? Meanwhile, I've been doing some trawling around the 'net. In the US I could buy their top of the HEV line Niro Touring in Runway Red - no problem ! This equates to the HEV 4 in the UK. In Germany ...

Colour Options - Niro HEV 4.
I have just spent an interesting fifteen minutes banging my head against a brick wall trying to get an answer out of KIA UK Customer Service. In the end the charming and very polite young lady was just going round and round in circles of corporate speak. She kept repeating that she didn't have an an...

Re: PHEV OR HEV? High Mileage
Diesel ? Isn't that a dirty word nowadays ? I can't think why anyone with a view to the future would buy a diesel car any more as they are going to be worthless in the next few years the way that the environment controls are going here and elsewhere in the World.

Re: New Owner
Great ! As I got the very first Niro in York, almost three years ago, the very first versions of the First Edition didn't yet have Apple Car Play installed, just Android Auto. But I prevailed upon Kia through my local dealer and after much nattering of them about nine months later I git them to upgr...
