Hi knea, Would maintaining 2 sets of wheels - current tyres on the 18" alloys and winter tyres on steel wheels be an option? If you can find 16" steel rims that fit the niro would be better than keeping the alloys on and having to pay for the tyres to be changed over each year. Also they u...

I don't know if this will help as this doesn't refer to the built in niro system but Tom-tom can be a bit temperamental on it's settings. I have a Start-60 model and can set "fastest route" or "eco route". Ticking Eco will take me down some very interesting single track country l...

I average 13k miles/year and never had to replace pads between services. With other manufacturers the service interval is 20k - replacing pads 5 times in tha...

I wonder if the relocation is only for the U.S. market?
