Hi ruzzz,

Welcome to the forum. We've got to wait until 8 Nov to pick ours up - model 2 red - 1st Kia.

Kia Customer Services have confirmed that UK niro's from Model Year 18 will have the 12V battery as part of the main Li-ion battery under the rear seat.

Those speed ratings are interesting:

H = upto 130mph
V = upto 149mph
W = upto 168mph

Is Kia not telling us something???

looks like you got an American market tag - where is Quality Control when you need them???

P.S. I'd be inclined to experiment with 37psi all round and reduce it if the ride gets too uncomfortable.

Hi,

The tag with the tyre pressures should be specific to the wheels fitted.

That's something worth knowing. I usually keep mine 1 or 2 psi above standard recommended pressure. Didn't the TPMS register a drop?

Thanks, gimball. That's very reassuring and I'm really looking forward to getting the niro. Month and a half to go and counting ............

Hi John,

That's good to know. I live in a particularly hilly town/area so if I can get anything over 35mpg I'll be well pleased. My current car struggles to get 30mpg locally but mid 40's on a long run.

Thanks for your input, John - really appreciated.

Brilliant, thanks John.
