This is a test of a disguised prototype on unfamiliar roads in Korea and for less than an hour behind the wheel.

It would be a mug’s game to try to give a definitive verdict, therefore, but what’s clear from this first chance to get behind the wheel of the Niro is that it will likely deliver to all of Kia’s usual standards.

Until we learn the rest, we can only conclude that Kia has a very capable car that is worthy of success, if not guaranteed it.

There is no confirmation of pricing for the Kia Niro, although the firm’s suggestion that it crosses the best of the Nissan Qashqai and Toyota Prius suggests a starting price in the region of £25,000.

This review confirms my hopes that the Niro will live up to the standards that KIA set with previous cars. Very good to know.
