Niro has Industry Domination Written All Over It

[Rob]

The subcompact-crossover segment seems to be all the rage these days in the UK's car market. The Nissan Juke has swayed buyers with its compact size and only mother-could-love looks, the Mokka is parked in nearly all school playgrounds and so forth.

Kia has taken notice. In a bid to nearly triple its lineup of "green" cars Kia has developed the Niro, a subcompact-crossover that is sure to bring the heat to its crossover competitors and also the environmentally conscious buyer.

So why is this Kia a game changer? It is essentially the perfect combination of what appeals to the mass-consumer.

It's affordable and fuel efficient. Safety features include reinforced steel A and B pillars and all of the standard driver safety features buyers look for these days; adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring etc. The 106.3-inch wheelbase is perfectly sized for the UK's roads and car parks and a raised seating position will enable a sense of size and safety for the driver.
