Pros	Cons
Fantastic to drive	Expensive to buy

Roomy interior and a big boot	Interior starting to look dated

Quick Summary

The Kia e-Niro (2019-2021) is a front-wheel drive family hatchback with SUV styling that delivers impressive real-world range and efficiency. Available with either a 64kWh battery offering up to 250 miles or a 39kWh battery providing around 150 miles, the e-Niro achieves approximately four miles per kilowatt-hour, outperforming comparable rivals like the Nissan Leaf. The 64kWh model accelerates from 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds with 204bhp, whilst the 39kWh version manages 9.5 seconds with 136bhp. Both are refined, comfortable, and a genuine pleasure to drive, with excellent steering response and smooth regenerative braking controlled via steering wheel paddles.

Practicality is a genuine strength, with a spacious 451-litre boot, variable-height boot floor, and clever storage solutions throughout. The cabin is logically laid out with either an eight-inch or 10.25-inch touchscreen featuring satnav, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. A 2020 facelift introduced a redesigned dashboard and tiered trim levels (2, 3, and 4+), with the 4+ offering premium features including ventilated seats, ambient lighting, and an optional heat pump for improved winter efficiency. Charging takes less than 10 hours at home via wallbox, or around 40 minutes to 80% using rapid DC charging. As a used purchase, the e-Niro represents outstanding value, with depreciation making it one of the most affordable long-range electric family cars available.

Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking a practical, long-range electric family car, those prioritising comfort and refinement, and drivers wanting excellent value in the used EV market.

Not ideal for: Buyers seeking cutting-edge styling or a contemporary interior design, or those requiring the absolute latest infotainment technology.

The Verdict

You should buy the e-Niro if: You're seeking an affordable, practical, long-range electric family car with excellent driving dynamics and strong reliability credentials.

Competitive Position: The Kia e-Niro (2019-2021) is a standout choice in the used electric family car market, offering exceptional value, impressive range, and genuine driving pleasure. Whilst the Skoda Enyaq matches it on expert and user ratings, the e-Niro's superior efficiency and lower running costs make it more economical to own.
