00:03 On the journey toward more sustainable driving,
00:10 only one brand brings you three electrified choices
00:13 in one affordable family of vehicles, Kia,
00:17 introducing the all-new Kia Niro crossovers, the EV, the HEV,
00:23 and the PHEV.
00:25 Whichever version you choose, Niro
00:27 is larger and roomier than ever.
00:29 With cutting-edge technologies and an entirely new design
00:33 inside and out.
00:35 With its 64.8 kilowatt hour battery and 150 kilowatt motor,
00:40 Niro EV delivers up to 253 miles of all electric range.
00:46 And it charges from 10% to 80% in under 45 minutes,
00:50 thanks to standard DC fast charging capability.
00:53 An optional heat pump and battery warmer
00:56 help the Niro EV make the most of its battery capacity,
00:59 even on the coldest days.
01:01 Niro EV's battery can also be used as an onboard generator
01:05 to power everything from an air compressor to a coffee maker.
01:09 In the Niro Hybrid, a 1.6 liter four cylinder engine
01:13 joins forces with a 32 kilowatt electric motor
01:17 to deliver 139 horsepower and a driving range of up to 588
01:22 miles.
01:23 Not to mention, best in class fuel efficiency
01:26 of 53 miles per gallon.
01:28 In fact, no competing hybrid SUV comes close.
01:32 Corolla Cross Hybrid promises only 37 miles per gallon
01:36 combined.
01:37 And the RAV4 HEV delivers just 40.
01:40 Plus, Niro Hybrid models offer a quiet green zone drive
01:44 mode that uses navigation data to drive
01:47 on pure electric power based on location,
01:50 such as in residential areas or near schools and hospitals.
01:54 The Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid pairs a 1.6 liter engine
01:59 with a 62 kilowatt electric motor,
02:01 delivering 180 horsepower and 33 miles of all electric range.
02:06 That's a 25% improvement over the previous model.
02:09 Being a leader in electrified choices
02:18 isn't the only thing that makes Kia Niro stand out.
02:22 With its unique size and combination of features,
02:25 Niro is literally in a league of its own.
02:28 It's bigger in every possible dimension.
02:31 2.5 inches longer, nearly an inch wider,
02:34 and almost half an inch taller.
02:36 All adding up to best in class head and shoulder room
02:40 and class leading cargo volume.
02:43 Niro's interior spaciousness even
02:45 rivals vehicles a class up, with more leg room than RAV4,
02:49 along with comparable headroom.
02:51 Up front, Niro brings a fresh interpretation
02:54 to Kia's signature tiger nose grille.
02:57 It extends from the fender to the high tech projector
03:00 headlights and standard heartbeat daytime running
03:03 lights.
03:04 The taller roof line gives Niro a distinct CUV stance
03:08 and features roof rails that emphasize its capable image.
03:13 Available in a striking two-tone color palette,
03:16 the air blades define Niro's C pillar.
03:19 Air flows through the blades, which
03:21 thrust the wind past the standard LED boomerang tail
03:24 lights and out past the rear of the vehicle,
03:27 aiding aerodynamics and fuel efficiency in the process.
03:31 The bold design theme continues with a rugged skid plate
03:34 garnish on the lower bumper.
03:36 And for the first time on Niro, a smart power lift gate
03:39 is available, which can be set to open automatically
03:42 as you approach.
03:44 The hybrid and plug-in hybrid models
03:46 complete Niro's more aggressive look
03:48 with sporty, optional 18-inch wheels.
03:51 On the inside, Niro is inspired by Kia's design philosophy
04:02 of opposites united.
04:04 Horizontal and diagonal forms create a sense of movement
04:07 throughout the cabin.
04:09 The most eye-catching feature is Niro's expanse
04:11 of more than 20 inches of uninterrupted display surface.
04:15 The center console features a large storage compartment
04:19 that can quickly transform into a pair of cupholders.
04:22 The seats are slim and comfortable,
04:24 made from sturdy, lightweight gigasteel.
04:27 They're also heated and ventilated.
04:30 And throughout the EV's interior,
04:32 the materials used in manufacturing are 100% vegan.
04:36 The headliner is made of recycled wallpaper.
04:39 The door panels are covered in BTX-free paint.
04:43 And environmentally-friendly eucalyptus leaves
04:45 are integrated into the production
04:47 of other interior components.
04:49 Electrified vehicle customers enjoy a high-tech lifestyle.
04:59 Niro exceeds their expectations
05:02 with a thoughtful package of technologies
05:04 that provide comfort, functionality, and convenience,
05:08 such as standard dual climate control,
05:11 and an available Harman Kardon audio system
05:13 that's right at the driver's fingertips.
05:16 Or owners can go touch-free,
05:18 thanks to standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
05:22 In the EV and PHEV,
05:24 there's a simple, intuitive dial shifter.
05:27 And in the EV model, an available head-up display
05:30 that projects essential information
05:32 directly into the driver's line of sight.
05:35 To keep Niro's tech-savvy customer powered up
05:38 at all times, there's an optional wireless charging pad
05:41 up front and standard USB ports
05:44 in each front-row seat back.
05:46 Owners can even use an Apple Watch or a smartphone
05:49 to unlock and start the vehicle with Kia Digital Key Touch.
05:53 And by sending a simple text message,
05:55 others can be granted access remotely as well.
05:58 In terms of safety features,
06:00 our DriveWise Intelligent Advanced Driver Assistance System
06:04 comes standard.
06:05 It helps the driver avoid forward collisions,
06:08 blind spot accidents, rear cross traffic,
06:10 and pedestrians front and back.
06:13 Plus, Niro features Highway Drive Assist 2 on the EV model,
06:17 offering stop-and-go guidance
06:19 and automatic lane change assistance.
06:21 It also includes Smart Cruise Control
06:24 that uses machine learning to learn your driving style.
06:27 When it's activated, it replicates your driving habits,
06:30 so the vehicle's distance, acceleration,
06:32 and reaction speed feel natural to you.
06:35 With cutting-edge style for all your urban adventures,
06:39 a sustainable purpose that drives toward a greener future,
06:43 and three electrified options
06:45 to suit your specific driving needs,
06:47 the all-new Kia Niro combines practicality and fun
06:51 for a new generation of eco-conscious drivers.
06:55 Kia, movement that inspires.
