2022 Kia Niro PHEV, EV For Sale in Little Rock, Arkansas
Crossover to either the 2022 Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid or EV this year. Landers Kia wants to share the details of the new Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid and Kia Niro EV. Learn what we know about the two electric vehicles.
2022 Niro Plug-In Hybrid
If you’re not ready to make the switch to a fully electric vehicle, we suggest checking out our plug-in hybrids first. They may ease the transition. The Niro Plug-in Hybrid’s MSRP is $29,590, but with the Federal Tax Credit, can drop to $25,047. The hybrid is detail-oriented, noticeably under the hood and interior cabin details.
Let’s look under the hood first. A 1.6-liter engine paired with an electric motor and lithium-ion polymer battery makes the Full Parallel Hybrid System. This plus a six-speed transmission lends smooth shifting between gears. Add Sport Mode on top of the responsive gear shift and you also get better steering and increased throttle response.
Focusing on the interior next, it is important to note that the front portion of the cab is driver-centric. The seven-inch display behind the wheel gives the driver all of the information they would need at a glance. The eight-inch, or 10.25-inch option, touchscreen display not only connects to almost any device the passenger wants to listen to, but there is also a Voice-Command Navigation System available. This makes sure the driver has access to what they may need without distractions. The front seats are heated and ventilated, and on cold mornings, the driver may appreciate the heated steering wheel option as well.

2022 Niro EV
The 2022 Niro EV is the full electric experience. The MSRP for the Niro EV is $39,990, but after the Federal Tax Credit decrease, it can get down to $32,490. There are two trims available for the Niro EV: EX and EX Premium.

With 201 horsepower and 291 lb.-ft. of torque, the lithium-ion polymer 64 kWh battery can be found under the vehicle’s floor. The EV is also equipped with regenerative self-charging, meaning when the brakes are tapped, the decrease in speed can be used to recharge the battery.
The touchscreen in the EV is standard at 10.25-inches and still connects to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with navigation options available. The EX Premium trim has the option of adjustable mood lighting to match your music vibes. Moving into the driver’s seat, the front seats have heated options, and the driver can splurge for a heated steering wheel.

Kia elects to prioritize safety and range when it comes to the new Kia Niro electric options. Both vehicles are well equipped to help you find the perfect electric vehicle for you.
