New Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid for Sale near Princeton, NJ
The Kia Niro is a stylish and versatile compact crossover, offering comfortable accommodations, flexible cargo capacity, and desirable amenities in an affordable, conveniently sized package. It's also available in multiple electrified powertrain configurations, including a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) model with electric-only capability. The Niro PHEV is a great way to experience EV driving without relying solely on battery power - and Princeton-area drivers can find it here at Ciocca Kia in Flemington.
Performance, Range, and Charging
The Kia Niro PHEV pairs a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with a 62-kW electric motor, sending a combined 180 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. An 11.1-kWh battery helps the Niro achieve an EPA-rated 108 MPGe (miles-per-gallon equivalent) and travel an estimated 33 miles on just electricity.
Charging takes a little under three hours with Level 2 (240-volt) equipment. However, you don't necessarily need to install special equipment. Plugged into a 120-volt household-style power outlet, the Niro PHEV can replenish its battery overnight (7 - 8 hours).
Interior and Utility
The Kia Niro PHEV is cozy, accommodating, and versatile while remaining maneuverable enough to negotiate the tight side streets around Princeton. The cabin exhibits a clean, modern design, nicely cushioned and supportive seats, and ample space for passengers in both rows. Rear-seat occupants will especially appreciate the class-leading 39.8 inches of legroom. The Niro PHEV reserves 19.4 cubic feet behind the second row for your groceries and gear. When your Princeton errands and adventures require more cargo capacity, you can fold the rear seats to access 54.6 cubic feet.
The Niro PHEV is abundantly equipped with many desirable amenities. Even the base trim includes features like dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, heated mirrors, leatherette upholstery, and a power driver's seat. Available comforts and conveniences include:
- Power liftgate
- Power-folding side mirrors

- Driver memory

Infotainment and Driver-Assistance Technology
The Kia Niro PHEV's high-tech nature is exemplified in its advanced yet intuitive displays. The 10.25-inch Kia Connect touchscreen includes Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, providing convenient access to smartphone features like hands-free calls, music, streaming media, Google or Apple Maps, your virtual assistant, and more. Next to the infotainment system, a customizable 10.25-inch digital instrument panel makes it easy to monitor important driving information while keeping your eyes on the road. Available tech upgrades include Digital Key (phone-as-a-key) and a seven-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system.
Staying alert while driving is always the most important aspect of vehicle safety. Still, it never hurts to have some assistance.
