Overview
- Kia released first images and initial information in South Korea, showing a redesigned front and rear, slimmer vertical lighting, a body‑color C‑pillar, and an interior that adopts twin 12.3‑inch displays with a new steering wheel and retained physical controls.
- The Niro EV is reported with a 150 kW front motor, a 64.8 kWh battery, and up to 460 km WLTP range.
- In Germany the online configurator currently lists only the hybrid; the plug‑in hybrid and EV are absent, and German media note Kia has not confirmed local availability for the facelift.
- Outlets publish differing PHEV figures for system power and electric range, underscoring that several technical details remain inconsistent until Kia’s March disclosure.
- The Niro Hybrid currently starts at €33,990 in Germany, and reporters expect a moderate price increase for the facelift with estimates around €34,500.
