Mileage was one of the most important things, and this has 49 or 50 combined! Unheard of for an SUV. It was so quiet. Shut the door and everything is shut out. Also comfortable. I was in a bad car accident, so a comfortable seat is important. Good visibility, and storage. I think its great!

I wanted a car that had much better gas mileage than my 2020 Nissan Kicks. My wife has a 2016 Kia Niro, so this was an easy choice to make. Im incredibly happy and satisfied with my 2018 Kia Niro, and I would recommend this vehicle!
