Commenting on the Niro, Robertson added: “Keen pricing, excellent reliability and a seven-year warranty has helped many buyers seeking their first alternative fuel model make the switch. The interior is surprisingly roomy, and in everyday driving even the hybrid can return around 60mpg, making it a kind car on the wallet.”
Paul Philpott, President and CEO of Kia UK Limited commented: “It’s fantastic to see our products recognised in the Electrified Top 50 list – a clear indication of Kia’s status as a leader in electrification. The Kia model range encompasses one of the widest in the industry, ensuring there’s a powertrain to suit every need. We’re delighted to see Diesel&EcoCar Magazine recognise the Sportage, Niro and EV6 for their merits. All of our models are available from our 191 dealer partners around the UK, who are happy to explain electrified technologies to customers and ensure they buy the best vehicle for their needs.”
Kia is no stranger to the annual Diesel&EcoCar Magazine Top 50 list, last year winning the ‘Best Large SUV’ for the Sorento seven-seat SUV.
