The Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid has won at the third annual DrivingElectric Awards, winning ‘Best Used Plug-in Hybrid’ and continuing Kia’s streak of securing a win at every DrivingElectric Awards ceremony to date.
At the inaugural DrivingElectric Awards, the e-Niro was recognised as 2019 ‘Car of the Year’, and the Soul EV went on to win ‘Best Medium Electric Car’ the next year.
The DrivingElectric Awards have been running since 2019 and celebrate the most efficient cars money can buy. Each category winner was decided by DrivingElectric’s judging panel who considered factors such as overall value for money, performance and practicality.
Richard Ingram, Editor of DrivingElectric, said: “The Kia Niro makes fantastic sense as a second-hand buy. In addition to its seven-year warranty, its petrol-electric drivetrain promises ongoing fuel savings thanks to a usable zero-emission range. Furthermore, the Niro (whether in hybrid, plug-in hybrid or pure-electric e-Niro form) is a spacious, comfortable and practical family car, with plenty of room for up to five occupants and their luggage.”
