![I am joining the club! '23 Niro EV Wind! [USA]](https://preview.redd.it/sngzn2g9pouh1.jpeg?auto=webp&s=1a142f4d007cfdddd61d511843ee69743be0c8a1)
I have owned the car for about a month and I am in love with it. This is my first EV! I traded in my 170,000 mile CRV for this. I also love this color and the pictures do not do it justice. It's a green but looks grey, blue or green depending on the lighting.
Thank you guys for being a support group for this wonderful car.
I'm moving to a house, but unfortunately the main line is only 16A.
Is it possible to charge L1 with this, as in max 7kW? I don't mind it taking time, as long as it's done over the weekend (or nightly top ups).
Electricity is mighty expensive here and if I'm installing a bigger fuse I also move up a tariff level...
My wife and I have decided to lease a Wind+ trim, but don't agree on the color. We have Runway Red and Snow White Pearl to choose from. This whole time I assumed we were going with the white, but this morning she surprised me by choosing red. To be fair, our top colors are blue, green, silver in that order, but we couldn't find the same deal on those.
Anyone care to weigh in?
Attached a video of it.
Is this normal? I don't know any other owners of kia eniros to compare to. Seems much noisier than we bought it. It's most noisy when accelerating at lower speeds eg 20mph
I'm worried it's an issue potentially with the gear reduction unit (aka it's the beginning of the wheel of fortune noise)
My dealership can't see the car for a month and not sure the car is safe to drive
I have seen a lot of horror stories on Reddit about Kias in general, including terrible dealer services. I have had my 2023 (29k mi) for one week, and I def need reassurance that I made a good move! Thx!
Hi,
Got a Niro EV 2023 with 45000 km on the odo meter. Recently an annoying sound sometimes apperars when going over speed bumps. Any ideas what it might be? Got time at my Kia dealer to check it out in about a week.
Could it be the sway bar end-links?
In interested in this Kia Niro 2020:
- 250 000 Km
- 9950 $
- carfax included
- max range indicated at 441
Despite max range estimated being high, I still have yet to evaluation the SOH (since we all know the max range doesn’t mean jack****) . But I was thinking of getting your advices , and whether your Niros of that year are holding up well in
these mileage ranges. Thanks !
** also, I feel like a good chunk of that mileage was highway after seeing the pace at which the mileage accumulated on the carfax
Just drove my 2023 Wind for the first time in the rain. The backup camera was impossible to see out of most of the time. The intermittent wipers wouldnt do anything. also how do you defog the mirrors (or can you?)
Anyone who uses hand controls to drive with a Kia EV? I love my Kia Niro EV so much but I need hand controls to drive now and do not want to give her up.
I know it’s niche but I am determined to make it work. (Picture is what I have in my other car)
Been looking at getting into the EV market because we will be sending a kid off to college with my car in a couple of years. I need a basic commuter that only requires about 20 miles/day total and maybe an occasional road trip (once a year?) that would require 500-600 miles each way. A local dealer is closing out their 26 Niro ev at about $20k. I’ve read it’s being discontinued but at that price for a new car, it is very tempting. Any thoughts appreciated!
UPDATE: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Price listing of $20k was listed in car guru’s. When I reached out to the dealer, they stated CG had incorrectly doubled up a $10 rebate and price was $30k. Sounds like that is still a good deal but my timeline for a purchase is not immediate so going to pass. Appreciate all the input!
Hey guys, hoping somebody here can help! We have a 2021 e-niro 64kw version. Today, I've parked up twice, switched to utility mode, and within a minute or so, this red battery warning light shows up. As far as I'm aware, in utility mode the car shouldn't use the 12v and thus this battery light shouldn't show?
To make matters weirder, if I then turn the car off and back on (it goes straight into utility mode), the red battery light disappears...
Any idea what's happening and if we need to go to Kia? Would really appreciate some expertise here.
Thank you
Picking up my Blue Niro 3 trim (facelift version) next week, what accessories do you recommend?
Have dashcam and wireless AA already.
Thanks!
Just got my Kia E-niro 2021. Trying to figure out how to have auto lights i.e. dipped headlights and when I want just flick to full beam. If I push lever away like normal it goes to auto full beam switching on and off when it thinks they're needed. I don't want this.
Any help on this feature please?
How good is the range accuracy of a E-Niro 2021?
The Tuxmats and WeatherTech are really expensive. Anyone tried these or other "cheap and cheerful" brands?
I was hearing a slight clicking noise at about 5 to 7 miles an hour in my 2019 Niro EV. Took it into the dealer today and it was diagnosed as the reduction gear. Fortunately still under warranty and I’ll get my car back in about a week. I was afraid they were going to say they didn’t hear anything since it was sporadic, but indeed they diagnosed it properly and are going to fix it without any hassle.
