When you see a 2025 Kia Niro EV on the road in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Birmingham, Montgomery, or Huntsville, its stunning new exterior styling will catch your attention long before you consider how it’s powered. Of course, the smooth and almost silent way it glides past will give the game away about its fully electric powertrain. But there’s plenty to admire about the all-new Kia Niro EV beyond its electric motor and lack of emissions.
Two versions of the 2025 Kia Niro EV are available. However, to assume that means different battery sizes, ranges, and considerably different MSRPs would be wrong. The all-new second-generation 2025 Kia Niro EV is available in Wind and Wave trim levels that reflect the Kia Niro EV’s concept of sustainability. Both models feature the same electric powertrain, so deciding between the two models comes down to which specification is right for you.
Both trim levels also share the Kia Niro EV’s stunning new styling that adds a touch of class and a more premium feel to a model that’s never been offered in a gas-only format. A standout styling cue of the all-new Kia Niro EV is the striking boomerang body panel that comes in silver or black, which Kia calls an air blade, extending from the roof to the rear wheels. The all-new Kia Niro EV is a stunning design that immediately catches the eye and fits in nicely with other recently restyled Kia models while maintaining an element of uniqueness.
For the 2025 Kia Niro EV, Kia maintains its emphasis on delivering everyday usability and responsive dynamics through an electric-only powertrain. Mounted up front, a single electric motor draws energy from a robust lithium-ion battery, producing 201 horsepower and a swift flow of torque right off the line. This setup continues to send power solely to the front wheels. Still, revised chassis tuning, weight distribution, and suspension enhancements help the Kia Niro EV corner with composure and feel steady on the open road.
When it’s time to plug in, the Kia Niro EV’s quick-charging capabilities make replenishing the battery a short stopover. Anticipate approximately 10% to 80% recharge in under an hour via DC fast charging and clever thermal management to preserve battery health and performance. Once fully charged, the Kia Niro EV provides a real-world cruising range of 250 miles, ensuring worry-free trips to work, the supermarket, or even a weekend getaway. On pavement, the Kia Niro EV’s linear acceleration, refined ride quality, and quiet operation deliver an appealing blend of comfort and confidence that cater to newcomers and longtime EV drivers alike.
Some may argue whether the 2025 Kia Niro EV is a crossover SUV or should be considered a tall hatch instead. However, the interior is generously spacious, and there’s no disputing the impressive 39.8 inches of legroom in the rear seats that’s more than you’ll find in the second rows of many much larger three-row SUVs. The cargo volume behind the 60/40 split rear seats has also grown with the arrival of the second generation, so you now get 22.8 cu.-ft. instead of the previous model’s 19.4 cu.-ft.
Both trim levels get standard dual-zone climate control, a power tailgate, roof rails, heated front seats, 17-inch alloy wheels, and a 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If you upgrade to the Wave trim level, you’ll enjoy the additional benefits of a premium Harman Kardon audio system, a Digital Key feature, perforated SynTex upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and more.
The 2025 Kia Niro EV is a stylish compact crossover SUV that would attract attention regardless of what it does (or doesn’t) have under its hood.
