Electric cars have dominated the automotive industry. After Tesla changed the automotive world, automakers have been hustling to release hybrid and EV cars, while many of them are completely letting go of internal combustion engines. Kia has been staying up to date with the industry, offering many hybrid and EV options. The Kia Niro is one of their hot cars at the moment, which comes in a Hybrid, Plug-In Hybrid, and EV variations. We wanted to see if the 2023 Kia Niro EV Wave is as good as their EV6 we recently reviewed, or is it just another electric car trying to make it. With a high starting MSRP of nearly $40,000, and almost $45,000 for the Wave trim, this crossover SUV had to deliver with flying colors. We recently tested both the Chevrolet Bolt EV and the Bolt EUV, which come with a much cheaper price tag. So the Niro EV simply has to blow our minds to justify the additional dollars.
