KIA Niro SUV White

The Niro slots in between the XCeed and Sportage, while the electric version bridges the gap from Soul to EV6. The full hybrid (or HEV to use the jargon) is probably best for private buyers wanting minimum fuss but decent efficiency, given you don’t need off-street parking and a home charging point. Think diesel efficiency but with cleaner, more refined petrol-electric power and you’re about there, this model also the most affordable of the three. If you can charge at home but need flexibility to travel further when required the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is both fuel and tax efficient while the fully electric version (BEV) offsets its higher purchase price with the potential for real day-to-day savings if you’re smart about how and when you charge it. If you’re lucky enough to work somewhere offering a car salary sacrifice to incentivise electric car take-up you could make further savings here, too.
