e-Niro 64 kWh

The Kia e-Niro 64 kWh is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, sold new from 2018 to 2020, when it cost £32,995 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 7.8 seconds, slower than 69% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 233 miles (375 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 39% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 158th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.6 mi/kWh (171 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 64 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 61 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 217 miles (349 km) at motorway speeds.

No heat pump is listed for this version, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand, a 2018 example is estimated at £5,600–£8,200 and a 2020 one at £7,700–£10,100, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2018 car should still manage about 198 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
