Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus your attention on the service history to ensure the hybrid system and general maintenance have been kept up to date, as the low mileage suggests light use. Check that all manufacturer warranties are still active, given the August 2022 registration date.
Negotiate based on the current condition of the tyres and consumables. While the MOT history is relatively clean, the wider model data indicates that tyres are a frequent point of failure for this vehicle type.
As a 1.6L hybrid (Euro 6 AP), this Niro is designed for efficiency, typically offering low fuel consumption and favorable tax bands. Insurance costs will depend on the driver's profile, but the S-A trim generally sits in a moderate insurance group.
Typical maintenance costs for this hybrid powertrain are generally predictable, though owners should budget for the specific requirements of hybrid battery health checks as the vehicle ages.
Inspect the lighting system, specifically the headlamp alignment, to ensure the previous failure for the offside front lamp has been permanently resolved. Perform a thorough check of the tyres for wear or age-related cracking, as tyres are one of the top failure reasons for this model across 12,090 analysed vehicles.
Additionally, check the windscreen wipers and test the parking brake efficiency, as these are also highlighted as common weak points in the aggregate model data.
This 2022 Grey KIA Niro HEV S-A presents as a low-mileage example, recording 13,173 miles at its September 2025 MOT. The vehicle's data shows a single MOT failure for headlamp aim, which was rectified on the same day. Compared to the model aggregate data, this specific car has been used significantly less than the average Niro.
The Niro has a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 88.7% based on data from 12,090 vehicles.
