Our Verdict
Recommended. This is a modern, Euro 6 AP
When purchasing this Niro, prioritize verifying the full service history to ensure the manufacturer's warranty remains intact. Check the hybrid system's operation during a test drive, ensuring smooth transitions between electric and petrol power. Negotiate based on the remaining warranty period and any upcoming service requirements.
As a hybrid electric vehicle, this Niro offers competitive fuel economy and lower VED costs compared to pure petrol equivalents. Insurance groups for this model are typically moderate, and maintenance costs are generally predictable for a vehicle of this age. Annual costs will primarily consist of insurance, road tax, and scheduled servicing.
Carefully inspect the alloy wheels for any damage or curbing, as aggregate data for the Niro indicates that 'road wheel badly' is a top MOT failure reason. You should also specifically check the rear adult seatbelts, as the October 2025 MOT record noted that a child seat prevented a full inspection of the belt at that time. Finally, check the tyre tread and condition to ensure they are consistent with the recorded mileage.
This 2022 Grey Kia Niro 3 HEV S-A has recorded 29,388 miles as of its October 2025 MOT. The vehicle benefits from being below the model's average annual mileage of 13,751 and belongs to a model group with a high aggregate MOT pass rate of 93.6%. Its hybrid powertrain and Euro 6 status make it a practical choice for urban and long-distance driving.
The Kia Niro has a strong reliability reputation, evidenced by a 93.6% MOT pass rate across 10,133 analysed vehicles.
