I just had an unexpected chance to drive the new - to the UK - Kia e-Niro 64kWh electric car at the Milton Keynes Electric Vehicle Experience Centre here in England.
Is this finally the perfect, 100% quirk free (almost!) EV? How does it shape up (pun intended!) to my second-hand Hyundai IONIQ Electric Premium SE?
Here I look at the exterior and interior of the car, boot/trunk space, charging socket location, battery pack protrusion under the car, luggage room and general space, and some driving features - like the weird dial gear selector.
I try out the impressive acceleration during the drive too. Nearby I show some of the new CCS charging infrastructure appearing in the UK - like four new high power 350kW IONITY CCS-only chargers, and the MK charging hub with eight 50kW triple header units (that were down when I first arrived, but that's another story!). The e-Niro seems future proofed for this lot!!!
My thanks again to the team at the Experience Centre. They are hoping to offer the e-Niro for extended (paid but very affordable) longer test drives soon. Look out for info at:
