Of course, seeing the EPA-estimated MPG numbers laid out like this raises another obvious question: what is this thing’s powertrain like? Well, here’s a closer look at its hybrid powertrain’s impressive specifications:

• Hybrid Powertrain: 1.6L 4-cylinder engine and full parallel hybrid system
• 1.6L 4-Cylinder Engine: DOHC, 16-valve model with Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CCVT), capable of producing as much as 104 horsepower @5,700 RPM and 109 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 RPM
• Full Parallel Hybrid System: AC Synchronous Permanent Magnet Motor, capable of producing as much as 43 HP @ 1,800-2,500 RPM and 125 lb-ft of torque @ 0-1,800 RPM
• Lithium-Ion Polymer Battery: 240 V, 6.5aH, and 1.56 kWh
• Transmission: Dual Clutch 6-Speed Automatic with Sportmatic

So, now that you’ve got a better sense of all of these numbers, let’s take a quick glance at its technology.

Fuel-Efficiency-Promoting Technologies

In addition to its hybrid powertrain, how does the Kia Niro manage to put out such efficient specs?

Regenerative Braking System. Every time you press on the brakes, the Niro’s high-tech Regenerative Braking System will harness some of that kinetic energy in order to recharge its Li-Ion Polymer Battery.

Dual-Clutch 6-Speed Automatic Transmission. This is a step away from the types of transmissions that most hybrids use. The results? Smooth shifts, as well as an authentic-feeling driving experience.

If this is the type of money-saving, planet-saving vehicle that interests you, please contact us right now.
