The Kia Niro hybrid SUV sold in the US and Europe is set to get an all-electric variant next year, according to a new report.
An article by Dutch publication AutoRai, translated by Carscoops quotes the company's European CEO, Michael Cole, saying the Niro EV will use the running gear of the all-electric version of the Hyundai Ioniq.
The Ioniq Electric is powered by an 88kW/295Nm electric motor driving the front wheels via a single-speed transmission.
