Kia Niro PHEV  Charging Cable FAQs

Which Charging Cable should you buy for the Kia Niro PHEV?

The most suitable charging cable for the Kia Niro is a Type 2 to Type 2 cable which will attach to all UK commercial charging stations, home charging stations and, smart charging stations. To charge the car at its maximum rate you would require at least a 32amp, 1 Phase, charging cable. This will allow you to charge your car in 8 hours and 30 minutes.

What is the difference between the Kia Niro EV Cables?

The biggest difference is between:

• Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable: One end of this Kia Niro charging cable plugs into your ev charging station and the other plugs into the electric car.
• Type 2 to 3 Pin charging cable: The difference with this portable Kia Niro charging cable is that one end plugs into a standard UK socket and the other plugs into your car. This means that as long as you have access to a UK plug socket, you will be able to charge your Kia Niro.

Does the Kia Niro PHEV work as an electric-only car?

Most assuredly. In fact, it excels in this regard. An 8.9 kWh lithium-polymer battery pack is paired with a powerful 44.5 kW electric motor These in turn are paired with Kia’s efficient 1.6L four-cylinder GDI engine, which independently produces 103bhp.

Yes. As with most others of this type charging is straightforward at home, work or in public locations. Up to an 80% charge should be achievable in around three hours. This car may charge faster when using a Type 2 1-phase 32A charging cable which can be purchased from  EV Cable Shop.

Kia state that just over 200 miles to the gallon should be possible, although this would have to be in perfect conditions and the car drove appropriately.
