Combined fuel economy is 48 miles per gallon.
Upgrading to the SX Touring trim gets buyers some additional amenities. It has 18-inch wheels rather than the 16-inch parts on the EX. The exterior features power-folding heated side mirrors with integrated turn signals. Gloss black trim is on the lower door cladding, wheel arch moldings, lower bumper elements, and rear spoiler garnish. A power tailgate and sunroof are also among the additional equipment. The cabin has LED lighting. The front seats are ventilated, and there’s a Harman Kardon eight-speaker stereo.
The Niro PHEV comes standard with quite a bit of safety equipment. It has blind-spot collision warning, driver attention warning, high beam assist, lane following assist, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, reverse parking distance warning, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, and safe exit assist.
