Kia Nero EV EX - Anyone here have one yet?

I'm not fond of Kia. Up until recently I have heard nothing but a series of horror stories about this brand. I vowed long ago to never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever buy a Kia.

THAT SAID

I am in need of a vehicle and I may as well get an electric one because I pay .097 per kwh for electricity and I like the sound of traveling 230 miles for $8. All my research has lead me to...



While I would *NEVER* pay $40k for a Kia... they do have an offer where I can lease this vehicle for 36 months at $270 a month w/15k per year mile allowance. Between the monthly payments, fuel costs, and insurance we are essentially breaking even.

Most everyone I know that has purchased a Kia in the last 3-4 years has been really happy with them. It seems like Hyundai took renewed interest in their "off brand" label and decided to pump out some decent vehicles as of late.

Anyone here have one yet?

/why a lease? Because this is my first ev and this is the first ev Kia has made. Looking before leaping.

My dentist just bought one. I got a filling last week and she told me, because it was her first day driving it to work. She seemed pretty satisfied with the first day.

Would you be willing to book another appointment in the very near future and get a follow up for me?

KIA cars have gotten much better. Never owned one but have friends who have had Stingers, Sorento, K5 and Tellurides. All very nice cars.

Thankfully no reported issues of this nature on the full EVs.... yet.

That is crazy because I took my turn with his mom about a month ago and it was in a 1992 Mercury Sable Station Wagon. She must have hit the jackpot on a scratcher with the fiver I gave her.

I'm hoping that the trend continues. The car looks really nice inside and out... just a matter of whether or not it holds up. I'm fairly certain I won't be picking up the buy option at the end of the lease regardless of how much I like this car. Hoping the Ford F-150 Lightning will have a few years under it's belt at that point and I will move onto that.

Kia and Hyundai are great vehicles. More bang for your buck.

I’ve been really happy with a 2018 Kia Niro I bought last February. Been able to handle everything we’ve needed it to. We do still have a larger car with awd that has more space for cargo though

I’ve owned a 2022 Kia Telluride Nightfall Edition for about five months. So far, I couldn’t be happier. I realize that doesn’t help you with your decision about a Niro, but just my offering on Kia, in general.

Well feel free to ask anything because I worked the numbers around some more and found this to be ridiculously interesting. Gonna go get it, hopefully tomorrow, but probably on Monday.

If I put down $5k my payment would be $270. If I put down $7k my payment goes down to $210. I then do the math.

My payment goes down by $60 per month and 60*36 = 2,160. By putting down an extra $2k up front, I get it all back by the end of the lease plus another $160... AND I pay less per month.

This is ridiculous. Same if I go even harder on the down payment.... I get ALL the money back (over the life of the lease) plus a bit more AND a lower monthly payment.
