2020 Niro EV Specs

On the 19's looks like they are offering 75 month zero interest financing and no payments for 120 days.

Yes, that's some nice

Cargurus lists 49 of them in the US scattered in many states (CA, WA, OR, MA, NY, GA, TX, HI(!) ) and 685 2019s.

Starting to wish I had waited some more time...maybe pick up a Pandemic Bargain.

Nice end of model year price drop, especially at that Everett WA Kia dealer - who astonishingly has over 50 of them! They must be itching to sell them, since on their front page they have a big button labelled "EXPRESS PURCHASE NIRO EV". Living on the East Coast, that doesn't help me much, but a drop in price of close to $7000 seems like a good deal, especially if you can take advantage of the Federal tax credit.

You can ship a car across the USA for ~$500. I've done it when moving coast to coast. Contact the dealer and see what they say. As long as KIA will service the car in your state (or nearby) it might be a viable option.

I found a youtube video on installing LEDs in a Kia Niro. It looked pretty easy. Let's see if I can find that...


Heck there is even a thread for it right here in the forums!

It appears they changed the taillights from 2019 to 2020, at least for the Premium model. I included photos of 2019 and 2020. Both are supposed to be LED lights ...

The headlights are not LED on my premium trim Niro. I think the others are supposed to be.

I'm under the impression installing LED bulbs in the standard Niro EV projectors is not going to come close to providing the headlight performance of the factory Niro LED's:

Guess if you were really determined to get the factory LED's you could replace the projector assemblies with the LED assemblies. But they cost about $800 each! Part numbers are 92012-Q4240 for the right headlight and 92101-Q4240 for the left. And I'm also not sure if the wiring harness/connectors or anything else may be different.

Heck I mostly would want them because they last longer. Unless they are significantly dimmer than the current bulbs I would totally change them out once these die.
