Phonetically it sounds the same, almost equal to de Niro and e-Niro. But that’s it. Although Robert de Niro, the two-time Oscar winner knows, the quiet sounds in the Film. However, on the body of the other roles were written for him: loud, sometimes rough. As in the Boxer-Drama “raging bull” of master Director Martin Scorsese, for which de Niro is not only a year into Boxing training, and competition increased moderately in the Ring. The e-Niro, however, is on four wheels, as a pure Stromer always silent. Nevertheless, the quiet and the loud Niro together now.
485 kilometers from outlet
Since the beginning of December, the now 75-year-old American actor is a brand Ambassador for the Kia Stromer. And if Robert de Niro in TV commercials proclaimed, the e-Niro come with its reach and its relatively low price just right, to clear remaining hurdles in the purchase of an electric vehicle out of the way, then he brings the issue to the point. Kia seeks it with an e-to solve Niro: a zero-emissions at a range of up to 485 km and a price that is likely to be in Switzerland between 35000 and 40000 francs. All of this in the Form of a trendy, compact SUV.
The e-Niro will provide Kia with us for at least a third cheaper than Tesla will be Model 3, if the two Stromer 2019 come to the European market. Originally, Elon Musk has announced to be the volume model at a price of 35000 dollars, but now, the compact luxury to cost-Stromer from California with a range of 544 miles 59400 francs. And the Performance Version will be available with 71300 even more expensive.
For the e-Niro, the Swiss prices are not fixed yet, but the specifications of the Koreans for the German market to allow conclusions to be drawn. In the basic version with 100 kW (136 HP) and a range of 289 kilometers, the starting price is 34300 Euro, with the stronger drive (150 kW, 204 HP) and a range of 485 kilometers of the e list-Niro with 38090 euros to the German price. The target of Kia, Switzerland is also the stronger of the two versions is to keep the market launch in June, close to 40000 Swiss francs.
pace costs range
in addition to the price Argument number 1 when buying an electric car and the range of Argument number 2 – play the Koreans a third trump: The e-Niro, together with the Hyundai Kona that comes from the same group, the world’s first Compact SUV, the powered. With the exception of the closed grille, behind which the charging socket is plugged in, he says, formally, none of the existing electric cars in the Small or compact car Segment. On the contrary, The e-Niro gives an almost dynamically, and has a good quality also on the inside.
And so it rides: Impressive, the approach is loose between the acceleration that makes Overtaking a breeze. Even if it goes uphill. And with the low center of gravity, for the 450-kilogram battery in the car provides the ground, are quickly driven curves for the front-wheel-driven e-Niro is not a Problem. As the maximum speed of Kia is 167 km/h. You drive on the highway at a constant 120 km/h, then the range decreases, however, even when the e-Niro rapidly. So, as with any other electric car to date.
despite all the recuperation ability of the Reloading are necessary, according to the Kia with a different number of load operations are possible. At a fast charging station is 42 minutes, which should be enough to bring the battery from 20 to 80 percent. On a conventional outlet, however, the same procedure can last up to 18 hours. On the battery, which is included in the purchase price, give the Koreans a seven-year warranty.
