Things to consider when insuring one
Driver-assist sensors come standard
They can help avoid crashes, but a windshield or bumper repair often needs the cameras and radar recalibrated, which costs more. Check what your comprehensive and collision deductibles would mean for a glass claim.
Recalls
NHTSA has no recalls on record for the 2026 Kia Niro. A specific car can still have work outstanding from its seller, so check its VIN before you buy.
