The 2027 Niro continues to use a hybrid powertrain combining a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor and a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. The system produces a combined 139 hp and remains paired with front-wheel drive across the lineup. Kia America has also made updates to suspension tuning, ride comfort and cabin quietness for the refreshed model year.
