Niro Guinness World Record
Think your last road trip was long? The 2017 Kia Niro just traveled 3,715.4 miles from Los Angeles City Hall to New York City Hall – and that’s not even the impressive part! The all-new Urban Crossover Hybrid Vehicle set a Guinness World Record® for lowest fuel consumption driving across the country from coast to coast. Wayne Gerdes and co-driver, Robert Winger only used 48.5 gallons and stopped for gas a total of 4 times! The world record is now 76.6 MPG.
“We’re extremely pleased with the Niro’s record-breaking performance,” said Orth Hedrick, vice president, product planning KMA. “We set out to build a vehicle that offers real-world utility, great looks and fantastic mileage, and setting the Guinness World Record® title confirms our achievement.”
The 2017 Kia Niro is due to arrive in early 2017! Stay tuned to the DELLA Kia blog for more updates on its arrival.
