Your go-to green machine for Iceland’s top spots.
The Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid — or a similar model — is the sweet spot between city-smart hatchback and adventure-ready crossover. This automatic 2WD PHEV gives you electric efficiency for short drives and petrol power for the long haul. It’s a thrifty, planet-friendly pick for Iceland’s Ring Road, the Golden Circle, or a South Coast getaway.
Why rent the Kia Niro PHEV in Iceland?
- Fuel-saving plug-in power: Charge it up and get up to 33 miles (53 km) of electric-only range — perfect for Reykjavík drives or cruising to the Blue Lagoon. When the battery runs out, the petrol engine takes over without missing a beat.
- Eco-friendly + fun to drive: This hybrid uses regenerative braking to recharge while you drive. That means fewer emissions, better mileage, and smoother acceleration.
- Space to relax: A solid pick for couples or small groups, the Niro fits 4 passengers comfortably and has room in the back for 2–3 suitcases.
- High-tech perks: Apple CarPlay™, built-in navigation, lane-keeping assist, and parking sensors help make every mile easy and safe.
- Budget win: One of the most affordable hybrid crossovers in our 2WD fleet — great for drivers who want comfort and savings in one sleek package.

You’ll feel confident in wet or windy conditions thanks to smart handling and excellent traction. It’s a great pick year-round — just skip the F-roads and you’re set for a smooth, low-emission road trip.
