Comparison Review

Comfort
The Chevrolet Bolt EUV offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Kia Niro, with comparable head- and legroom. The Chevrolet Bolt EUV will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Kia Niro.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Whether you pick the Chevrolet Bolt EUV or the Kia Niro, it's going to cost you about the same.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Bolt EUV is much slimmer than the Kia Niro, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Bolt EUV takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Kia Niro.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Chevrolet Bolt EUV greatly out-muscles the Kia Niro.

Powertrain
The Chevrolet Bolt EUV has much lower torque than the Kia Niro, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Bolt EUV and the Kia Niro.
