3 Interesting Facts About The 2017 Kia Niro

Image
The 2017 Kia lineup is no stranger to unique and advanced features. Specifically, the 2017 Kia Niro offering many exciting features to start your Kia journey the right way. Kia's interesting shape and space make it a cross between a Crossover & SUV. Designers of the Niro wanted to be creative and took the more utilitarian approach and created what the automaker calls a "hybrid utility vehicle." Besides the intentional design, the Kia Niro is also related to the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte. However, because the Niro is a dedicated hybrid, the platform itself shares only 10 percent of its parts with the chassis sitting beneath those two compacts. Last but not least, you can get 50 MPG for around $25,000, making it big on value. The 2017 Kia Niro sparks Kia-lover interest and leave them wanting more.

That is why I was stoked to hear about Kia teaming up with the Oklahoma City Thunder.  They came together and dedicated an outdoor basketball court to the Boys and Girls club of Norman Center for Children and Families. As you can imagine this time of year, it can get a little chilly outside but with the warmth something like this does on the inside of you, no one really minded.  This was the 11th basketball court that the Thunder Cares Foundation has either built or renovated.  The kids got to swarm the court and shoot hoops with a couple of NBA players. “This court is a vital addition to our organization,” said Fitzgerald. “The court will bring fun and great joy to our children and serves as a symbol to the children of our community that the Thunder cares about them and su...
