From Transport Evolved.
Kate’s Kia Niro EV just passed 60,000 miles – and astonishing the nay-sayers in the comment section who told her when she bought it that it would be scrap by now, she’s still driving it.
But after 60,000 miles, how’s it holding together – and does Kate wish she’d held out for something faster charging, faster accelerating, or just plain sexier?
