Nick Tragianis: In the realm of affordable hybrids, the Toyota Prius is pretty much the de-facto choice – and for a good reason. The quirks aren’t for everyone, but the Prius is exceptionally reliable and gifted at delivering stellar fuel economy. Plus, it’s available in a few different flavours – there’s the standard variant and a plug-in hybrid, plus the compact Prius C and the roomier Prius V.

Naturally, it’s hardly a surprise the Prius has seen its fair share of challengers – the most recent ones from two Korean upstarts: Hyundai and Kia. In our books, the Ioniq already proved itself a worthy alternative to the standard Prius, but those seeking more space aren’t left out. Enter the all-new Kia Niro. Like the Ioniq, it’s out for Prius blood. The question is, can it also out-normal the aging Prius V?
