Insurance rating class (Germany)
Always correct for age. A group of younger cars is not automatically more reliable
GDV rating class: Niro
According to the GDV rating-class register (rate year 2024), Niro has KH 16-20 (scale 10-25), VK 20-26 (scale 10-34), TK 23-29 (scale 10-33). Note: this is an index figure or rating class, an insurance statistic about the whole model. It is not a chance of defects and not a prediction for this car.
Inspections by country and age
This table shows, per age, how many cars of this model fail inspection, by country. An index of 100 is that country's average for that age.
| Age | Netherlands | United Kingdom | Czechia | Ireland | NO |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0-2 years | 26.9% failed (429 of 1598) | No data | No data | No data | No data |
| 3-5 years | 23.5% failed (9198 of 39054) | 12.4% failed (7809 of 62857) | No data | 17.2% failed (260 of 1508) | 14.5% failed (686 of 4714) |

Czechia only counts serious defects, severity B or C. The Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Norway count every inspection with a real defect.
Finland is not in this table. Finland counts defect points, not cars with a defect.
