Comfort
The Jeep Wrangler offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Kia Niro.
The Jeep Wrangler will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Kia Niro.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Jeep Wrangler as you will with the Kia Niro, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.
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 Jeep Wrangler or the Kia Niro, it's going to cost you about the same.
Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Destination Charge for the Jeep Wrangler is much higher than that for the Kia Niro.
Dimensions
Since the Jeep Wrangler is much wider than the Kia Niro, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
The Jeep Wrangler is slightly shorter than the Kia Niro, which may make it easier to park.
Drivetrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Jeep Wrangler does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Kia Niro.
Handling
The Jeep Wrangler has the same turning radius as the Kia Niro, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Jeep Wrangler greatly out-muscles the Kia Niro.
Utility
The Jeep Wrangler has less seating than the Kia Niro, making the Kia Niro the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers.
The Jeep Wrangler has significantly less cargo capacity than the Kia Niro.
Warranty
The basic warranty of the Jeep Wrangler is not as nearly as extensive as that of the Kia Niro.
