I’ll tell you what I got that I don’t think has been mentioned. - Replaced the OEM tires with 225/50ZR /17 XL Michelin Pilot Sport 5. XL gives you extra strong side walls. It drops the car a 1/2 inch and gives it a better stance. Plus, these tires are fantastic. I still get great range, I don’t notice a difference in the speedo, and the tires give a lot more confidence. I’m thinking of taking it to a track in the near future. https://www.michelinman.com/auto/tires/michelin-pilot-sport-5 - Replaced all light bulbs with LED of the same theoretical wattage, but because they are LED it is saving some energy. - I have a wireless dongle, but I hate lag and issues so I ended up purchasing a legit audio routing cable from anker via amazon https://a.co/d/0a8TMt6G This is safer and i can cap my battery charge at 90% to not overcharge. I found i was charging anyways. I have the dongle sitting there, just in case. - I am about to change the front camber adjusting bolts and control arm bushings so I can adjust the camber for better turn-in and avoid any lag from the stock bushings which feel soft as hell with all the lag we get when turning with the weight transfer from the heavy load. https://whitelineperformance.com/us/search/popular-parts-for-2025-kia-niro-ev-wave?srsltid=AfmBOorLFXtcIX5Fp-G6OjhWm7gZJ9THBRGGNOpfPj4LmdGu3pTSeeQ9 Like others have suggested, get a camera system. Both front and rear. After that upgrade to a solid AGM battery.
Connect it via a cord only, via a USB outlet in the center console only (try top and bottom), then click the “menu” button on the trackpad near your right leg, then select “ApplePlay” at the bottom of the screen. If that doesn’t work, you need a new cord (Anker is best https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DB6Z8Y5K ) Mine doesn’t work over Bluetooth and it sucks so bad. I can only play music over Bluetooth - no Google maps/Waze
I had issues with an iPhone 17 and a cheapo USB A to C cable in my 2022 Z71. Changed to an Anker cable and no problems since. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DB6Z8Y5K?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
