It's one of the latest models in the Kia family of electric-powered SUVs. A fresh new subcompact EV with exceptional styling, features, and technology that is affordable too. This new affordable EV is changing the game for those who want to make the change into a fully-electric car.
First there was the Kia EV6 and then the award-winning Kia EV9. The new EV3 rounds out the family with an electric vehicle that slots in at the entry-point of the Kia EV family but that doesn't shortchange it at all. This new all-electric Kia is plenty capable.
Following Kia's design ethos, "Opposites United," the EV3 utilizes the Hyundai Motor Group's electric global modular platform (E-GMP). It is clearly an innovative, progressive and accessible design allowed by the EV3's E-GMP. This bold design is aimed at those with an adventurous mindset and who value simple practicality.
Start with the bold progressive exterior aesthetic and then move to the open, practical and innovative space-maximizing interior. The elegance is visible via the selection of materials and their application. Kia's goal is to deliver a relevant and meaningful vehicle to their customers. With the all new Kia EV3, the company is delivering on a promise of a flagship vehicle experience for all.
The EV3's dynamic silhouette combines a spacious cabin with a long sloping roofline and hatchback-style rear glass. The muscular exterior features crisp creases and folded surfaces for a distinctive look like no other. This includes an aggressive stance, bold wheel arches and a full rear boot that lends an air of authenticity to the EV3 package.
The appealing interior of the new EV3 is filled with soft-touch material and innovative sustainables that lend a feeling of appeal and spaciousness at the same time. It includes a 12.3-inch infotainment screen that allows the driver to watch things like Netflix, TikTok and YouTube while in park or a stationary position. Once you get in the habit, you'll forget you are charging your car.
This isn't exactly the interior you might have imagined when you heard affordable or entry-level. This is because Kia is serious when it set its goal to provide sustainable mobility solutions for everyone.
The new Kia EV3 is powered by a single electric motor driving the front wheels. It is a 201 horsepower electric motor delivering 209 lb-ft of torque. It's just what you need for your daily drives and long-range excursions. Zero-to-60 comes in 7.5 seconds. Kia's iPedal 3.0 allows for one pedal driving. Drive in a traditional manner with the accelerator, and just lift your foot off to allow the EV3 to slow down to a complete stop.
The EV3 will be available with a choice of 58.3 or 81.4 kilowatt-hour battery and a state-of-the-art 400-volt charging architecture. With a DC Fast Charger, drivers may charge the vehicle from 10 to 80 percent in just over 30 minutes. The EV3 can also be used for car-to-grid charging to power a refrigerator during an outage.
Last but not least, the Kia EV3 has an all-electric range of 267-375 miles* depending on the battery size, trim level, and driving style. The standard range model has the 58.3 kWh battery we mentioned and this comes in with an expected range of 270 miles*, while the long range model has the 81.3 kWh battery and an expected range of up to 375 miles*.
This brief overview barely scratches the surface of everything the new Kia EV3 has to offer. There's obviously so much more to learn. That's why we recommend visiting Napleton's Kia of Carmel to see the Kia EV3 along with the rest of the Kia EV lineup up close and personal.
