Our take on this /// Verdict
The Kia EV3 is a game-changer in the compact electric SUV segment, and my experience with it has been nothing short of impressive. This vehicle has already garnered significant accolades, including the Best Car Below 40,000 at the 2024 Golden Steering Wheel Awards, and its clear why. The EV3 combines stylish design, ample space, and cutting-edge technology, making it a compelling choice for those looking for a sustainable and feature-rich vehicle. The interior is sleek, with a nearly 30-inch combined widescreen display and multi-adjustable ambient lighting, which enhances the driving experience. The vehicles innovative features, such as the i-Pedal 3.0 regenerative braking system and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) charging, add to its versatility and efficiency. With its segment-leading range and fast-charging capabilities, the EV3 is poised to be a top contender in the Indian market.
Price
The Kia EV3 is expected to be launched in India in late 2025, with a starting price around Rs 30 lakh (ex-showroom). When you factor in the various taxes and registration costs, the on-road price could range from Rs 35 lakh to Rs 40 lakh, depending on the state and any additional features or variants chosen. Given its feature-packed profile, advanced technology, and the brands reputation for quality, the EV3 seems to offer good value for money. The price point positions it as a premium alternative to other electric SUVs in the market, such as the MG ZS EV and the Tata Curvv EV, making it an attractive option for those willing to invest in a high-quality electric vehicle.

Kia has launched the EV3 in Europe, touting it as a compact electric SUV with segment-leading range and affordability. The EV3 comes with two battery options: a 58.3 kWh battery for up to 267 miles and an 81.4 kWh battery for up to 372 miles on a single charge. Kia has fine-tuned the EV3 for European roads, ensuring maximum performance in various conditions. I think this could be a game-changer for Kia in the European market.

This accolade highlights the EV3s balance of range, technology, and affordability. The EV3 features advanced tech like a 30-inch widescreen display and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology, making it a compelling choice for tech-savvy buyers.

The American-spec model is expected to start at under $35,000, making it an attractive option for those looking for an affordable electric SUV.

The Kia EV3 features a modern and eco-friendly interior design, including sustainable materials like recycled fabric and PET plastics. The interior is dominated by a ~30-inch widescreen display that includes a 12.3-inch gauge cluster, a 5-inch climate control panel, and a 12.3-inch infotainment display. This design approach enhances both practicality and environmental sustainability. I believe the use of sustainable materials will resonate well with environmentally conscious buyers.

Kias EV3 is set to arrive in the UK later in 2024, with pricing starting at £32,995 for the smaller battery model. The EV3 sits on a modified version of the E-GMP platform, offering front-wheel drive with a single motor, although a dual-motor, four-wheel drive version is planned for later. The cars compact size and big battery capacity make it an impressive offering. I think the EV3s affordability and features make it a lot of car for the money.
Mileage
Monday, 18 November 2024 09:09 AM
The mileage of the Kia EV3 in India is one of its standout features. With two battery pack options available a standard 58.3 kWh battery and a long-range 81.4 kWh battery the EV3 offers a claimed WLTP range of up to 600 km on a single charge for the long-range variant. This range is highly competitive and should easily meet the daily driving needs of most users. In real-world conditions, you can expect a range of around 500-550 km, which is still very impressive. The fast-charging capability, which can charge the battery from 10 to 80 percent in just 31 minutes, further enhances the vehicles practicality. This combination of range and charging speed makes the EV3 an excellent choice for both city driving and occasional long trips.
