I'm all for it! Reminds me of road trips with my grandpa’s old Chevy. And it’s great for those quick naps at charging stations.

Nah, it's a gimmick. There's a reason modern cars have bucket seats, better support and safety. It’s a step backwards.

I can see the appeal as a parent. A place to change diapers on the go and easy access to the back seat? Sign me up!

The idea is interesting, but I worry about safety. In a crash, what happens to that middle passenger? Are there even seatbelts?

I think it’s great for making the most of space in a compact EV. It’s thinking outside the box… or inside the box, as it were!

Nice idea, but I imagine it'll only be a hit in some markets. It won't catch on in places with stricter safety regulations.

Ride sharing could be changed forever by this. What if you picked up three passengers up front instead of just one?!

I'm skeptical. I think it'd make spirited driving less exciting without bucket side bolsters.

Love it! Car interiors are in need of a shake up. Every car doesn’t need the same boring layout, right?

Interesting, but I'll pass. I drive and like my personal space, this would feel cramped on long trips.

It was a deal breaker for me, cars have storage by the driver for a reason. long drives with no storage next to me was just annoying and frustrating.
Can the Kia EV5 match Tesla’s range and charging network?

No way. But when it comes to range and charging, Tesla’s still king. Kia is always going to be playing catch up until they can match that Supercharger network.

I think Kia's got a shot. Their ranges are competitive, and really, most people don’t need 400+ miles of range for daily driving.

It's not just about how far you can go, it's about how fast you can charge, and how readily available charging is. If Kia can get fast charging right and work with the right networks, they could really threaten Tesla.

The Tesla network is great, but it's not the only game in town anymore. Other charging networks are expanding fast as more EVs take to the road. All Kia has to do is ensure their cars get along with all of them.

Range anxiety is so 2020. The EV5 has more than 500 km range, which is enough for most people. And Kia's cars are a lot more affordable than Tesla's.
Can the Kia EV5 match Tesla’s range and charging network?

And let's be real, Tesla's still years ahead in software and charging integration. Until Kia can make it as simple as Tesla, they’re not competing.
Can the Kia EV5 match Tesla’s range and charging network?
03 January 2025 11:54
If I had to choose, I’d take Kia’s build quality over a few more miles of range any day. Kia has the reliability, Tesla has the numbers.

It's not a fair comparison. Tesla has been in the EV game way longer. Kia has a few years to go but I bet they will close the gap significantly.

Does a few miles of range matter when the EV5 looks so much cooler? I would rather to arrive in style with 20 miles less of range.
