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.
Will the Kia EV5’s lower price point disrupt the electric SUV market?

Absolutely! With Kia's pricing, other manufacturers are going to have to start playing ball. Someone had to make a decent EV that doesn't cost a house.

I'm skeptical. It's got to be a catch somewhere. Or maybe it'll have less range, or cheaper materials. Isn't that what you get for what you pay for?

That is exactly what the EV market needs. For too long, Tesla has been the only game in town. It will be good for everyone to have some real competition.

Sure, lower price is great, but it’s not everything. How about long term reliability and resale value? Kia has a lot to do to prove itself in the EV world.

For first time EV buyers it will definitely shake things up, I think. When you’re not breaking the bank, it’s a lot easier to take the plunge.

It's a smart move by Kia. Just like they did with gas cars, they’re putting themselves as the value option in EVs. Why not now? It worked before.

Price isn't everything. Tesla still has the brand cachet, and the tech edge. The high end market won't budge, but Kia will get the budget conscious buyers.

It could be a huge deal for fleet sales and ride-sharing companies. Still decent quality, but cheaper EV? They'll be all over that.

I'm excited about it. The faster we can transition away from gas cars, the more affordable EVs are. Kia may be at the forefront of this.

It’s very disruptive, but let’s see how it goes. Do you remember when everyone was convinced the Chevy Bolt was going to change everything? Yeah, me neither.

The EV5's tech is really something Kia's stepped up from the last few years. It's nice to see they're not just copying Tesla's giant iPad approach and that rotating display is pretty cool.

Fancy, but I bet it will be a nightmare to use while driving. I’ll take physical buttons for climate control any day.

The tech seems solid, but I think it all comes down to the software. If Kia can get the user interface right and keep it up to date, they may have a winner.

I like the amount of customization options. I like seeing a car you can make interior to your preferences beyond just the dark mode.

It’s still playing catch-up to Tesla, but it’s good. They will always be second best until they can match that seamless phone to car integration.

I actually like Kia's approach. Sometimes, Tesla’s minimalism can be frustrating. A mix of touchscreen and physical controls is nice to have.

In pictures, the tech looks great, but I wonder how it’ll hold up long term. Will it be outdated in a couple of years when the next big thing comes along?

But I'm happy to see an EV with a normal steering wheel instead of a yoke. Sometimes simple is better.
