Is Kia's boxy EV5 on the money or not?
The Kia EV5 is a boxy, upright car that's very different from many sleek, aerodynamic EVs you'll find out there. The design choice is highly polarising: some applaud this bold, futuristic design, others are not entirely convinced. The boxy shape is good for interior space, but it may hurt range efficiency. It's a smaller version of the larger Kia EV9, having that style in a more compact package. It has a blanked out grille, slim LED lighting and angular body lines. It’s an approach that stands out in a sea of curvy crossovers, but it won’t suit everyone’s taste. As such, its design is mired in a debate about the balance of form and function in EV design and whether such a bold aesthetic will age well or date quickly.
I love it! I like that we have an EV that doesn't look like a squished jelly bean. Its boxy design screams practicality and makes it stand out as unique on the road.
