In just a few years, Kia has established itself as one of the global leaders in electric vehicles, but now it has to consolidate and expand that position with new and even better EVs. It has trademarked all the model nameplates from EV1 to EV9, and it expects to build most of them, but one in particular seems destined for greatness. The Kia EV3 will be a direct rival to the Volvo EX30 or the electric version of the Alfa Romeo Junior, and it is expected to cost around $32,000.
The latter would allow it to go 350 miles or more, and it would give the EV3 a lot more range than its rival from Volvo, which can’t do more than 275 miles. The smaller 58 kWh pack wouldn’t take it much more than 250 miles, so it would be behind the Volvo. However, given the change from 800 to 400 volts, Kia could choose to create a new battery for the EV3, and if it does, its capacity will fall somewhere between the two aforementioned packs.
