Kia

Kia has officially released pricing for its latest electric vehicle, the EV3, in the UK and the Netherlands, giving us a clearer picture of how its compact SUV will fit in the European EV market.

In the UK, the base EV3, equipped with a 58.3 kWh battery, starts at $45,312. The Dutch can expect to pay $43,340 for the same model. If you're looking for more range, the 81.4 kWh battery variant goes for $49,432 in the UK and $48,611 in the Netherlands.

With the Dutch price list, we also got a peek at the final WLTP ranges. The 58.3 kWh battery comes in three trims – Air, Plus, and Plus Advanced – with ranges of 267 miles for the Air and Plus, and 254 miles for the Plus Advanced. The larger battery is available across these three trims, but also the even better equipped GT-Line and GT-PlusLine. The Air and Plus trims with the larger battery boast an impressive range of 373 miles, while the other three come in at 355 miles.

Powering the EV3, regardless of battery size, is a 150 kW electric motor mounted on the front axle. While this isn't the same rear-axle setup seen in Kia's larger E-GMP-based models, it still delivers a respectable 0-62 mph time of 7.4 seconds for the standard battery and 7.7 seconds for the long-range variant. It's worth pointing out that the EV3 uses a 400-volt architecture, not the 800-volt system found in Kia's higher-end models like the EV6.

Measuring 169.29 inches in length, 72.83 inches in width, and 61.42 inches in height, the EV3 has a wheelbase of 105.51 inches. The trunk offers 16.2 ft³ of space, plus an additional 0.88 ft³ frunk under the hood for storing items like charging cables.

Kia has also confirmed that all-wheel drive and GT versions of the EV3 are in the pipeline, slated for release in 2026. With its competitive pricing, decent range, and practical design, the EV3 is shaping up to be a strong contender in the growing European EV market.

No wonder the Chinese are building factories in europe to build sub 30k cars for us, since Koreans can't. Shame really.
