5. EV REVIEW: WHAT CAR?

Kia EV3

Kia has lost its soul – but not in the way you might think. You see, this is the Kia EV3, which replaced the Soul EV as the South Korean brand's smallest electric car. The EV3 sits below the Kia Niro EV, EV6 and EV9 in the car maker's electric SUV line-up, and you can see a strong family resemblance between the EV3 and EV9. On paper, things looks good for the EV3. Its starting price compares well with that of other similar-sized electric SUVs. What's more, the version with the longest range can officially travel up to 375 miles – farther than any other electric Kia.
