Kia is going small: there will be a Kia EV2

So, let’s take a look at the electric treats that Kia has in store for us at the annual ‘Investors Day’. They’re pulling one electric rabbit after another out of their hat, and this time it’s the turn of the EV2 – the latest addition to Kia’s electric family.

Lots of news from Korea

Note: Kia has big plans for an electric future, aiming to sell 1.6 million electric vehicles annually by 2030. That’s a big challenge, but Kia is determined to lead the electric revolution. And they not only go big, but also small. Because now the good EV2 is coming, the answer to the e-208 and ID2, and maybe even an electric rival to the Kia Rio.

Kia’s ambitious electrification plans also include a variety of hybrid models, with 6 new models planned for this year and another 8 by 2026. It’s important to note that these plans are not exclusive to Europe, so availability of these models may vary depending on region.

As part of their global strategy, Kia continues to focus on expanding their electric and hybrid offering. While the announcements at Kia’s Investor Day are promising, it’s important for consumers to stay informed about the availability and details of different models in their area. In short, Kia’s commitment to electrification is evident in their future plans, but the exact rollout of these models may vary depending on market demand and conditions.

The Kia EV2 is a refreshing addition

The Kia EV2 announcement adds a refreshing element to the European fleet, as almost all electric vehicles in the B segment currently come from European manufacturers. With the arrival of the EV2, Kia offers a welcome alternative to European consumers looking for an electric vehicle in this segment. This move marks an important step for Kia as it positions them as a serious player in the growing electric vehicle market in Europe.

The success of the EV6 and the surprisingly high sales numbers of the EV9 set the right tone for electric Kia in Europe. We’d like the green EV2.
