Kia Unveils EV4 and Concept EV2: A Bold Step in Electric Innovation

Kia has officially introduced the highly anticipated EV4 electric sedan, alongside the striking Concept EV2, showcasing its commitment to cutting-edge electric vehicle (EV) technology. The EV4, a sleek and aerodynamic sedan, is positioned as a game-changer in the brand’s growing EV lineup. Meanwhile, the Concept EV2 provides a glimpse into Kia’s vision for future compact electric mobility.

The Kia EV4, which will be available in both standard and long-range versions, features a sophisticated electric powertrain that prioritises efficiency and performance. The long-range variant boasts an impressive 630 km range per charge, thanks to its advanced battery technology. Additionally, its ultra-fast charging capability allows the battery to be recharged from 10% to 80% in just 31 minutes, ensuring convenience for long-distance travelers.

Designed with aerodynamics in mind, the EV4 achieves a remarkable drag coefficient of 0.23 Cd, enhancing its efficiency and overall performance. Kia has also focused on delivering an immersive in-car experience, equipping the EV4 with a 30-inch widescreen display that integrates entertainment options such as Netflix and YouTube, catering to modern drivers and passengers seeking enhanced connectivity.

In parallel with the EV4’s launch, Kia has revealed the Concept EV2, a bold interpretation of the brand’s future compact EV offerings. Expected to be one of the most affordable models in Kia’s electric lineup, the Concept EV2 is set to make its market debut in 2026. While detailed specifications remain under wraps, the concept signals Kia’s intent to expand its EV portfolio across various segments.

The unveiling of these models underscores Kia’s aggressive push toward electrification, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable and technologically advanced mobility solutions. With the EV4 set to redefine electric sedans and the Concept EV2 paving the way for affordable EVs, Kia continues to position itself as a leader in the rapidly evolving electric vehicle landscape.

The EV4 sedan will be produced at Kia’s Autoland Gwangmyeong EVO Plant in Korea, while the hatchback will be produced only in Slovakia, primarily targeting sales in Europe. Production will commence in mid-March for the Korean sedan model, and the second half of the year for the Europe-only EV4 hatchback. Production for North America and other regions is planned for later in the year.
