The overview
Kia’s latest electric offering is the EV4 compact sedan. That's right, while most automakers are churning out SUVs galore, Kia appears committed to giving buyers reasonably-priced car alternatives. The base Light trim will use a 58.3-kWh battery while the Wind and GT-Line will make use of an 81.4-kWh long-range version. All trims will have a 201-hp electric motor and front-wheel drive. Kia is estimating the Light will be good for about 235 miles of driving range, while the long-range battery should result in about 330 miles. The interior layout appears to mimic the EV9 SUV, with dual 12.3-inch display screens, a 5-inch climate screen, and a column-mounted, twist-action gear selector. Kia’s Highway Driving Assist active driving assistance system will come standard. The K4's US launch has been delayed indefinitely.
