Our review of the Kia EV3

Compiled with the help of AI from the sources listed; facts checked automatically. We have not driven this car.

The Kia EV3 is a compact electric crossover and, according to Kia's June 2026 price list, costs from €36,995 on the road (58.3 kWh Air). The WLTP range is 436 km with the 58.3 kWh battery and up to 605 km with the 81.4 kWh battery; the Air uses 14.9 kWh/100 km. The EV3 comes in 14 versions, up to €55,895.

ANWB gave the EV3 58.3 kWh Plus an ANWB Score of 7.7 and praises its frugal energy use and long warranty. Criticism from ANWB and Autozine includes tight rear space for adults, very sensitive warning systems and DC fast charging, which ANWB calls slower than average. In 2025 Euro NCAP gave four stars with standard equipment.

Buy it if…

  • you want a compact electric car with a long WLTP range (up to 605 km with the large battery)
  • the people in the back are mostly children (ANWB finds rear space for adults disappointing)
  • you want an efficient car: ANWB measured 17.1 kWh/100 km in its test
  • you want to tow: up to 1,000 kg (81.4 kWh, front-wheel drive) or 1,500 kg (all-wheel drive)

Skip it if…

  • you regularly carry adults in the back; ANWB and Autozine find rear space disappointing
  • fast charging matters most to you: 10 to 80% took 29 minutes in the ANWB test, slower than average
  • you dislike frequent driver-assistance warnings; ANWB and Autozine find them tuned too sensitively

Best pick

EV3 58,3 kWh Air: At €36,995 on the road (June 2026 price list) the 58.3 kWh Air is the cheapest in the EV3 line-up and has the same 150 kW (204 hp), 283 Nm, 436 km WLTP range and 29-minute charge (10 to 80%) as the Plus, which costs €1,400 more. ANWB tested the Plus, not the Air.

Pros

  • ANWB measured efficient energy use: 17.1 kWh/100 km in its test and 14.1 kWh/100 km in a sunny comparison test.
  • Autozine calls the range with the large battery long.
  • According to Autozine, the EV3 rides and feels as comfortable and refined as a larger car.
  • ANWB calls the infotainment and connectivity up to date and the range of comfort and safety systems broad.
  • In its comparison with the Skoda Elroq, ANWB finds the EV3 more fun to drive, with more steering feedback.
  • ANWB calls the warranty terms long.

Cons

  • According to ANWB and Autozine, the driver-monitoring and assistance warnings are tuned very sensitively and quickly become annoying.
  • ANWB measured 29 minutes for DC fast charging from 10 to 80%, which it calls slower than average.
  • ANWB and Autozine find rear headroom and legroom disappointing for adults; according to Autozine the hard backs of the front seats bother rear passengers.
  • According to ANWB, lighting and chassis technology are basic and no adaptive dampers are on the options list.
  • According to ANWB, the rear-window closing force exceeds the ANWB limit, which matters when carrying children.

Space and dimensions

The EV3 is 4.300 m long, 1.850 m wide and 1.560 m high, with a 2.68 m wheelbase and five seats. The boot is 460 litres, or 1,251 litres with the rear seats folded. ANWB and Autozine find rear space for adults disappointing.

Motor and performance

The front-wheel-drive versions deliver 150 kW (204 hp) and 283 Nm and reach 100 km/h in 7.5 to 7.9 s; top speed is 170 km/h. The all-wheel-drive versions have 195 kW (265 hp) and 385 Nm (6.6 s); the GT has 215 kW (292 hp) and 468 Nm (5.7 s).

Range and charging

The WLTP range is 436 km (58.3 kWh Air and Plus), 414 km (Plus Advanced), 605 km (81.4 kWh Air and Plus) and 563 km (81.4 kWh with 19-inch wheels). The AWD versions reach 501 to 572 km. DC charging peaks at 101 kW (58.3 kWh) or 128 kW (81.4 kWh); 10 to 80% takes about 29 and 31 minutes respectively on a 150 kW charger, per the price list. AC charging is 11 kW; 22 kW is optional via the EV Tech Pack (€1,995) and not available on the Air and GT-Line Business Edition.
