Overview
The Kia EV5 will come to the UK in 2025, where it will sit alongside the petrol-engined Kia Sportage as a family SUV that will rival the likes of the Ford Explorer.
The new machine is the third model in Kia’s bespoke E-GMP line-up to be revealed. It was first shown at the Chengdu motor show in April, when it was described as a car designed for China. But Kia has now confirmed that it will also be sold globally – including the UK.
The EV5 will arrive after the production version of the smaller Kia EV3 and will sit between that and the flagship Kia EV9 in Kia’s line-up of electric SUVs. It shares a number of design cues with those models, but features its own interpretation of Kia’s ‘Tiger face’ grille and has its wheels pushed to the corners to maximise interior space.
The new SUV will use a modified version of the Hyundai Motor Group’s modular E-GMP platform, which underpins all of Kia’s bespoke EV models. Unlike the 800V system used on the Kia EV6 and EV9, the EV5 will use a 400V architecture, which will reduce costs but mean it won’t be able to charge as quickly.
While Chinese market cars will be produced in that country, machines for the rest of the world will be produced in Korea – and there will be significant technical differences between them in terms of battery size and chemistry.
Terms
Monthly rentals based on a 48 month personal contract hire agreement with an example deposit of £399.00 taken by direct debit 5 days after delivery of the car. A larger deposit than the example shown may be given and this will reduce the monthly rental. Rentals based on 10,000 miles per annum. No set up fees apply. The first rental of the agreement commences by direct debit one month from the date of delivery. All figures include VAT at the current rate and one year's road tax. Full detailed quotations on any model including are available if required by request. Quotations for all other derivatives available of each make and model illustrated on Autobell are also available by request. Autobell quotations are introduced by Carn Vehicle Contracts Ltd (FCA no: 658611). Once an order has been placed and finance approved by the banks, the interest rate agreed on that date will be honoured for 3 months. If after this date the car has not arrived from the manufacturer the finance agreement lapses and a new quotation with the current rate of interest at that time will be provided.
