I like how the Kia EV3 looks.
-
There’s something really retro about it, the interior especially, the logo being off centre is a callback to cars from the 80-90s
-
KIA are killing it, looooove this
-
I quite like this car. Definitely a contender for my next car.
-
There are just so many EV’s coming out in the market that it’s really difficult when to buy. It’s a good looking car too!
-
This is such a unique and good looking vehicle...clean lines and not overstyled. Really like the thoughtful touches both inside and out. Can definitely see myself driving one. Keep up the excellent reviews.

Laptop? No, that's for a KFC sharing bucket!

Hyundai/KIA & Tesla are winning the (non-Chinese) EV transition.

5:54 The gap is there for good reason, the car comes with reclining seats, theres afew videos on the internet where one of the seats is reclined and the other isn’t. The seats were not reclined when Doug was walking around the car. Reclining the seats may also help allows a touch more headroom. Reclining rear seats is a feature that’s easy to forget but a good one to have nonetheless.

Got a Kia Niro EV2 - great car. To all the EV haters - just try driving one - great seamless power delivery - smooth drive all way through. As long as you got a driveway to charge up safely no real problems. Yes long journeys need a little forward planning but bo biggy whilst ya grab lunch/take a break. Would never go back unless for ££ reasons. converted Petrol head biker 👍👍

Huge respect to kia. They have turned their perception. Making great cars lately
-
Thanks Doug for another considered review. Really like the EV3’s exterior and interior. This could well be a replacement for our ID3, at the end of the year.

Excellent review & car. Disappointed that remains FWD and probably prone to torque steer especially in the wet. Will salivate over a potential GT or “N” spec AWD version in the future. Ioniq 5N is nice but just too big. This is perfectly sized for a hot EV. Only other disappointment is the slowish charge speeds. Other 400v cars now do 150-170kW, (and Tesla 240+ kW with 400v!), so no excuse really but the charge curve is more relevant than charge speed, so let’s see.

This is a beautiful EV Exterior is OK, acceptable. Interior looks excellent ; simple-clean-tidy dashboard layout, horizontal display. And drive shifter on the column frees up center console area from unnecessary clutter.
-
Good looking car! Well done KIA!
-
Can't understand why the guy makes a comparison with the Hyundai Kona EV but not the Kia e-Niro.
-
Most probably my next véhicule
-
looks awesome, Kia's design are hitting the mark
-
I love EV5 that launched in Thailand recently, perfect size around 30 cm. longer than EV3 and look fantastic.
-
looks really neat.. like a mini EV9, interior with felt material makes it feel like a living room :face-blue-smiling:
