The compact SUV arrives first as a long‑range front‑drive model on the 400‑volt E‑GMP platform with 150 kW fast charging.

Overview

  • Deliveries start in mid‑November, with the limited GT‑Line Launch Edition prioritized for the quickest handover.
  • The launch setup combines an 81.4 kWh battery and a 160 kW front motor for up to 530 km WLTP, 0–100 km/h in 8.4 seconds and a 165 km/h top speed.
  • DC fast charging peaks at 150 kW for a claimed 10–80% in about 30 minutes thanks to battery preconditioning, while AC charging is 11 kW and Vehicle‑to‑Load is available.
  • German pricing is €45,990 for Air, €48,990 for Earth and €51,990 for GT‑Line, with the GT‑Line Launch Edition at €52,990 including all options and a stated €2,880 advantage.
  • Kia plans additional variants for 2026, including a smaller‑battery standard‑range model and other drivetrains, though Europe‑specific availability has not been confirmed.
