Overview
- Kia unveiled GT versions of the EV3, EV4 and EV5 at the Brussels Motor Show, each adding dual‑motor all‑wheel drive and chassis tuning for higher performance.
- The EV3 GT and EV4 GT deliver about 215 kW and 0–100 km/h in roughly 5.6–5.7 seconds, while the EV5 GT is rated at about 298 hp with a 6.2‑second sprint.
- Performance hardware includes bespoke suspension with adaptive dampers and performance tyres; EV3/EV4 add a simulated gearshift, while the EV5 focuses on adaptive suspension with road‑preview capability.
- GT production for Europe is slated to begin in Q2 2026, and the EV2 will enter production in Slovakia in Q1 2026, starting with the Standard Range before Long Range and GT‑Line later in the year.
- Kia positioned the EV2 at around €30,000 with 42.2 kWh and 61.0 kWh batteries (WLTP 317 km and 448 km), and Australia says EV5 GT will not be sold there as EV3/EV4 GT remain under study and EV2 imports face currency‑driven hurdles; an EV2 GT is under consideration and would likely be front‑wheel drive.
